## Python Requirements
The `plugin_requirements.txt` file needs to contain all the plugins that are required.

## NetBox Configuration
To get plugins to work within NetBox you need to add some configuration to `configuration.py`.
```
PLUGINS = ["netbox_onboarding"]
```python
PLUGINS = ["netbox_secretstore"]
# PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
# "netbox_onboarding": {
# "netbox_secretstore": {
# ADD YOUR SETTINGS HERE

The new `Dockerfile-Plugins` will enable us to build a new image with the required plugins installed.

## Docker Compose Override
`docker-compose.override.yml`, as its name implies, can contain configuration overrides for existing services or entirely new services.
```
```yaml

This configuration will change the ports `netbox` will use. It will also select the build file created in previous steps and tell the `netbox-worker` service to now use the new image (`netbox:latest-plugins`) that has been created.
## Build and Deploy
To build and deploy this in docker two commands are required.
```
```bash
docker-compose build --no-cache
docker-compose up -d
```
