Breaking Changes / Porting Guide

  • 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:
        name: Test66
        device_type:
          id: "{{ some_jinja_variable }}"
        device_role: Core Switch
        site: Test Site
        status: Staged
      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. (https://github.com/netbox-community/ansible_modules/pull/269)

Breaking Changes / Porting Guide

  • 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
