Datasource GIT sync subfolder only #14272

Open PieterL75 opened 11 months ago

PieterL75 commented 11 months ago

NetBox version

v3.6.5

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Allow a DataSource to sync only a subfolder of a repositry, into the 'root' of the DataSource. example: Git repo has all files stored under config/devicenames.txt The datasource sync will store all those files including the path.

A filter/rewrite should be able to sync only the /config/ files and save them as / excluding all other files in the git repo

I suggest this

Use case

My device configurations are stored in git under the "configs" folder. Some tools assume that the files are stored in the root of the DataStore.

Another usecase is where the scripts I use are in a folder of my (huge) git repo. I would like to sync only the scripts relevant. Those scripts are in a subfolder /netbox-tools/scripts/somefolder/*

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None
