Data Sources
A data source represents some external repository of data which NetBox can consume, such as a git repository. Files within the data source are synchronized to NetBox by saving them in the database as data file objects.
Fields
Name
The data source's human-friendly name.
Type
The type of data source. Supported options include:
- Local directory
- git repository
URL
The URL identifying the remote source. Some examples are included below.
| Type | Example URL |
|---|---|
| Local | file:///var/my/data/source/ |
| git | https://https://github.com/my-organization/my-repo |
Status
The source's current synchronization status. Note that this cannot be set manually: It is updated automatically when the source is synchronized.
Enabled
If false, synchronization will be disabled.
Ignore Rules
A set of rules (one per line) identifying filenames to ignore during synchronization. Some examples are provided below. See Python's fnmatch() documentation for a complete reference.
| Rule | Description |
|---|---|
README |
Ignore any files named README |
*.txt |
Ignore any files with a .txt extension |
data???.json |
Ignore e.g. data123.json |
Last Synced
The date and time at which the source was most recently synchronized successfully.
