# 05 — Collectors
Collectors live in `internal/collector/`.
Core files:
- `internal/collector/registry.go` — connector registry (`redfish`, `ipmi`)
- `internal/collector/redfish.go` — real Redfish connector
- `internal/collector/ipmi_mock.go` — IPMI mock connector scaffold
- `internal/collector/types.go` — request/progress contracts
---
## Redfish Collector (`redfish`)
**Status:** Production-ready.
### Request contract (from server)
Passed through from `/api/collect` after validation:
- `host`, `port`, `username`
- `auth_type=password|token` (+ matching credential field)
- `tls_mode=strict|insecure`
### Discovery
Dynamic — does not assume fixed paths. Discovers:
- `Systems` collection → per-system resources
- `Chassis` collection → enclosure/board data
- `Managers` collection → BMC/firmware info
### Collected data
| Category | Notes |
|----------|-------|
| CPU | Model, cores, threads, socket, status |
| Memory | DIMM slot, size, type, speed, serial, manufacturer |
| Storage | Slot, type, model, serial, firmware, interface, status |
| GPU | Detected via PCIe class + NVIDIA vendor ID |
| PSU | Model, serial, wattage, firmware, telemetry (input/output power, voltage) |
| NIC | Model, serial, port count, BDF |
| PCIe | Slot, vendor_id, device_id, BDF, link width/speed |
| Firmware | BIOS, BMC versions |
### Raw snapshot
Full Redfish response tree is stored in `result.RawPayloads["redfish_tree"]`.
This allows future offline re-analysis without re-collecting from a live BMC.
### Parsing guidelines
When adding Redfish mappings, follow these principles:
- Support alternate collection paths (resources may appear at different odata URLs).
- Follow `@odata.id` references and handle embedded `Members` arrays.
- Deduplicate by serial / BDF / slot+model (in that priority order).
- Prefer tolerant/fallback parsing — missing fields should be silently skipped,
not cause the whole collection to fail.
### Progress reporting
The collector emits progress log entries at each stage (connecting, enumerating systems,
collecting CPUs, etc.) so the UI can display meaningful status.
Current progress message strings are user-facing and may be localized.

## IPMI Collector (`ipmi`)
**Status:** Mock scaffold only — not implemented.
Registered in the collector registry but returns placeholder data.
Real IPMI support is a future work item.
