v0.3.0b1

v0.3.0b1 (beta)

This is a pre-release beta of v0.3.0. Please test and report any issues before the stable release.

New features

• YAML layout system — define device layouts in structured YAML instead of raw CSS grid-template-areas (#57)

  • CSS Grid renderer powered by YAML definitions
  • 10 Cisco device YAML examples (C2960X, C9300, FPR1120, and more)
  • Full YAML layout schema reference in docs/yaml-layout-schema.md
  • css_to_yaml management command to migrate existing CSS layouts

• SVG renderer — new render_mode field on DeviceView to render ports as SVG instead of CSS Grid (#58)

  • Virtual chassis support
  • Patch panel front/rear port rendering on the device tab
  • 58 new tests

• Improved device view list table — linked device type (with manufacturer), device count, layout and render mode badges

• Edit form port name helper — "Port & Interface Stylenames" table shows the exact CSS stylename for every component on the selected device type

Bug fixes

• Closes #44 — crash object has no attribute 'virtual_chassis' when show_on_device_tab is enabled
• Closes #34 — wrong ports listed for virtual chassis members
• Closes #38 — patch panel front/rear ports not rendering on the device tab
• Closes #39 — views not working correctly (console ports / unrecognised port names)
• Closes #30 — not using interface names as provided (edit form now shows name → stylename mapping)

Migration

After upgrading, run:

python manage.py migrate
python manage.py css_to_yaml  # optional — generates YAML equivalents for existing CSS layouts
