+ (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
39
+
40
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
41
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
42
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
43
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
44
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

67
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,

79
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
80
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
81
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
82
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
83
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
84
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
85
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
86
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
87
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
88

98
+ stating that You changed the files; and
99
+
100
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
101
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
102
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
103
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
104
+ the Derivative Works; and
105
+
106
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
107
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
108
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
109
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
110
+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
111
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
112
+ as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
113
+ documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
114
+ within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
115
+ wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
116
+ of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
117
+ do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
118
+ notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
119
+ or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
120
+ that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
121
+ as modifying the License.
122
+
123
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
124
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
125
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
126
+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
127
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
128
+ the conditions stated in this License.
129
+
130
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
131
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
132
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
133
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
134
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
135
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
136
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
137
+
138
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
139
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
140
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
141
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
142
+
143
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
144
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
145
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
146
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
147
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
148
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
149
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
150
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
151
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
152
+
153
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
154
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
155
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
156
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
157
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
158
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
159
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
163
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
164
+
165
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
166
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
167
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
168
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
169
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
170
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
171
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
172
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
173
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
174
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

46
+
47
+ ## Requirements
48
+
49
+ - NetBox 4.0.0 or higher
50
+ - Python 3.10 or higher
51
+
52
+ ## Installation
53
+
54
+ ### Via pip
55
+
56
+ ```bash
57
+ pip install netbox-plugin-catalog
58
+ ```
59
+
60
+ ### Via source
61
+
62
+ ```bash
63
+ git clone https://github.com/sieteunoseis/netbox-plugin-catalog.git
64
+ cd netbox-plugin-catalog
65
+ pip install .
66
+ ```
67
+
68
+ ## Configuration
69
+
70
+ Add the plugin to your `configuration.py`:
71
+
72
+ ```python
73
+ PLUGINS = [
74
+ 'netbox_catalog',
75
+ ]
76
+
77
+ PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
78
+ 'netbox_catalog': {
79
+ 'pypi_cache_timeout': 3600, # Cache PyPI data for 1 hour
80
+ 'catalog_json_url': '', # Optional: remote catalog.json URL
81
+ 'allow_install': True, # Enable/disable pip install feature
82
+ 'show_uncurated': True, # Show plugins not in curated list
83
+ 'pypi_index_url': 'https://pypi.org', # PyPI mirror support
84
+ }
85
+ }
86
+ ```
87
+
88
+ Run migrations:
89
+
90
+ ```bash
91
+ python manage.py migrate
92
+ ```
93
+
94
+ Collect static files:
95
+
96
+ ```bash
97
+ python manage.py collectstatic --no-input
98
+ ```
99
+
100
+ Restart NetBox.
101
+
102
+ ## Usage
103
+
104
+ ### Browsing Plugins
105
+
106
+ Navigate to **Plugins > Plugin Catalog > Browse Plugins** to view all available NetBox plugins.
107
+
108
+ You can filter by:
109
+ - **Search**: Filter by name, summary, or author
110
+ - **Category**: Network Management, Security, Automation, etc.
111
+ - **Certification**: Certified, Compatible, Untested, Deprecated
112
+ - **Status**: Installed, Not Installed, Activated, Upgrade Available
113
+ - **Compatibility**: Compatible, Incompatible, Unknown
114
+
115
+ ### Installing Plugins
116
+
117
+ 1. Click on a plugin to view details
118
+ 2. Click **Install** (or **Upgrade** if already installed)
119
+ 3. Confirm the installation
120
+ 4. Follow the post-installation instructions:
121
+ - Add the plugin to `PLUGINS` in `configuration.py`
122
+ - Run `python manage.py migrate`
123
+ - Run `python manage.py collectstatic`
124
+ - Restart NetBox
125
+
126
+ ### Compatibility Detection
127
+
128
+ The plugin checks compatibility through multiple sources:
129
+
130
+ 1. **Curated catalog**: Manually verified compatibility info in `catalog.json`
131
+ 2. **PluginConfig**: After pip install, reads `min_version`/`max_version` from plugin
132
+ 3. **README parsing**: Attempts to extract version info from description (fallback)
133
+
134
+ Compatibility status is shown with clear indicators:
135
+ - **Compatible**: Plugin works with your NetBox version
136
+ - **Unknown**: No compatibility information available
137
+ - **Incompatible**: Plugin requires a different NetBox version
138
+
139
+ ## Curated Catalog
140
+
141
+ The `catalog.json` file provides curated metadata for plugins:
142
+
143
+ ```json
144
+ {
145
+ "plugins": {
146
+ "netbox-bgp": {
147
+ "category": "Network Management",
148
+ "tags": ["routing", "bgp"],
149
+ "certification": "certified",
150
+ "netbox_min_version": "4.0.0",
151
+ "notes": "Official BGP plugin",
152
+ "recommended": true,
153
+ "featured": true
154
+ }
155
+ }
156
+ }
157
+ ```
158
+
159
+ ### Updating the Catalog
160
+
161
+ You can host your own catalog JSON and configure it:
162
+
163
+ ```python
164
+ PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
165
+ 'netbox_catalog': {
166
+ 'catalog_json_url': 'https://example.com/netbox-plugins.json',
167
+ }
168
+ }
169
+ ```
170
+
171
+ ## Security Considerations
172
+
173
+ - **Permissions**: Only users with `netbox_catalog.add_installationlog` permission can install plugins
174
+ - **pip install**: Runs in the same Python environment as NetBox
175
+ - **Network access**: Requires outbound HTTPS to pypi.org
176
+
177
+ ## Contributing
178
+
179
+ Contributions are welcome! Please feel free to submit issues and pull requests.
180
+
181
+ ### Adding Plugins to Curated Catalog
182
+
183
+ To add a plugin to the curated catalog, submit a PR updating `catalog.json` with:
184
+
185
+ - `category`: One of the predefined categories
186
+ - `tags`: Relevant keywords
187
+ - `certification`: certified, compatible, untested, or deprecated
188
+ - `netbox_min_version`: Minimum supported NetBox version
189
+ - `notes`: Brief description or compatibility notes
190
+ - `recommended`: Whether the plugin is recommended
191
+ - `featured`: Whether to show in featured section

