Compliance checks without intended / backup configuration

Open viktorkertesz opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

Environment

  • Nautobot version: 1.6.10
  • nautobot-golden-config version: 1.6.2

We don't maintain backup nor full intended configuration for an isolated environment. Therefore running compliance checks are impossible without hacks.

Proposed Functionality

Can we set an option at compliance job not to check if a device have intended or backup configuration? In those cases, ignore git operation and also let the check run with custom compliance function.

Use Case

Our use case is that we don't rely on configuration directly but we use custom compliance function which works on device custom field data. Creating dummy data for intended and backup is ugly.

It may benefit others using similar compliance strategy.
