Issue Running import script #26

Closed ULHTNetbox closed 1 year ago

ULHTNetbox commented 3 years ago

I've followed the instructions and when I come to run the import script I get the below error message

Traceback (most recent call last): File "./nb-dt-import.py", line 2, in from git import Repo, exc, RemoteProgress ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'git'

Netbox version 2.11.6.

Can anyone help please with resolving the issue?

Thanks

Looks like python is missing a git dependency. Are you executing this in a python virtual env? Have you installed the requirements? (See step 2: https://github.com/minitriga/Netbox-Device-Type-Library-Import#-getting-started)

Alternatively you could try the new docker container implementation and not have to worry about your local python environment, installing dependencies, etc., etc.

I've tried the docker steps and that errors, netbox@netbox-b1:~$ docker build -t netbox-devicetype-import-library . unable to prepare context: unable to evaluate symlinks in Dockerfile path: lstat /home/netbox/Dockerfile: no such file or directory

I've followed the steps, see below. I still get the error.

Okay I'll double check the dockerfile, seems there's some local paths of the creators in there..

Regarding the native implementation, don't use sudo pip.. cause then your using your systems native python env again when you want to be using the venv, which I see you had activated.
