Custom KV per device ?

[kedare]

Hello.

I am looking for a way to store custom key/value per device (typically to store the "role" of the device or the configuration context from netbox associated to the device ( https://netbox.readthedocs.io/en/stable/models/extras/configcontext/ ) so I know which ntp/tacacs server this device should point to.

I was thinking to use diagnostics to do that (so the diagnostics would basically be a python/js script that will pull the values from netbox), is there a better alternative at doing this ? (a way to push those values from API calls?)

Thanks

Indeed diagnostics are the only option at the moment.

However it looks like the python scripts cannot do external requests thru http.client for example, I am getting this error ImportError: Cannot run any C extensions because native access is not allowed..

Can it be done with JS ? What would be the way to do it ?

Maybe it would be interesting to expose some http helpers to run http(s) requests ?

Thanks
