Overview
Implement a built-in plugin feature that allows Danbyte to fetch End-of-Life (EoL) states via external APIs. This will enhance the compliance capabilities of Danbyte by automatically seeding Platform data with EoL information and enabling users to create compliance alerts on devices and services.
Purpose
Integrate with EoL data sources (such as https://endoflife.date or similar APIs) to automatically populate and maintain EoL information for platforms, devices, and services within Danbyte's compliance module.
Features
1. Opt-in Plugin Architecture
- Make this an opt-in feature that doesn't interfere with existing deployments
- Implement as a built-in plugin that can be enabled/disabled based on user preferences
- Allow administrators to control whether the feature is active
2. Automatic Data Seeding
- When enabled, the plugin should automatically fetch EoL data from configured APIs
- Seed the Platform data in Danbyte with retrieved EoL information
- Automatically populate EoL dates and status fields during initial setup and periodic updates
3. Compliance Alert Integration
- Enable users to create compliance alerts based on EoL data
- Allow filtering and alerting on devices/services approaching or past their EoL dates
- Support notifications when EoL dates are reached or exceeded
Technical Considerations
- Support multiple EoL API sources (starting with endoflife.date)
- Implement efficient caching and update mechanisms to avoid excessive API calls
- Ensure data consistency between API source and Danbyte database
- Add configuration options for refresh intervals and API selection
- Implement error handling for API failures and data inconsistencies
Success Criteria
- Plugin can be enabled/disabled by administrators
- EoL data is successfully fetched and stored in the Platform data model
- Users can create compliance rules and alerts based on EoL status
- Documentation is provided for configuration and usage
