v0.3.0

v0.3.0

Breaking Changes

• #270 - To pass in integers via Ansible Jinja filters for a key in data that requires querying an endpoint is now done by making it a dictionary with an id key.
  The previous behavior was to just pass in an integer and it was converted when normalizing the data, but some people may have names that are all integers and those were being converted erroneously so we made the decision to change
  the method to convert to an integer for the NetBox API.

  tasks:
    - name: Create device within NetBox with only required information
      netbox_device:
        netbox_url: http://netbox-demo.org:32768
        netbox_token: 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567
        data:
          name: Test66
          device_type:
            id: "{{ some_jinja_variable }}"
          device_role: Core Switch
          site: Test Site
          status: Staged
        state: present
