Feature Request - Allow Greater Session Customization Based on Object Attributes

Hello there!

The idea of this feature request is somewhat two-fold:

Allow for the customization of session options via the config file
Allow for the entirety of an object's attribute set to be available for use in those options and others

Some sample use cases:

Sessions created from virtual machine objects having their connection protocol set to RDP (as opposed to the current default of SSH2)
Sessions created from devices with a particular custom field value having their connection protocol set to telnet or another protocol of the user's choice (we have a number of legacy devices that don't support SSH)
Sessions created from objects in a given tenant having one set of credentials, while sessions created from objects in another tenant have a different set

I imagine the end-user implementation in the config file would look something like this:

netbox_url: https://nb-prod.domain.com
netbox_token: 12345678
root_path: NetBox
session_options:
    connection_protocol: {{ 'RDP' if obj.type is virtual_machine else obj.cf.my_custom_field }} # <<< example logic
    credential: {{ }} # <<< more logic here
...

Let me know what you think.

Runtime Error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference

First off, I think the idea for this is awesome, and was super excited to try it. Unfortunately, I got the error above/below after installing Go, getting the app running, and then hitting Sync Inventory Now. While I'm familiar with YAML and NetBox, I've got no experience with Go, so I definitely could be doing something wrong. The error:

PS C:\Users\username\Downloads\netbox-securecrt-inventory-main\netbox-securecrt-inventory-main> go run .
panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference

My YAML config:

netbox_url: https://nb-prod.domain.com
netbox_token: 12345678
root_path: Test

# Name overwrites can be used to change the name of the session
# Typical usecases is to remove domain names, extra values like .1 and so on
# name_overwrites:
  # - regex: "\\.1$"
    # value: ""

# Session Path defines where a session is saved
# There's a default template, but it's also possible to create overwrites based on the following keys:
# site_group, type, tenant_name, region_name, site_name, device_name
session_path:
    template: '{tenant_name}/{site_name}/{device_role}'
    # overwrites:
      # - key: site_group
        # value: Test Sites
        # template: _TEST/{region_name}/{site_name}
      # - key: type
        # value: virtual_machine
        # template: _Servers/{region_name}
# Enable / Disable periodic sync (note: SecureCRT needs to be restart for changes to take affect)
periodic_sync_enable: false
periodic_sync_interval: 120

# Default credentails to use, they should be defined in SecureCRT beforehand under "Preferences -> General -> Credentials"
default_credential: admin

Edit: Should've added this before, but I'm running NetBox 3.7.8, Go 1.22.4 on Windows 11, and SecureCRT 9.3.2.

Error mapping values

Error: yaml: line 15: mapping values are not allowed in this context.

I'm not familiar enough to know how to troubleshoot this sadly
