scrapli_cfg makes merging or replacing device configurations over Telnet or SSH easy, all while giving you the scrapli behaviour you know and love.

Key Features:

• Easy: It's easy to get going with scrapli and scrapli-cfg -- check out the documentation and example links above, and you'll be managing device configurations in no time.
• Fast: Do you like to go fast? Of course you do! All of scrapli is built with speed in mind, but if you really feel the need for speed, check out the ssh2 transport plugin to take it to the next level! All the "normal" scrapli transport plugin goodness exists here in scrapli-cfg too!
• Great Developer Experience: scrapli_cfg has great editor support thanks to being fully typed; that plus thorough docs make developing with scrapli a breeze.
