Installing

For adding to a NetBox Docker setup see the general instructions for using netbox-docker with plugins.

You can install with pip:

pip install netbox-acls

or by adding to your local_requirements.txt or plugin_requirements.txt (netbox-docker):

netbox-acls

Configuration

Enable the plugin in /opt/netbox/netbox/netbox/configuration.py, or if you use netbox-docker, your /configuration/plugins.py file :

PLUGINS = [
    "netbox_acls"
]

PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
    "netbox_acls": {
        "top_level_menu": True # If set to True the plugin will add a top level menu item for the plugin. If set to False the plugin will add a menu item under the Plugins menu item.  Default is set to True.
    },
}

To add the required netbox-acls tables to your NetBox database, run the migrate manager subcommand in the NetBox virtual environment:

cd /opt/netbox
sudo ./venv/bin/python3 netbox/manage.py migrate

Developing

VSCode + Docker + Dev Containers

To develop this plugin further one can use the included .devcontainer configuration. This configuration creates a docker container which includes a fully working netbox installation. Currently it should work when using WSL 2. For this to work make sure you have Docker Desktop installed and the WSL 2 integrations activated.

1. In the WSL terminal, enter code to run Visual studio code.
2. Install the devcontainer extension "ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers"
3. Press Ctrl+Shift+P and use the "Dev Container: Clone Repository in Container Volume" function to clone this repository. This will take a while depending on your computer
4. If you'd like the netbox instance to be prepopulated with example data from netbox-initializers run make initializers
5. Start the netbox instance using make all

Your netbox instance will be served under 0.0.0.0:8000, so it should now be available under localhost:8000.
