Struct DiscoveryTarget 

pub struct DiscoveryTarget {
    pub plugin_type: PluginTypeId,
    pub plugin_config: Value,
    pub plugin_config_name: String,
    pub roles: Vec<PluginRole>,
    pub package_identifier: Option<String>,
    pub config_override: Option<Value>,
    pub execution_site: Option<String>,
}

A structured target that tells the autodiscovery controller exactly which plugin config (and role assignments) to create for a discovered software item.

Plugins emit DiscoveryTarget values inside super::DiscoveredSoftware::targets so that the web-API controller can process them generically — without any plugin-specific synthesis logic.

Examples

PHS plugin discovering a GitHub-managed app (fetch releases only; the owner/repo is expressed as the package_identifier override):

let target = DiscoveryTarget {
    plugin_type: plugin_ids::RELEASES_GITHUB.clone(),
    plugin_config: serde_json::json!({
        "tag_strip_prefix": "v",
        "include_prereleases": false,
    }),
    plugin_config_name: "GitHub Releases".to_string(),
    roles: vec![PluginRole::FetchReleases],
    package_identifier: Some("BookLore/BookLore".to_string()),
    config_override: None,
    execution_site: None,
};

Fields

plugin_type: PluginTypeId

Target plugin type (may differ from the discovering plugin).

For example, the PHS plugin discovers software but targets releases_github or package_manager_apt for tracking.

plugin_config: Value

Config JSON for find-or-create of the target plugin config.

The controller will search for an existing active plugin config whose JSON matches this value, or create a new one.

plugin_config_name: String

Display name for auto-created plugin config (e.g. “BookLore/BookLore”).

roles: Vec<PluginRole>

Which roles this target covers.

Typically all three: DetectVersion, FetchReleases, ExecuteUpdate.

package_identifier: Option<String>

Package identifier override (None = same as parent DiscoveredSoftware).

Used when the target plugin needs a different identifier than the discovering plugin’s slug (e.g. PHS slug → APT package name).

config_override: Option<Value>

Per-assignment config override.

execution_site: Option<String>

Execution site hint ("auto" | "agent" | "controller"; None = "auto").

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for DiscoveryTarget

fn clone(&self) -> DiscoveryTarget

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for DiscoveryTarget

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for DiscoveryTarget

fn deserialize<__D>( __deserializer: __D, ) -> Result<DiscoveryTarget, <__D as Deserializer<'de>>::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl PartialEq for DiscoveryTarget

fn eq(&self, other: &DiscoveryTarget) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for DiscoveryTarget

fn serialize<__S>( &self, __serializer: __S, ) -> Result<<__S as Serializer>::Ok, <__S as Serializer>::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Eq for DiscoveryTarget
