NAME

App::NetdiscoX::Web::Plugin::RANCID - Link to device backups in RANCID/WebSVN

SYNOPSIS

 # in your ~/environments/deployment.yml file
  
 extra_web_plugins:
   - X::RANCID
 
 plugin_rancid:
   location: 'websvn-server.example.com/rancid'
   open_in_new_window: true

Description

This is a plugin for the App::Netdisco network management application. It adds a row to the Device Details page named "RANCID" with a link to your local RANCID/WebSVN installation hosting the device configuation backups.

Configuration

Create an entry in your ~/environments/deployment.yml file named "plugin_rancid", containing the following settings:

location

Value: String, Required.

Name of the server hosting your local WebSVN installation. This should also include the path under which backup files are stored for the devices.

open_in_new_window

Value: Boolean. Default: false.

If set to true, the hyperlink is configured to open the WebSVN page in a new browser window or tab.

TODO

At the moment the device name is used in the link. This is kind of useless for most installations. Needs config to control how to specify device in generated link.
