nautobot - v1.6.2 - 2023-09-05

Published by gsnider2195 about 1 year ago

Added

#3289 - Added documentation on factory data caching.
#3913 - Added url field to GraphQL objects.
#4201 - Added docs for InterfaceRedundancyGroup.
#4316 - Added management command "nautobot-server populate_platform_network_driver" to help update the Platform.network_driver field in bulk.
#4317 - Added tests for GraphQL url field.

Changed

#3212 - Updated Dynamic Group field filter/child group exclusivity error to be more noticeable.
#3949 - Moved DynamicGroup clean_filter() call from clean() to clean_fields(), which has the impact that it will still be called by full_clean() and validated_save() but no longer called on a simple clean().
#4216 - Changed the rendering of TagFilterField to prevent very slow rendering of pages when large numbers of tags are defined.
#4217 - Added a restriction that two Git repositories with the same remote_url cannot overlap in their provided_contents, as such cases are highly likely to introduce data conflicts.

Fixed

#3949 - Fixed a ValueError when editing an existing DynamicGroup that has invalid filter data.
#3949 - Fixed DynamicGroup.clean_fields() so that it will respect an exclude=["filter"] kwarg by not validating the filter field.
#4262 - Fixed warning message when trying to use bulk edit with no items selected.

Housekeeping

#4331 - Added a "housekeeping" subsection to the release-notes via towncrier.

nautobot - v1.6.0 - 2023-08-08

Published by jathanism about 1 year ago

Nautobot v1.6

This document describes all new features and changes in Nautobot 1.6.

Release Overview

Added

Custom Field "Markdown" Type (#4006)

A new Custom Field type, "Markdown", has been added. Custom fields of this type can store Markdown-formatted text which will be rendered in the web UI.

Caching of Dynamic Groups and Content Types (#4092)

APIs have been added to allow for caching of the results of looking up an object's content-type or Dynamic Group memberships, as well as for looking up the members of a Dynamic Group itself. These caches are disabled by default but can be enabled by configuring the DYNAMIC_GROUPS_MEMBER_CACHE_TIMEOUT and CONTENT_TYPE_CACHE_TIMEOUT settings respectively. Apps (plugins) that make use of dynamic groups should review the documentation for the APIs to determine how and when to make use of the cache for improved performance.

Interface Redundancy Group (#2825)

Interface Redundancy Group model and related views have been added to allow logical grouping of multiple interfaces under a specific interface redundancy protocol (HSRP, VRRP, CARP, and etc).

Installation Metrics (#4047)

A new setting, INSTALLATION_METRICS_ENABLED, has been added to allow Nautobot to send anonymous installation metrics to the Nautobot maintainers. This setting is True by default but can be changed in nautobot_config.py or the NAUTOBOT_INSTALLATION_METRICS_ENABLED environment variable.

If the INSTALLATION_METRICS_ENABLED setting is True, running the post_upgrade or send_installation_metrics management commands will send a list of all installed plugins and their versions, as well as the currently installed Nautobot and Python versions, to the Nautobot maintainers. A randomized UUID will be generated and saved in the DEPLOYMENT_ID setting to anonymously and uniquely identify each installation. The plugin names will be one-way hashed with SHA256 to further anonymize the data sent. This enables tracking the installation metrics of publicly released plugins without disclosing the names of any private plugins.

The following is an example of the data that is sent:

{
    "deployment_id": "1de3dacf-f046-4a98-8d4a-17419080db79",
    "nautobot_version": "1.6.0b1",
    "python_version": "3.10.12",
    "installed_apps": {
        # "example_plugin" hashed by sha256
        "3ffee4622af3aad6f78257e3ae12da99ca21d71d099f67f4a2e19e464453bee7": "1.0.0"
    },
    "debug": true
}

`Platform.network_driver` and related fields (4136)

The Platform model has been enhanced to include a network_driver database field and a network_driver_mappings derived property based on the netutils library. For example, if you set a Platform to have a network_driver value of "cisco_ios", the platform.network_driver_mappings property will return a dictionary containing ansible, hier_config, napalm, netmiko, ntc_templates, pyats, pyntc, and scrapli keys corresponding to this entry. These properties can be referenced via the REST API and GraphQL to assist in developing and maintaining Apps, Jobs, or third-party code that interact with devices by using any of these libraries.

