Example of a CI Gitlab pipeline with Nornir, NetBox, Pytest for a Legacy Network

StupidLegacyCI

Overview:

• Gitlab pipeline uses local runner - "docker0"
• The job update_cache works by schedule and updates the necessary Python packages
• The job compare_commits compares YAMLs of the previous and current commit with git diff. The result - YAMLs list where network parameters have changed
• The job tests run Pytest with stdout parameter and short traceback. As instance, in repository we have single test - test_snmp.py. It's template for any other tests
• The job run run YAML Handler, stupid_ci.py, for creating config based on these YAMLs
