[Feature]: Retrieve rendered config for device

[misch42]

NetBox version

v3.5.1

Feature type

Change to existing Plugin

Proposed functionality

Netbox from v3.5 on offers the feature to device configuration templates for devices.

See: https://docs.netbox.dev/en/stable/features/configuration-rendering/

It would be a cool feature to retrieve the rendered config for a device from the inventory plugin. Then ansible would be able to push the config out to the device.

Use case

My idea would be a CI/CD chain that stores config templates in git, render these templates in netbox and pushes configs to the devices via ansible.

External dependencies

none.
