An Ansible Role that installs the latest version of Netbox (DCIM from DigitalOcean folks)
Netbox require a postgresql database, this role will not setup this DB
so you should use an other role to setup and conf posgtres (in my case
I use the geerlingguy postgres role)
Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):
netbox_app_dir: "/opt/netbox"
the default destination for netbox install
netbox_user: "netbox"
Default unix user running Netbox through gunicorn
netbox_git_version
Version of netbox we want to install (based on the git repo) default is master
netbox_admin: "admin"
Netbox admin user name (web admin)
netbox_admin_password
netbox_admin_email
the netbox_admin_password is not in the defaults var because you must define your own password! So don't forget to set a strong password.
netbox_gunicorn_bind_addr: "0.0.0.0"
netbox_gunicorn_bind_port: "8001"
The IP address and ports on which gunicorn should be listening.
netbox_gunicorn_workers: "3"
Maximum number of gunicorn workers we allow
netbox_httpd_user_group: "apache"
group of the frontend webserver you want to use (for the static files)
netbox_login_required: False
Setting this to True will permit only authenticated users to access any part of NetBox. By default, anonymous users are permitted to access most data in NetBox
netbox_smtp_server: "localhost"
Host name or IP address of the email server netbox will use
netbox_from_email: "{{ netbox_user }}@{{ ansible_fqdn }}"
Sender address for emails sent by NetBox
the following variables are not in the defaults/main.yml and must be set in your playbook
netbox_allowed_hosts: "'{{ ansible_fqdn }}'"
This is a list of the valid hostnames by which this server can be reached. You must specify at least one name or IP address.
netbox_db_name: "netbox"
netbox_db_user: "netbox"
netbox_db_password:""
This parameter holds the database configuration details. You must define the username and password used when you configured PostgreSQL.
netbox_secret_key: ""
Netbox secret key, generate a random secret key of at least 50 alphanumeric characters. This key must be unique to this installation and must not be shared outside the local system.
Define the next variable if you need to authenticate your user against an ldap directory
netbox_ldap_srv_uri: "ldap://ldap.example.net"
netbox_ldap_base_dn: "dc=example,dc=be"
netbox_ldap_bind_dn: "cn=netbox,dc=example,dc=be"
netbox_ldap_user_search: "ou=People,dc=example,dc=be"
A list of other roles hosted on Galaxy should go here, plus any details in regards to parameters that may need to be set for other roles, or variables that are used from other roles.
Example using geerlingguy apache and postgresql to configure netbox
