netbox v3.5/plugin v3.5/docker or kubernetes doesn't work.

[ThomasADavis]

NetBox version

v3.5.0

Topology Views version

v3.5.0

Steps to Reproduce

Follow the docker plugin requirements.. the plugin fails to load files, gets a 404 error, they haven't been migrated.

Add the following to the docker container description:

RUN python3 manage.py migrate netbox_topology_views

and watch it blow up on the docker build, because the postgresql db isn't running/available to the docker build.

ie:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Error: while running runtime: exit status 1

Try to do the same thing in our kubernetes environment runtime, fails because we run the container as read-only.

Expected Behavior

The migration/collect static phase cannot complete correctly with no access to the postgresql db.

In the past, I've had to add this line to the container build:

RUN cp -rv /opt/netbox/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/netbox_topology_views/static/netbox_topology_views /opt/netbox/netbox/static

What does manage.py migrate netbox_tolopology_views do?

Observed Behavior

Failure.

Suggestions desired.
