Does support to initialize SimpleInventory with native objects still work?

Does support to initialize SimpleInventory with native objects still work? nornir.version is 3.3.0

I'm trying various things, but I'm getting an error.

1. TypeError: SimpleInventory.init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'hosts'

   from nornir import InitNornir
   nr = InitNornir(inventory={
   "plugin": "SimpleInventory",
   "options": {
       "hosts": {
           "host1": {
               "username": "user",
               "groups": ["group_a"],
               "data": {"a": 1, "b": 2},
           },
       },
       "groups": {"group_a": {"platform": "linux"}},
       "defaults": {"data": {"a_default": "asd"}},
   }
   })

2. PluginNotRegistered: plugin 'nornir.plugins.inventory.SimpleInventory' is not registered

   
   from nornir import InitNornir
   from nornir.plugins.inventory import SimpleInventory
   from nornir.core.plugins.inventory import InventoryPluginRegister
   InventoryPluginRegister.register("SimpleInventory", SimpleInventory)

nr = InitNornir(inventory={

"plugin": "SimpleInventory",

"plugin": "nornir.plugins.inventory.SimpleInventory",
"options": {
    "hosts": {
        "host1": {
            "username": "user",
            "groups": ["group_a"],
            "data": {"a": 1, "b": 2},
        },
    },
    "groups": {"group_a": {"platform": "linux"}},
    "defaults": {"data": {"a_default": "asd"}},
}

})

Not since 2+ years ago when nornir 3 was released. If you want to create your inventory programmatically you will either need to write your own inventory plugin or leverage some third party one. If I am not mistaken nornir_salt includes one you may be able to leverage.

Closing as this is not a nornir issue.
