Back to it, today was mostly theoretical on job models. I really like how nautobot makes it quite easy to modify the behaviour of a job without having to dig to deep into the code itself. #100daysofNautobot 19/100

lucky me, this "easier" reads landed on a hectic week, but I'm still enjoying it. Today adding jobs from a github repo. This seems really important when sharing jobs with different teams in a centralized hub. #100daysofNautobot 18/100

Another quite easy read today. Job approvals, seems like a nice option to prevent critical devices to be manipulated without a peer review. #100daysofNautobot 17/100

Today was an easy read, job scheduling. Seems like a simple but powerful tool. Config backups seems like a great option for example! #100daysofNautobot 16/100

TIL how to interact with nautobot's API. Pretty convenient to get information stored in nautobot. I played a bit with json so I could give a bit of format to the data as well.

Today was somewhat easy, but interesting nonetheless! Hook jobs seems super interesting to update devices after changes on nautobot in real-time, or notifications on non-intended changes as well! #100daysofNautobot 14/100

Long day today. Luckily I unintentionally advance yesterday on the next task haha, so today was easy. Pretty cool to execute this commonly repetitive task in one click! #100daysofNautobot 13/100

So... today has been the most interesting. I wanted to do a bit more than just the intended challenge and it was hard. For sure need to read the jobs structure docs! I failed a lot but got it working at the end so overall a good experience 😀 #100daysofNautobot 12/100

TIL to create jobs that can manipulate configs on a device. The example was only a vlan, but the way this can be improved into full configs seems amazing! #100daysofNautobot Day11/100

After a long heavy day, I managed to do an extra #100daysofNautobot . TIL connecting to remote devices from a job execution in nautobot. This particular job I can see great use cases in prod for initial validations as an example! Day10/100.

TIL, well not much on Nautobot, but lots on docker😂 Had some troubles deploying containerlabs in a different host from nautobot and then trying to connect them, but after 2h, everything is setup! #100daysofNautobot Day9/100
May 16, 2025 at 8:32 PM
TIL how to leverage python libraries to enhance the functionality of jobs in nautobot. I want to tinket a bit with this particular example some more. #100daysofNautobot Day8/100
May 15, 2025 at 8:59 PM
TIL data validation techniques embedded in nautobot. It can be extremely useful to filter unnecessary data or ensure we have the required data before running a job.

#100daysofNautobot Day7/100
May 14, 2025 at 7:26 PM
TIL about jobs variables. Interesting way to provide the user the ability to input different values that then can be used by the backend of nautobot. #100daysofNautobot Day6/100
May 13, 2025 at 7:57 PM
TIL how to use DjangoORM. Pretty intuitive and easy to use, I can see some great use cases at a scale. I'm eager to find out more of the available functions. #100daysofNautobot Day5/100
May 12, 2025 at 6:46 PM
TIL how to add logging options and user input to new jobs. This could be a great feature when needing to do some tshooting for sure. Will try to squeeze more "Days" later today 😀 #100daysofNautobot Day4/100
May 11, 2025 at 6:13 AM
Today on #100daysofNautobot I learned how to create and install a new job in nautobot. Amazing feature and really easy to use. Another thing I learned by chance is that apt-get can be used in a docker container to install new packages 😀 Day3/100
May 8, 2025 at 8:45 PM
Today on #100daysofNautobot I went over nautobot jobs, mostly focused on what a job is and running a pre-installed job that exports records from nautobot as CSV. It came out empty as I ran it on my new nautobot instance, but seems like a really interesting bit to use in the future. Day 2/100

I will come up with a plan, post it here and follow up with as much updates as possible from here on, so if you're interested in following a random person trying to be the best one can posibly be, then this is the right place to be.
November 19, 2024 at 10:03 PM
I will post the plan here and share my journey here as well with all it's ups and downs. It will not only be career related but my life in general needs an extreme makeover. I will get to be the best version of myself.
November 19, 2024 at 10:03 PM
So after some thought, I decided to come here and post this as a reminder of this and also to have some accountability with myself. I need to and I will get out of my comfort zone. So I decided to create a plan to get my career back on track so I cannot be told something like this ever again. 3/?

I couldn't even sleep and felt destroyed by this comment, like all the investment I put into my carrer meant nothing.

Today after some thought, I went over the past few years and in hindsight, it might actually be true in a sense. I've been too comfortable for a while without pushing myself.
