New functionality
Proposed functionality
Implement a mechanism for generating JSON schema for device type and related definitions. This could be a Django management command (e.g.
manage.py buildschema), the output of which would be included with each NetBox release.Use case
The NetBox devicetype library includes JSON schema for validating device and module type definitions. These definitions must be kept up-to-date with NetBox itself, which is currently a manual process. Generating the schema automatically and publishing it with each NetBox release will remove this administrative burden.
Additionally, once we implement #4347, schema can be generated for all relevant models as an additional resource.
