The logging call passed the exception as a positional argument with no
%s placeholder in the format string:
LOGGER.error("Error parsing query: ", e)
Python's logging applies msg % args, which raised TypeError (not all
arguments converted during string formatting) inside logging.handleError.
The logging framework swallows that secondary error, so neither the
intended message nor the exception was ever recorded.
Use an f-string so the exception is actually rendered and logged.
Per PR review feedback:
- Rename settings: custom_field_force_notify -> notify_ns_custom_field_name,
force_notify_port -> notify_ns_port.
- Add notify_ns_all_zones (bool, default False) to enable the feature globally
for every zone; it coexists with the per-zone custom field — a NOTIFY is sent
if the global switch is on OR the zone's custom field is set.
- Rename the internal job/scheduler/log strings to the notify_ns naming for
consistency (SendZoneNSNotify, schedule_notify_ns).
- Update README and CHANGELOG.
v1.5.6 fixed the wrong RelatedObjectDoesNotExist import and the catz
member-identifier creation, but two get_or_create() calls still used the
returned value directly instead of unpacking the (obj, created) tuple:
- increment_soa_serial(): `soa_serial_obj.value` on a tuple
- _create_soa_rdataset(): `.get_or_create(...).value` on a tuple
Both raised `'tuple' object has no attribute 'value'` at runtime — the
first on every zone save, the second on every catalog-zone (catz) query.
Unpack the tuple in both places.
- Introduced `custom_field_force_notify` setting to trigger immediate NOTIFY to a zone's nameservers when its SOA serial number changes and the custom field is set to True.
- Updated README to document the new feature and its configuration.
- Refactored notify handler to include a new job for sending forced NOTIFY messages directly to zone nameservers.
- Enhanced zone signal handling to check for SOA serial changes and trigger forced NOTIFY accordingly.

Adding serial to notify messages to allow client to determine state.
modified: netbox_dns_bridge/signals/netbox_dns_zones.py
1. On zone deletion the catalog zone serial was not incremented, causing clients
not to delete the zone until another zone is created/modified. Fixed using
post_delete signal.
2. Even with the notify_clients feature disabled, the client IPs were still
being tracked. This disables the unnecessary behavior.
3. _track_seen_client function in DNSBaseRequestHandler did not have the 'self'
reference parameter, causing calls to fail. Fixed.

Correct path

Fixes missing migration.

Just in case
modified: netbox_dns_bridge/request_handler.py
modified: netbox_dns_bridge/utils.py
Various little bug fixes. Analysed by AI but fixed by hand to ensure integrity.
Fix paths after restructuring
renamed: netbox_dns_bridge/management/commands/export-dns-zone.py -> netbox_dns_bridge/management/commands/dns-export-zone.py
renamed: netbox_dns_bridge/management/commands/export-all-dns-zones.py -> netbox_dns_bridge/management/commands/dns-export-zones.py
Unify command naming scheme
new file: netbox_dns_bridge/migrations/0001_initial.py
Adds the missing migration. Since the plugin was renamed this is also an opportunity to merge all changes into a single migration.
renamed: netbox_dns_bridge/service/transfer/catalog_zone_manager.py -> netbox_dns_bridge/catalog_zone_manager.py
renamed: netbox_dns_bridge/service/transfer/dns_server.py -> netbox_dns_bridge/dns_server.py
new file: netbox_dns_bridge/management/commands/dns-settings.py
modified: netbox_dns_bridge/management/commands/dns-transfer-endpoint.py
renamed: netbox_dns_bridge/service/transfer/request_handler.py -> netbox_dns_bridge/request_handler.py
deleted: netbox_dns_bridge/service/transfer/__init__.py
Another restructure to simplify code re-use. New command dns-settings added to allow setting of catalog zone serial.
This will be needed to migrate from previous versions.
