Change Type

[x] Addition
[x] Correction
[ ] Deprecation
[ ] Cleanup (formatting, typos, etc.)

Proposed Corrections

For example, if you only want to display a link for active devices, you could set the link text to

{% if device.status == 1 %}View NMS{% endif %}

example should state:

{% if obj.status == 1 %}View NMS{% endif %}

Proposed Additions

  • Custom URLs are a very useful feature, coupled with Jinja2 templating it is very extensible. Can you please provide a few more examples and/or pointer to the subclasses that can be called?

For instance, I wanted to conditionally render based on device type. So I tried:

{% if obj.type == 1 %}View NMS{% endif %}

instead of:

{% if obj.device_type.model == 'TESTNAME' %}View NMS{% endif %}

obj.device_type.name is not a valid path, it would have to be:

obj.device_type

or

obj.device_type.model
