Proposed Changes
Not sure if this should be a bug report or a documentation change, as I'm not sure what the intention was. PR #13387 moved get_plugin_config from
extras.plugins
toextras.plugins.util
. This seems like an undocumented backwards incompatible change to the plugin API. It broke netbox-napalm for instance:netbox-community/netbox-napalm-plugin#16
The change should either be rolled back or the documentation should be changed here:
netbox/docs/plugins/development/index.md
Lines 119 to 126 in 4004966
If the change is to stay, we should edit the release notes on github for 3.5.8 indicating that there's a BC break.
