Installation

Below the compatibility list of the Netbox Docker PLugin and Netbox. Please chose the right version of the plugin depending of the Netbox version you use:

Netbox Version	Netbox Docker Plugin Version
4.1.*	0.0.*

You can follow the official plugins installation instructions.

If needed, source your Netbox's virtual environment and install the plugin like a package. We assume you have already installed Netbox and its source code are in /opt/netbox:

cd /opt/netbox
python3 -m venv venv # if virtual env was not created before
source /opt/netbox/venv/bin/activate
pip install netbox-passhup-plugin

Enable the plugin in the /opt/netbox/netbox/netbox/configuration.py file:

PLUGINS = [
    'netbox_passhup_plugin',
]

Environment variables

For running the plugin must Netbox started with this environment set:

• VM_AGENT_BASE_URL (string): the base URL of the Passhup VM agent (eg: http://my.agent.com)
• VM_AGENT_BODY_TEMPLATE (string): the string base64 encoded body template to send to the agent on VM creation

Alternative

Another way to install Netbox is to use the Official netbox-docker project.

With this alternate way, you can customize your Netbox image and migrations will be automatically execute each time you restart the container.
