Originally created by @fabi125 on GitHub (Apr 23, 2021).

NetBox version

v2.10.6

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

We would like to add custom filters to our export templates. Ideally one should be able to add them via a plugin and then be able to load them in the export template.

Use case

We want regex_replace to be available in our export template.

I tried adding filters in a templatetags folder to a netbox plugin and loading it in the template (which works for regular templates used within a plugin), but that fails with There was an error rendering the selected export template (filter_test): Encountered unknown tag 'load'.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None

Is there a way that export templates behave like regular django templates? I feel like that would fix this issue.

Otherwise I'd have to spend some more time reading the code to make a more substantial suggestion on how this potentially could be achieved.