If the default derivations provided by netutils are not suitable for your purposes, you can extend or override them by configuring the NETWORK_DRIVERS system setting.

Python 3.11 Support (#3561)

Nautobot 1.6.0 formally adds support for installation and operation under Python 3.11.

Changed

Additional HIDE_RESTRICTED_UI Effects for Unauthenticated Users (#3646)

When HIDE_RESTRICTED_UI is enabled, unauthenticated users are no longer able to view the OpenAPI (Swagger) UI, the GraphiQL UI, or any configured top/bottom banners. Additionally, the page footer on the login page will not display the Nautobot server hostname in this case.

Increased `Device.asset_tag` maximum length (#3693)

The maximum length of the Device.asset_tag field has been increased from 50 to 100 characters.

Changed Default Python Version for Docker Images (#4029)

The default Python version for Nautobot Docker images has been changed from 3.7 to 3.11.

Removed

Removed Python 3.7 Support (#3561)

As Python 3.7 has reached end-of-life, Nautobot 1.6 and later do not support installation or operation under Python 3.7.

v1.6.0 (2023-08-08)

Added

#4169 - Added environment variable NAUTOBOT_SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE to set the SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE Django setting which expires session cookies when the user closes their browser.
#4184 - Added documentation detailing rack power utilization calculation.

Dependencies

#4204 - Fixed failing Apps CI by downgrading jsonschema<4.18.
#4205 - Fixed failing Apps CI due to missing dependency of toml.

Published by bryanculver over 1 year ago

Added

#3715 - Added ability to specify a parent_bay when creating a Device via the REST API.
#3715 - Added APIViewTestCases.CreateObjectViewTestCase.test_recreate_object_csv generic test, testing the "round-trip" capability of each API endpoint's CSV export and import.

#3742 - Lightened the color of the LoadingWidget text to gray-3.
#3742 - Lightened the color of the skeleton component when loading tables.

#3767 - Enhanced error handling for fetcher in React UI ObjectRetrieveView.
#3785 - Deprecated StatusModel mixin in favor of directly including a StatusField as needed.
#3840 - Changed Job class_path property from <source>/<module>/<ClassName> to simply <module>.<ClassName>.
#3840 - Changed GitRepository slugs to use underscores rather than dashes so they can be used as Python module names.
#3840 - Changed Job module_name for Git-derived Jobs to <git_repository_slug>.jobs.<module>.

Dependencies

#1721 - Removed dependency on django-cacheops.
#3672 - Changed napalm dependency to 4.x release in order to allow Netmiko 4.x to install. Dependency resolution resulted in removing the following packages: ciscoconfparse, deprecat, dnspython, loguru, toml, win32-setctime.

nautobot - v2.0.0-alpha.3 -2023-04-13

Published by bryanculver over 1 year ago

2.0 IPAM Overhaul Alpha Release

Overview

This alpha introduces the Namespace concept to IPAM and makes many robust improvements to relationships between models:

Namespace introduced to provide a uniqueness boundary for IPAddresses and Prefixes
Prefixes have concrete relationships to their parents instead of derived
IPAddresses have concrete relationships to their parent prefixes
VRF is no longer used as a uniqueness constraint for IPAddresses and Prefixes

⚠️ NOTE: Because we are validating these new data models the data migrations have not been implemented. You will have to re-input your data largely via the UI to prove if these models will work for you. We will implement the migrations in an upcoming beta if the relationships between Namespace and other IPAM objects prove to be the right design. As such, do not expect to migrate future releases on these installs. The data migration steps won't be re-performed.

For more detailed information, please view: https://github.com/nautobot/nautobot/issues/1032, https://github.com/nautobot/nautobot/issues/3337#issuecomment-1450855876

❗ This has been recreated to fix a bug with the prerelease workflow.

nautobot - v2.0.0-alpha.2 - 2023-03-29

Published by jathanism over 1 year ago

Nautobot v2.0

This document describes all new features and changes in Nautobot 2.0.

If you are a user migrating from Nautobot v1.X, please refer to the "Upgrading from Nautobot v1.X" documentation.

