This release focuses on ansible-core 2.11 compatibility, general CI fixes for NetBox 2.10-2.11, and doc updates. This release works with NetBox 3.0, but needs further investigation with regards to idopmentcy (nothing really major) & some CI. The next release will idenify and resolve any issues with NetBox 3.0.

This release should fix obvious broken changes between collection and NetBox 2.11, but there is most likely more. Please report as they're encountered. packages is now a required Python package and is already included in Ansible 2.10, but anyone using Ansible 2.9 or below must manually pip install the library.

  • Inventory - Add group_by option services (netbox-community#286)
  • Fix query_dict for device_bay/interface_template to use devicetype_id (netbox-community#282)
  • This expands the fix to all _template modules to use devicetype_id for the query_dict when attempting to resolve the search (netbox-community#300)
  • To pass in integers via Ansible Jinja filters for a key in data that requires querying an endpoint is now done by making it a dictionary with an id key. The previous behavior was to just pass in an integer and it was converted when normalizing the data, but some people may have names that are all integers and those were being converted erroneously so we made the decision to change the method to convert to an integer for the NetBox API.

    tasks:
      - name: Create device within NetBox with only required information
        netbox_device:
          netbox_url: http://netbox-demo.org:32768
          netbox_token: 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567
          data:

          state: present
    
  • pynetbox changed to using requests.Session() to manage the HTTP session which broke passing in ssl_verify when building the NetBox API client. This PR makes pynetbox 5.0.4+ the new required version of pynetbox for the Ansible modules and lookup plugin. (netbox-community#269)

  • Add device_query_filters and vm_query_filters to allow users to specify query filters for the specific type (netbox-community#140)

  • Added raw_output option to netbox lookup plugin to return the exact output from the API with no doctoring (netbox-community#136)
  • Added services option to the netbox inventory to allow users to toggle whether services are included or not (netbox-community#143)
  • Added update_vc_child option to netbox_device_interface to allow child interfaces to be updated if device specified is the master device within the virtual chassis (netbox-community#105)
  • Remove token from being required for nb_inventory as some NetBox setups don't require authorization for GET functions (netbox-community#177)
  • Remove token from being required for nb_lookup as some NetBox setups don't require authorization for GET functions (netbox-community#183)

  • Properly find LAG if defined just as a string rather than dictionary with the relevant data (netbox-community#166)

  • Updated rack width choices for latest NetBox version (netbox-community#167)
  • Updated inventory plugin name from netbox.netbox.netbox to netbox.netbox.nb_inventory (netbox-community#129)
  • This version has a few breaking changes due to new namespace and collection name. I felt it necessary to change the name of the lookup plugin and inventory plugin just not to have a non descriptive namespace call to use them. Below is an example: netbox.netbox.netbox would be used for both inventory plugin and lookup plugin, but in different contexts so no collision will arise, but confusion will. I renamed the lookup plugin to nb_lookup so it will be used with the FQCN netbox.netbox.nb_lookup. The inventory plugin will now be called within an inventory file by netbox.netbox.nb_inventory
  • Update netbox_tenant and netbox_tenant_group to use slugs for searching (available since NetBox 2.6). Added slug options to netbox_site, netbox_tenant, netbox_tenant_group (netbox-community#120)

  • Added option for interfaces and IP addresses of interfaces to be fetched via inventory plugin (netbox-community#60)
  • Change lookups to property for subclassing of inventory plugin (netbox-community#62)
  • Assigning to parent log now finds LAG interface type dynamically rather than set statically in code (netbox-community#106)
  • Create device with empty string to assign the device a UUID (netbox-community#107)
  • If query_filters supplied are not allowed for either device or VM lookups, or no valid query filters, it will not attempt to fetch from devices or VMs. This should prevent devices or VMs from being fetched that do not meet the query_filters specified. (netbox-community#63)
  • Properly create interface on correct device when in a VC (netbox-community#105)
  • Updated _to_slug to follow same constructs NetBox uses (netbox-community#95)
  • Fixed vlan searching with vlan_group for netbox_prefix (netbox-community#85)
  • Removed static choices from netbox_utils and now pulls the choices for each endpoint from the NetBox API at call time (netbox-community#67)
  • Add argument specs for every module to validate data passed in. Fixes some idempotency issues. POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE (netbox-community#68)
  • Allow name updates to manufacturers (netbox-community#76)
  • Builds slug for netbox_device_type from model which is now required and slug is optional. Model will be slugified if slug is not provided BREAKING CHANGE (netbox-community#77)
  • Fail module with proper exception when connection to NetBox API cannot be established (netbox-community#80)
  • netbox_device_interface Lag no longer has to be a dictionary and the value of the key can be the name of the LAG (netbox-community#81)
  • netbox_ip_address If no address has no CIDR notation, it will convert it into a /32 and pass to NetBox. Fixes idempotency cidr notation is not provided (netbox-community#78)
  • netbox.netbox.netbox_service - Creates or removes service from NetBox
  • Allow endpoint choices to be an integer of the choice rather than attempting to dynamically determine the choice ID (netbox-community#47)