40
+
41
+ ## Configuration
42
+
43
+ Add the plugin to your `configuration.py`:
44
+
45
+ ```python
46
+ PLUGINS = [
47
+ 'netbox_catalog',
48
+ ]
49
+
50
+ PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
51
+ 'netbox_catalog': {
52
+ 'pypi_cache_timeout': 3600, # Cache PyPI data for 1 hour
53
+ 'catalog_json_url': '', # Optional: remote catalog.json URL
54
+ 'allow_install': True, # Enable/disable pip install feature
55
+ 'show_uncurated': True, # Show plugins not in curated list
56
+ 'pypi_index_url': 'https://pypi.org', # PyPI mirror support
57
+ }
58
+ }
59
+ ```
60
+
61
+ Run migrations:
62
+
63
+ ```bash
64
+ python manage.py migrate
65
+ ```
66
+
67
+ Collect static files:
68
+
69
+ ```bash
70
+ python manage.py collectstatic --no-input
71
+ ```
72
+
73
+ Restart NetBox.
74
+
75
+ ## Usage
76
+
77
+ ### Browsing Plugins
78
+
79
+ Navigate to **Plugins > Plugin Catalog > Browse Plugins** to view all available NetBox plugins.
80
+
81
+ You can filter by:
82
+ - **Search**: Filter by name, summary, or author
83
+ - **Category**: Network Management, Security, Automation, etc.
84
+ - **Certification**: Certified, Compatible, Untested, Deprecated
85
+ - **Status**: Installed, Not Installed, Activated, Upgrade Available
86
+ - **Compatibility**: Compatible, Incompatible, Unknown
87
+
88
+ ### Installing Plugins
89
+
90
+ 1. Click on a plugin to view details
91
+ 2. Click **Install** (or **Upgrade** if already installed)
92
+ 3. Confirm the installation
93
+ 4. Follow the post-installation instructions:
94
+ - Add the plugin to `PLUGINS` in `configuration.py`
95
+ - Run `python manage.py migrate`
96
+ - Run `python manage.py collectstatic`
97
+ - Restart NetBox
98
+
99
+ ### Compatibility Detection
100
+
101
+ The plugin checks compatibility through multiple sources:
102
+
103
+ 1. **Curated catalog**: Manually verified compatibility info in `catalog.json`
104
+ 2. **PluginConfig**: After pip install, reads `min_version`/`max_version` from plugin
105
+ 3. **README parsing**: Attempts to extract version info from description (fallback)
106
+
107
+ Compatibility status is shown with clear indicators:
108
+ - **Compatible**: Plugin works with your NetBox version
109
+ - **Unknown**: No compatibility information available
110
+ - **Incompatible**: Plugin requires a different NetBox version
111
+
112
+ ## Curated Catalog
113
+
114
+ The `catalog.json` file provides curated metadata for plugins:
115
+
116
+ ```json
117
+ {
118
+ "plugins": {
119
+ "netbox-bgp": {
120
+ "category": "Network Management",
121
+ "tags": ["routing", "bgp"],
122
+ "certification": "certified",
123
+ "netbox_min_version": "4.0.0",
124
+ "notes": "Official BGP plugin",
125
+ "recommended": true,
126
+ "featured": true
127
+ }
128
+ }
129
+ }
130
+ ```
131
+
132
+ ### Updating the Catalog
133
+
134
+ You can host your own catalog JSON and configure it:
135
+
136
+ ```python
137
+ PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
138
+ 'netbox_catalog': {
139
+ 'catalog_json_url': 'https://example.com/netbox-plugins.json',
140
+ }
141
+ }
142
+ ```
143
+
144
+ ## Security Considerations
145
+
146
+ - **Permissions**: Only users with `netbox_catalog.add_installationlog` permission can install plugins
147
+ - **pip install**: Runs in the same Python environment as NetBox
148
+ - **Network access**: Requires outbound HTTPS to pypi.org
149

153
+
154
+ ### Adding Plugins to Curated Catalog
155
+
156
+ To add a plugin to the curated catalog, submit a PR updating `catalog.json` with:
157
+
158
+ - `category`: One of the predefined categories
159
+ - `tags`: Relevant keywords
160
+ - `certification`: certified, compatible, untested, or deprecated
161
+ - `netbox_min_version`: Minimum supported NetBox version
162
+ - `notes`: Brief description or compatibility notes
163
+ - `recommended`: Whether the plugin is recommended
164
+ - `featured`: Whether to show in featured section
