# netbox-docker

This repository houses the components needed to build NetBox as a Docker container. It is a work in progress; please submit a bug report for any issues you encounter.
This repository houses the components needed to build NetBox as a Docker container.
Images built using this code are released to [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/ninech/netbox) every night.

## Quickstart

To get NetBox up and running:

```
# git clone -b master https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox-docker.git
# cd netbox-docker
# docker-compose up -d
$ git clone -b master https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox-docker.git
$ cd netbox-docker
$ docker-compose up -d
```

The application will be available on http://localhost/ after a few minutes.
The application will be available after a few minutes.
Use `docker-compose port nginx 80` to find out where to connect to.

```
$ echo "http://$(docker-compose port nginx 80)/"
http://0.0.0.0:32768/
# Open netbox in your default browser on macOS:
$ open "http://$(docker-compose port nginx 80)/"
# Open netbox in your default browser on (most) linuxes:
$ xdg-open "http://$(docker-compose port nginx 80)/" &>/dev/null &

* PAGINATE_COUNT
* TIME_ZONE
* DATE_FORMAT
* SHORT_DATE_FORMAT
* TIME_FORMAT
* SHORT_TIME_FORMAT
* DATETIME_FORMAT

You can configure the app using environment variables. These are defined in `netbox.env`.

## Rebuilding & Publishing images

`./build.sh` is used to rebuild the Docker image:

```
$ ./build.sh --help
Usage: ./build.sh <branch> [--push]
branch The branch or tag to build. Required.
--push Pushes built Docker image to docker hub.
You can use the following ENV variables to customize the build:
BRANCH The branch to build.
Also used for tagging the image.
DOCKER_REPO The Docker registry (i.e. hub.docker.com/r/DOCKER_REPO/netbox)
Also used for tagging the image.
Default: ninech
SRC_REPO Which fork of netbox to use (i.e. github.com/<SRC_REPO>/netbox).
Default: digitalocean
URL Where to fetch the package from.
Must be a tar.gz file of the source code.
Default: https://github.com/${SRC_REPO}/netbox/archive/$BRANCH.tar.gz
```

## Tests

To run the bundled test, use the `docker-compose.test.yml` file.

```
# docker-compose -f docker-compose.test.yml run --rm app
$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.test.yml run --rm app
```
