Request: Sync additional items

[averyhabbott]

It would be really helpful to be able to sync module bays, console ports, etc. There was a request on the old plugin (netbox_interface_sync) for this feature and I am echoing the sentiment here.

This would be really helpful.

Its working fine with the interfaces, but it be perfect if other ports could synchronized :-)

Please see drygdryg/netbox-plugin-interface-sync#7 for mods that were done by @rizlas to the original project that allowed us to sync other components. This would satisfy a big chunk of original request as it syncs lots of items:

Modules bays and modules would be nice if it could be cloned too, but I'm definitely not being picky here ;)

Added everything in #21

Hi, let me know if you need something from my side.

[NetTech2001]

Currently testing and reviewing code to implement this functionality. Thank you rizlas and bastianleicht for you massive contribution to this pending update.

Any news on this? front- and rear-ports would be nice.

[NetTech2001]

I attempted to publish this release but the installation failed o load the plugin...probably something I did wrong. I am working on it now that I have a dev environment again.

Thanks to a massive contribution from bastianleicht the Interface Synchronization plugin has become the Component Synchronization plugin.

This plugin allows you to compare and synchronize component names and types between devices and device types in NetBox 4.3+. It can be useful for finding and correcting inconsistencies between components when changing the device type.

Amazing to see this get merged after a long time and thanks to @bastianleicht that worked this out. It would have been nice to see a reference to myself and the original repo where these changes came from in the first place, though.