Release Overview

Added

Generic Role Model (#1063)

DeviceRole, RackRole, IPAM Role, and IPAddressRoleChoices have all been merged into a single generic Role model. A role can now be created and associated to one or more of the content-types that previously implemented role as a field. These model content-types include dcim.device, dcim.rack, virtualization.virtualmachine, ipam.ipaddress, ipam.prefix, and ipam.vlan.

Added Site Fields to Location (#2954)

Added Site Model Fields to Location. Location Model now has asn, comments, contact_email, contact_name, contact_phone, facility, latitude, longitude, physical_address, shipping_address and time_zone fields.

Natural Key Support Across Nautobot Models (#2900)

Nautobot's BaseModel base class and related classes now implement automatic support for Django natural keys for lookup and referencing, as well as supporting a natural_key_slug concept similar to that introduced by django-natural-keys. (Nautobot does not depend on django-natural-keys but its implementation is heavily inspired by that project.) For example:

>>> DeviceType.objects.first().natural_key()
['MegaCorp', 'Model 9000']

>>> DeviceType.objects.get_by_natural_key("MegaCorp", "Model 9000")
<DeviceType: Model 9000>

>>> DeviceType.objects.first().natural_key_slug
'MegaCorp&Model+9000'

>>> DeviceType.objects.get(natural_key_slug="MegaCorp&Model+9000")
<DeviceType: Model 9000>

Developers can refer to the documentation on natural keys for details on how to support and use this feature.

Changed

Aggregate model Migrated to Prefix (#3302)

The ipam.Aggregate model has been removed and all existing aggregates will be migrated to ipam.Prefix with type set to "Container". The Aggregate.date_added field will be migrated to Prefix.date_allocated and changed from a Date field to a DateTime field with the time set to 00:00. Aggregate.tenant, Aggregate.rir and Aggregate.description will be migrated over to the same fields on Prefix.

See the upgrade guide for more details on the data migration.

Collapse Region and Site Models into Location (#2517)

Initial Data Migration

The Site and Region models have been removed in v2.0 and have been replaced with Location of specific LocationType. As a result, the existing Site and Region data will be migrated to corresponding LocationType and Location objects. Here is what to expect:

If you do not have any Site and Region instances in your existing database, running this data migration will do nothing.
If you only have Region instances in your existing database, a LocationType named Region will be created and for each legacy Region instance, a corresponding Location instance with the same attributes (id, name, description, etc.) and hierarchy will be created.
If you only have Site instances in your existing database:
- A LocationType named Site will be created and every preexisting root level LocationType in your database will be updated to have the new Site LocationType as their parent.
- For each legacy Site instance, a corresponding Location instance with the same attributes (id, name, description, tenant, facility, asn, latitude, longitude, etc.) will be created, and any preexisting Locations in your database will be updated to have the appropriate "site" Locations as their parents.
- Model instances that had a site field (CircuitTermination, Device, PowerPanel, RackGroup, Rack, Prefix, VLANGroup, VLAN, Cluster) assigned and did not have a location attribute assigned will be updated to have their location point to the new Location corresponding to that Site. All other attributes on these models will remain unchanged.
- Model instances that were previously associated to the ContentType for Site (ComputedField, CustomField, CustomLink, ExportTemplate, ImageAttachment, JobHook, Note, Relationship, Status, Tag and Webhook) will have their ContentType replaced with Location. All other attributes on these models will remain unchanged.
For Example:
- We will start with a Site instance with name AMS01 as the base Site for two top-level Location objects with names root-01 and root-02 respectively.
- During the data migration, a LocationType named Site will be created, and a Location of Site LocationType named AMS01 with all the information (asn, latitude, etc.) from the base Site will be created.
- The Location objects named root-01 and root-02 will have this AMS01 Location set as their parent.
If you have both Site and Region instances in your existing database:
- A LocationType named Region will be created.
- For each legacy Region instance, a corresponding Location instance with the same attributes (id, name, description, etc.) will be created.
- A LocationType named Site will be created with the new LocationType named Region set as its parent.
- Every pre-existing root-level LocationType in your database will be updated to have the new LocationType named Site as its parent.
- For each legacy Site instance, a corresponding "site" Location instance with the same attributes (id, name, description, tenant, facility, asn, latitude, longitude, etc.) will be created with its parent set to the corresponding "region" Location if any.
  - If you have Site instances in your database without a Region assigned to them, one additional Location named Global Region of LocationType Region will be created and each Location of LocationType Site created from the legacy region-less Site instances will have the Global Region Location as their parent.
- Model instances that had a site attribute (CircuitTermination, Device, Location, PowerPanel, Rack, RackGroup, Prefix, VLANGroup, VLAN, Cluster) assigned and did not have a location attribute assigned will be updated to have their location point to the new Location of LocationType Site. All other attributes on these models will remain unchanged.
- Model instances that were previously associated to the ContentType for Site or Region (ComputedField, CustomField, CustomLink, ExportTemplate, ImageAttachment, JobHook, Note, Relationship, Status, Tag and Webhook) will have their ContentType replaced with Location. All other attributes on these models will remain unchanged.
For Example:
- There are two Site instances and one Region instance in your existing database. The Region with name America has one child Site instance named AMS01. And the other Site instance named AUS01 is not associated with any Region (region attribute is set to None).
- The Site AMS01 is the base Site for two top-level Location objects with names root-01 and root-02 respectively.
- During the data migration, a LocationType named Region and a Location of this LocationType named America with all the same information will be created.
- The LocationType named Site with its parent set as the new LocationType Region and a Location of LocationType named AMS01 with all the same information (asn, latitude, etc.) will be created. The Location AMS01 will have Location America as its parent and each - Location root-01 and root-02 will have Location AMS01 as its parent.
- Finally, the Site instance AUS01, since it does not have a Region instance associated with it, its corresponding Location AUS01 will have a new Location named Global Region of LocationType Region as its parent.
- In addition, legacy Site instance with name AMS01 also has three Device instances associated with it named ams01-edge-01, ams01-edge-02, and ams01-edge-03.
- However, ams01-edge-01 only has its site attribute set as Site AMS01 whereas ams01-edge-02 and ams01-edge-03 have both its site and location attributes set Site AMS01 and Location root-01 respectively.
- During the data migration, ams01-edge-01's location attribute will point to the new Location of LocationType Site with name AMS01 while devices ams01-edge-02 and ams01-edge-03 will remain unchanged.

Remove Site and Region Related Fields from Models

Region and Site relationships are being removed from these models: CircuitTermination, Device, Location, Rack, RackGroup, PowerFeed, PowerPanel, ConfigContext, Prefix, VLAN, VLANGroup, Cluster.

The ContentType for Region and Site are being replaced with Location on these models: ComputedField, CustomField, CustomLink, ExportTemplate, ImageAttachment, JobHook, Note, Relationship, Status, Tag and Webhook.

The region and site fields are being removed in the filter data of DynamicGroup objects. The previously associated values are being added to the existing location field and its associated list of filter values or to a new location key with an empty list if one does not exist.

Check out the API and UI endpoints changes incurred by the changes stated above in the "Upgrading from Nautobot v1.X" guide.

Check out the Region and Site Related Data Model Migration Guide to learn how to migrate your Nautobot Apps and data models from Site and Region to Location.

Collapsed `nautobot.utilities` into `nautobot.core` (#2721)

nautobot.utilities no longer exists as a separate Python module or Django app. Its functionality has been collapsed into the nautobot.core app. See details at Python Code Location Changes.

Renamed Database Foreign Keys and Related Names (#2520)

Some Foreign Key fields have been renamed to follow a more self-consistent pattern across the Nautobot app. This change is aimed to offer more clarity and predictability when it comes to related object database operations:

For example in v1.x to create a circuit object with type "circuit-type-1", you would do:

Circuit.objects.create(
    cid="Circuit 1",
    provider="provider-1",
    type="circuit-type-1",
    status="active",
)

and to filter Circuit objects of type "circuit-type-2", you would do:

Circuit.objects.filter(type="circuit-type-2")

Now in v2.x, we have renamed the Foreign Key field type on Circuit Model to circuit_type, because this naming convention made it clearer that this Foregin Key field is pointing to the model CircuitType. The same operations would look like:

