configuration

This module is not usable until the zabbix user and zabbix password are specified either in a pillar or in the minion's config file. Zabbix url should be also specified.

zabbix.user: Admin
zabbix.password: mypassword
zabbix.url: http://127.0.0.1/zabbix/api_jsonrpc.php

Connection arguments from the minion config file can be overridden on the CLI by using arguments with _connection_ prefix.
