Netbox unable to find/recognize EXOS driver

[jkratzer]

Hello,

I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on getting the EXOS driver to work inside of Netbox? I installed the napalm-exos package via pip, and tried to add different names for the driver when 'exos' (no ticks in netbox) did not work. I tried getting information from the driver using the following in python:

from napalm import get_network_driver
get_network_driver('exos')

I attached a snip of what the error is. It could be a mis-configuration on my end, but I'm sure that somebody else has gotten this NAPALM driver to work in Netbox before.

Hi @jkratzer - Cloning down this driver and installing works fine for me.

➜  napalm-exos git:(master) python
Python 3.7.4 (default, Jul  9 2019, 18:13:23)
[Clang 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from napalm import get_network_driver
>>> get_network_driver('exos')

Hi there,

Just wondering if you found a fix for this?
I'm trying to get the EXOS driver working with Netbox and am getting exactly the same issue.
The napalm-exos package seems to install ok and without error.

I have also tried upgrading python to 3.7.x as used successfully by "tardoe" above but then have problems when installing the driver.

Thanks,

Craig.

I solved my problem by following @tardoe method above... cloning down the driver directly from git and installing from a local source with pip has fixed my issue.

Cheers.
