.get() only available for id and not for other parameters?

[jayGG83]

Hello,
As mentioned, by default any get function only accepts the object id as parameter.
Is there any onther way, like getting the info by name?

Thanks

.get(name="xxx")?

Already tried that and it doesn't work. I get:

ERROR:root:No device found with name TEST_1: RetrievableAPIResource.get() got an unexpected keyword argument 'name'

Checking the code, get has 2 classes:

class RetrievableAPIResource:
    def get(self, id: str | int) -> Result:
        return self.client.get(f"{self.path}{id}/")


class RetrievableRootAPIResource:
    def get(self, **kwargs) -> Result:
        return self.client.get(self.path, params=kwargs)

The seond one is the one that enables the search throuygh other parameters, but only one used is only the first one:

class APIResource(
    baseapi,
    CreateableAPIResource,
    DeletableAPIResource,
    ListableAPIResource,
    RetrievableAPIResource,
    UpdateableAPIResource,
):
    pass

Sorry, I thought this was in pynetbox repo and not in netbox-python.

I'm trying to get module information, but Pynetbox doesn't have it covered. netbox-python has it, but the .get is only enabled for ids :(
