Netmiko has been configured to automatically look in ~/ntc-template/templates/index
for the ntc-templates index file. Alternatively, you can explicitly tell Netmiko where to look for the TextFSM template directory by setting the NET_TEXTFSM
environment variable (note, there must be an index file in this directory):
export NET_TEXTFSM=/path/to/ntc-templates/templates/
More info on TextFSM and Netmiko.
If you find an issue with Netmiko, then you can open an issue on this projects issue page here: https://github.com/ktbyers/netmiko/issues
If you have questions or would like to discuss Netmiko, a Netmiko channel exists on this Slack team. To join, visit this url and request access to the Slack team. Once access is granted you can join the #netmiko channel.
