Setup of netbox with plugins

1. Create a folder called plugins in: ~/netbox-docker/
2. Copy the contents here to: ~/netbox-docker/plugins/
3. Create Dockerfile-Plugins in: ~/netbox-docker/

DOCKERFILE-PLUGINS:

FROM netboxcommunity/netbox:latest

# repeat the last line for every plugin you want to load editable and customize the path
COPY ./plugins /plugins

RUN /opt/netbox/venv/bin/pip install --editable /plugins/plug-in-name
RUN /opt/netbox/venv/bin/python /opt/netbox/netbox/manage.py collectstatic --no-input

Edit the docker-compose.test.override.yml file in: ~/netbox-docker/

services:
    netbox:
        ports:
            - '127.0.0.1:8000:8080'
        build:
            context: .
            dockerfile: Dockerfile-Plugins
        image: netbox:latest-plugins
        volumes:
            - ./plugins:/plugins
    netbox-worker:
        image: netbox:latest-plugins
        build:
            context: .
            dockerfile: Dockerfile-Plugins
    netbox-housekeeping:
        image: netbox:latest-plugins
        build:
            context: .
            dockerfile: Dockerfile-Plugins

Edit configuration.py and update PLUGINS

PLUGINS = [
  "geo_map",
]

To run both docker-compose files run the following commands:

$ docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.test.override.yml up --build # (-d if you want to send it to the background)
