Nautobot Plugin Nornir



An App for Nautobot.

Overview

A plugin for Nautobot, that intends to be a small shim layer between nornir-nautobot and other plugins. The primary abilities that the plugin provides is a native Nornir ORM based inventory and a credential manager.

Architecture Overview

As of the writing of this readme, the only plugin leveraging this plugin is the golden-config. However, future plugins are planned, such as the "network importer".

That being said, there is currently little reason to install this plugin by itself, without an enabler, which can be seen represented as the white rectangles inside the yellow rectangle in the diagram above. An enabler could be a Plugin, Job, or another piece of code like a Chatops command.

Screenshots

As previously mentioned, the plugin is mostly a shim layer, here is an example of how Nautobot Golden Config uses a Nornir Job.

Backup Job
