Cant use the device onboarding plugin #90

Open Garrett2532 opened 7 months ago

Garrett2532 commented 7 months ago

I cannot figure out how to use the device onboarding plugin. It comes installed with the lab. I have checked the nautobot_config.py file. It enabled in the plugins section and is configured with no extra parameters. It should show up in the left under plugins, but instead all that is there is installed plugins. When I click on that I see the onboarding plugin but the home button is a different color and nothing happens when I click or hover on it. Most of the other plugins are like this as well.

I started the lab instance with docker run -itd --name nautobot -p 8000:8000 --env NAPALM_USERNAME="demouser" --env NAPALM_PASSWORD="demopass" networktocode/nautobot-lab:latest

This simply comes from the home_view_name of the nautobot app configuration, see here: https://docs.nautobot.com/projects/core/en/latest/development/apps/api/nautobot-app-config/#optional-nautobotappconfig-attributes for details, which those plugins that are shaded on the home icon are not set.

In your included screenshot, in the left navbar, you can see 6 up from "Plugins" is the "Device Lifecycle" navigation.

Ok that makes sense for the grayed out portion of the button, but what about using the plugin itself, how can I do that in the lab?

Just click on Device Lifecycle to see what features and views it provides.

I dont see anything related to the device onboarding plugin.
