To draft a release;
update the setup.py file to reflect the new version, then from the *src*
directory run
::
```
# make sure to update the version in netbox_slm/__init__.py
$ python setup.py sdist
$ twine upload dist/*

automated with a github workflow.

## Developer Guide (local installation)
*Follow the steps below on your local system to run netbox and the
netbox_slm plugin in developer mode*
Setup
~~~~~
### Setup
The goal below is to run all Netbox components in Docker and run a local
Netbox Django copy with auto-reload to develop the plugin pointing to
the Dockerized postgres and redis instances, basically ignoring the
netbox docker runtime server.
Steps
~~~~~
::
### Steps
from your projects directory clone the netbox repository
```
$ git clone https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox
$ cd netbox
```
install the virtual environment
```
$ pipenv shell
$ pipenv install
```
create and edit netbox/configuration.py (based on the template file) add these lines at the end of the file;
```
DEBUG = True
SECRET_KEY = 'dummy'
DEVELOPER = True
PLUGINS = [
'netbox_slm',
]
```
The Netbox installation above will be used to run Django management
commands like runserver, makemigrations and migrate, which will be
explained in the next steps below;
::
from your projects directory clone the netbox-slm repository
```
$ git clone https://github.com/ICTU/netbox_slm
$ cd netbox_slm
$ ./start-netbox.sh
```
This will start Netbox locally (requires Docker) and forward the redis
