SDK-first NetBox toolkit with Python SDK, CLI, and Textual TUIs

Project description

netbox-sdk

netbox-sdk is an SDK-first NetBox toolkit with terminal interfaces built on one shared runtime:

  • netbox_cli — Typer command-line interface
  • netbox_tui — Textual terminal applications
  • netbox_sdk — standalone REST API SDK shared by both

Published package names remain:

  • netbox-sdk
  • netbox-console

Quick Start with the Demo Instance

Install:

pip install 'netbox-sdk[all]'

Authenticate against the public demo instance:

nbx demo init

Try a few commands:

nbx demo dcim devices list
nbx demo ipam prefixes list
nbx demo tui
nbx demo dev tui

Install

Current release documented on the docs site matches docs/snippets/package-version.txt (aligned with pyproject.toml). For the latest PyPI build you can omit the pin; add ==<version> to match that documentation snapshot.

Minimal SDK only:

pip install netbox-sdk

CLI:

pip install 'netbox-sdk[cli]'

TUI:

pip install 'netbox-sdk[tui]'

Everything:

pip install 'netbox-sdk[all]'

Pinned (same version as the docs site / package-version.txt):

pip install 'netbox-sdk[all]==0.0.7.post1'

With uv as a user tool:

uv tool install --force 'netbox-sdk[cli]'

Developer checkout:

git clone https://github.com/emersonfelipesp/netbox-sdk.git
cd netbox-sdk
uv sync --dev --extra cli --extra tui --extra demo
uv run nbx --help

Common Commands

nbx init
nbx dcim devices list
nbx dcim devices get --id 1
nbx tui
nbx dev tui
nbx cli tui
nbx logs

Architecture

  • netbox_sdk owns config, auth, caching, schema parsing, request resolution, shared formatting, and demo helpers.
  • netbox_cli owns the nbx command tree and lazy-loads netbox_tui where needed.
  • netbox_tui owns all Textual apps, themes, widgets, and TCSS.

Contributor Workflow

uv sync --dev --extra cli --extra tui --extra demo
uv run pre-commit install --hook-type pre-commit --hook-type pre-push
uv run pre-commit run --all-files
uv run ty check netbox_sdk netbox_cli netbox_tui tests
uv run pytest

Release Process

Use a single GitHub release title pattern for every release:

  • netbox-sdk vX.Y.Z

Example:

gh release create v0.0.7.post1 \
  --title "netbox-sdk v0.0.7.post1"

When cutting a release, bump pyproject.toml and netbox_sdk.__version__, then keep docs in sync: docs/snippets/package-version.txt, mkdocs.ymlextra.package_version, and the version strings in docs/snippets/documented-release-*.md and docs/snippets/pip-pinned-*.txt / uv-pinned-cli.txt. uv lock must reflect the new version. tests/test_docs_alignment.py asserts snippet and MkDocs metadata match pyproject.toml.