Circuit.objects.create(
    cid="Circuit 1",
    provider="provider-1",
    circuit_type="circuit-type-1",
    status="active",
)

Circuit.objects.filter(circuit_type="circuit-type-2")

In addition to the changes made to Foreign Key fields' own names, some of their related_names are also renamed:

For example in v1.x, to query Circuit objects with CircuitTermination instances located in sites ["ams01", "ams02", "atl03"], you would do:

Circuit.objects.filter(terminations__site__in=["ams01", "ams02", "atl03"])

Now in v2.x, we have renamed the Foreign Key field circuit's related_name attribute terminations on CircuitTermination Model to circuit_terminations, the same operations would look like:

Circuit.objects.filter(circuit_terminations__site__in=["ams01", "ams02", "atl03"])

Renamed Filter Fields (#2804)

Some filter fields have been renamed to reflect their functionalities better.

For example in v1.X, to filter FrontPorts that has a cable attached in the UI or make changes to them via Rest API, you would use the cabled filter:

/dcim/front-ports/?cabled=True

Now in v2.x, you would instead use the has_cable filter which has a more user-friendly name:

/dcim/front-ports/?has_cable=True

Check out the specific changes documented in the table at UI and REST API Filter Changes

Enhanced Filter Fields (#2804)

Many filter fields have been enhanced to enable filtering by both slugs and UUID primary keys.

For example in v1.X, to filter Regions with a specific parent value in the UI or make changes to them via Rest API, you are only able to input slugs as the filter values:

/dcim/regions/?parent=<slug>

Now in v2.x, you are able to filter those Regions by slugs or UUID primary keys:

/dcim/regions/?parent=<slug> or /dcim/regions/?parent=<uuid>

Check out the specific changes documented in the table at UI and REST API Filter Changes

Corrected Filter Fields (#2804)

There were also instances where a foreign-key related field (e.g. console_ports) was incorrectly mapped to a boolean membership filter (e.g. has_console_ports), making it impossible to filter based on specific values of the foreign key:

For example in v1.x:

/dcim/devices/?console_ports=True and /dcim/devices/?has_console_ports=True are functionally the same and this behavior is incorrect.

This has been addressed in v2.x as follows:

console_ports and similar filters are taking foreign key UUIDs as input values and can be used in this format: /dcim/devices/?console_ports=<uuid> whereas has_console_ports and similar filters remain the same.

Generic Role Model (#1063)

The DeviceRole, RackRole, ipam.Role, and IPAddressRoleChoices have all been removed and replaced with a extras.Role model, This means that all references to any of the replaced models and choices now points to this generic role model.

In addition, the role field of the IPAddress model has also been changed from a choice field to a foreign key related field to the extras.Role model.

Prefix `is_pool` field and "Container" status replaced by new field `Prefix.type` (#1362)

A new type field was added to Prefix to replace the is_pool boolean field and the "Container" status. The type field can be set to "Network", "Pool" or "Container", with "Network" being the default.

Existing prefixes with a status of "Container" will be migrated to the "Container" type. Existing prefixes with is_pool set will be migrated to the "Pool" type. Prefixes with both is_pool set and a status of "Container" will be migrated to the "Pool" type.

The "Container" status will be removed and all prefixes will be migrated to the "Active" status if it exists. If the "Active" status was deleted, prefixes will be migrated to the first available prefix status in the database that is not "Container".

Removed

Removed Redundant Filter Fields (#2804)

As a part of breaking changes made in v2.X, shadowed filter/filterset fields are being removed throughout Nautobot.

In Nautobot 1.x, for some of the foreign-key related fields:
- The field was shadowed for the purpose of replacing the PK filter with a lookup-based on a more human-readable value (typically slug, if available).
- A PK-based filter was available as well, generally with a name suffixed by _id

Now these two filter fields will be replaced by a single filter field that can support both slugs and UUID primary keys as inputs; As a result, PK-based filters suffixed by _id will no longer be supported in v2.0.

For example in v1.X, to filter Devices with a specific site value in the UI or make changes to them via Rest API with a UUID primary key, you will use:

/dcim/devices/?site_id=<uuid>

Now in v2.x, that format is no longer supported. Instead, you would use:

/dcim/devices/?site=<uuid>
