Project Dead? No support for any current Netbox version? #161

Open darkcloud784 opened 7 months ago

darkcloud784 commented 7 months ago

As the titles questions are asked. Is this project dead? I see no currently netbox version compatibility. I found the following

If anyone's interested, I've done a quick and dirty fixup of the current code to support (at least on my install) Netbox 3.4. 99% of the fixups were in the templates but I've done away with support for V2 of Netbox in my forked copy.

Note the Quick and dirty status of this one. I'm still getting my head round Python/Django/Netbox so I've not used any CI, Linting, tests on the fork at this stage. Just needed to get this one working so I can continue to support a production instance of Netbox with this plugin. A manual install of the package will be required if you're wanting to use my forked copy.

Hope this assists others in some way. When I get more across using the right tools, I might try and get these changes rolled back into the original ntc package.

But this requires manually building, and isn't part of this project as it hasn't been merged or even a PR created for a merge into this repo. Can we see movement on updating this to 3.7.x?

Thanks for the question! It's fair to call it dead. We haven't had that many requests for this because all of our focus on Nautobot.

If you haven't checked out the Nautobot Device Onboarding plugin (or what we call an App), check it out here: https://github.com/nautobot/nautobot-app-device-onboarding. We have some GREAT enhancements coming soon too!

Overall, we'd be happy to transfer ownership of this project to someone else if interested. Otherwise, we are going to make it a public archive in the next few weeks.

Does this also work with netbox? I don't have nautobot and have been using netbox.

@jedelman8 , hello! It would help to have a notice sign informing that the project is dead, I have went through the whole installation process only to find out about this by change looking at the issues!

Supported Netbox releases are documented on the repo's main page.
