[netbox] LDAP does not work anymore with 1.2.9

[mscbpi]

A working LDAP configuration with Active Directory does not work anymore when upgrading to 1.2.9

Rollback to 1.2.8 and it works again.

[mscbpi]

docker image v2.9-*-ldap has a miss : netbox-community/netbox-docker#324

it does not include necessary configuration in configuration.py.

REMOTE_AUTH_ENABLED="true"
REMOTE_AUTH_BACKEND="netbox.authentication.LDAPBackend"
AUTH_USER_MODEL="auth.User"

workaround:
create a ConfigMap and mount it as extraVolumeMounts in values.yaml.

extraVolumes: 
 - name: netbox-test-config 
   configMap:
    defaultMode: 420
    name: netbox-test-config
   
   
extraVolumeMounts: 
 -  name: netbox-test-config
    mountPath: /etc/netbox/config/configuration.py
    subPath: configuration.py

https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-docker/releases v0.26 of netbox image addresses this issue.

netbox helm chart not maintained anymore ? looking at your home README ... https://github.com/enix/helm-charts#charts-collection :(

Hi, sorry for the delay.

netbox-docker v1.0 changed a lot the structure of chart, and we were lacking time to address that change. (Not as quick as originaly though it would be). So we are considering deprecating this chart in favor of https://github.com/bootc/netbox-chart
If you see some show-stopper using the bootc's chart, let us know.

Hi,

We have migrated to https://github.com/bootc/netbox-chart

Thanks for the support until now ;)

Wouldn't it be worth to suggest this K8s deployment into netbox-community ? They do maintain docker image but stick to docker-compose for deployment, which is a bit outdated nowadays.
