# PhoneBox Plugin

A Telephone Number Management Plugin for [NetBox] and more.

>The plugin versions 0.0.1b1-0.0.1b4 support NetBox 2.10.x versions.
>
>Latest plugin version 0.0.1b5 supports NetBox 2.11.0+ versions

I described some general considerations behind the plugin development and
future plans in my [blog post].

### Preview

# Supported Features and Models

### Numbers

The plugin currently implements a Number abstraction representing a single
telephone number of an arbitrary format.<br/>
A Number can consist of valid DTMF characters and leading plus sign for
E.164 support:
  - leading plus ("+") sign (optional)
  - digits 0-9
  - characters A, B, C, D
  - pound sign ("#")
  - asterisk sign ("*")

Sample valid numbers: +12341234567, 1000, 123#2341234567, *100#.<br/>
Numbers are stored without delimiters. They will be implemented as an
additional formatting function.<br/>
Number values can be not unique.
Tenant is a mandatory option representing a number partition. Number and
Tenant are globally unique.<br/>
A Number can optionally be assigned with Provider and Region
relations.<br/>
A Number can contain an optional Description.<br/>
A Number can optionally be tagged with Tags.<br/>
<br/>
The plugin supports Bulk Edit and Delete operations for Numbers.

### Voice Circuits

Voice Circuit is an entity on a voice-enabled device representing a
physical or virtual connection to another voice-enabled device.
The plugin supports the following voice circuit types:
- SIP Trunk.
- Digital Voice Circuit (PRI/BRI/etc).
- Analog Voice Circuit (CO lines/etc).

A Voice Circuit must be assigned to an interface of a Device or Virtual
Machine.

### Plugin API

The plugin introduces a NetBox REST API extension
`/api/plugins/phonebox/`.<br/>
It currently supports all create, read, update, and delete operations for
Numbers via `/api/plugins/phonebox/numbers/`.<br/>
The API is compatible with [pynetbox]:
```
>>> nb.plugins.phonebox.numbers.get(7)
2000
>>> 
```

# Installation

General installation steps and considerations follow the [official
guidelines].

### Package Installation from PyPi

Assuming you use a Virtual Environment for Netbox:
```
$ source /opt/netbox/venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip3 install phonebox-plugin
```

### Package Installation from Source Code
The source code is available on [GitHub].<br/>
Download and install the package. Assuming you use a Virtual Environment
for Netbox:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/iDebugAll/phonebox_plugin
$ cd phonebox_plugin
$ source /opt/netbox/venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip3 install .
```

To ensure NextBox UI plugin is automatically re-installed during future
upgrades, create a file named `local_requirements.txt` (if not already
existing) in the NetBox root directory (alongside `requirements.txt`) and
list the `phonebox_plugin` package:

```no-highlight
# echo phonebox_plugin >> local_requirements.txt
```
