Version 2.8.0

Noteworthy Changes

Update postgres Docker tag to v16 #1082

Our docker-compose file was updated to use PostgreSQL 16.

Note that you will need to take manual action after you upgrade a live PostgreSQL database.
If your database is not too big, a full backup (with PostgreSQL 15, i.e. before the upgrade) and restore (with a clean PostgreSQL 15, i.e. after the upgrade) is probably the easiest to achieve. Our troubleshooting wiki page has instructions on how to backup and restore a Netbox database. Please test the procedure on a test system first!

Note that there is no requirement to update to PostgreSQL 16, you can stick to version 15 just fine. You could do this with a docker-compose.override.yml like so:

version: '3.4'
services:
  postgres:
    image: postgres:15-alpine

Version 2.6.1

Noteworthy Changes

Preparation for Netbox 3.5 #990

• Removes Napalm from the image, because all things Napalm have been removed from Netbox core and are now a plugin
• Removes Gunicorn from the image, because it hat not been used
• Removes BASE_PATH environment variable
  Changing the base path where Netbox is served, needs more changes than changing this variable. To prevent surprises we have removed it.
• Netbox 3.5 changed how it handles custom scripts and reports. To be compatible with this change, the bind mounts for those reports and scripts have been removed from the docker-compose.yml. If you currently have custom files in one of those directories, you will have to upload them into Netbox. This can be done in the UI.
• Please also read the release note for Netbox.
