Network Inventory

I started this project in order to have solution for keeping an inventory over my various servers and other network equipment.

The idea later expanded to be an inventory for multiple customers. In addition the customers should be able to access their inventory but only see the items they own.

This project consists of the backend in Django and the frontend written in VueJS.

Production Setup

1. Clone the repository
2. Copy the .env-example file to .env and change the POSTGRES_PASSWORD and DJANGO_SECRET_KEY variables to something secure.
3. Replace the value for NI_HOST to the domain of your website. If you want to debug the backend NI_MODE to development.
4. Run docker-compose up and connect to domain defined in NI_HOST

Environment Variables

To customise the application in the Docker container you can use environment variables in the docker-compose.yml file. Currently the following variables are supported.

• DJANGO_SECRET_KEY the secret key is mandatory, otherwise the application doesn't run. Make sure that it is some long random string.
• DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE the path to the settings file to use in the container. This requires a dotet syntax. The default is network_inventory.settings.docker.
• NI_HOST the domain from you serve the application. This is required in order for the backend to work properly.
• NI_MODE the state of the application, should be production for a production environment.

Documentation

Currently there isn't a lot of documentation present.
