Open bengelly opened 1 month ago

bengelly commented 1 month ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Via a network page, I can't export to a file (.csv, .xls, .txt, .pdf) information for the following sections :

Who is affected by the problem? Me, as a peering manager working for a major Tier-1. Pretty sure it affects other people.

What is the impact? Loss of time, efficiency and lot of frustration.

Are there security concerns? No.

Are there privacy concerns? No.

Describe the solution you'd like A simple Export button that would propose a file format to choose from.

Do you think this feature will require a formal design? no, seems rather trivial

Describe alternatives you've considered None that comes to mind.

Could this feature request need support from the Admin Committee? Consider if an administrator might need to provide assistance at any point.

What is the proposed priority? not urgent

Provide a rationale for any/all of the above already did.

Additional context N/A.

You can easily do via the API.

I would propose a more general approach enhancing PeeringDB by a query tool as it is impossible to hardcode any query.

Hi @arnoldnipper ,

I do not have coding skills, and believe this feature would benefit the general public hence my request.

To the how, I'll leave that with to decide what is best :-)

Thanks !

API+CSV+JSON is well received as an object standard IMHO.

  • Contact information
  • Public Peering Exchange Points
  • Interconnection Facilities It is highly frustrating to have to copy/paste this and then toy with it.

Hi @martinhannigan !

In an ideal world, sure ! I'd totally agree with that !

However, as mentioned above, I do not have coding skills (like many) and believe this feature would benefit the general public hence my request.

Thanks !
