Junos
Juniper Junos — interfaces, routing, security policies, commits
weave junos
Env: JUNOS_HOST
Setup
Configure credentials via environment variables. We recommend sourcing them through 1Password or your secrets manager rather than committing them to the shell rc.
Official API reference
weave commands for this module are checked against the vendor's published API.

snapshot → edit YAML →
diff → apply --yes (or confirm
interactively; apply --dry-run previews the same diff).
State kinds
Resources this module can snapshot and
diff; apply where the kind supports
live writes (see Round-trip per kind). Always run
diff before apply; use
--yes in automation after review. Files live under
.weave-state/junos/.
This module is on the thinner integration path — use snapshot / diff for audit; confirm apply per kind below before relying on writes.
inventory
junos inventory — field-level apply via REST.
State file skeleton
module: junos kind: inventory items: - # <fields specific to this kind — see snapshot output>
Workflows
End-to-end recipes from operators who already run this module in production. Copy, adapt, and put under change-control.
Inventory audit
Snapshot and diff inventory.
weave junos snapshot inventory $EDITOR .weave-state/junos/inventory.yaml weave junos diff inventory weave junos apply inventory
Terraform parity
For each Terraform resource in the canonical provider, here's the equivalent live-API verb in weave. Use this as a migration cheat-sheet, not a 1:1 contract — weave deliberately stays in the live-state lane, not the desired-state lane.
| Terraform resource | weave equivalent |
|---|---|
| junos_inventory | weave junos snapshot/diff/apply inventory Snapshot/diff for audit; confirm apply on the module page. |
Troubleshooting & source
Run weave doctor — it reports which env
vars (including JUNOS_HOST) are set
and which are blank.
Re-run weave junos diff <kind>
to confirm the controller's current state, then re-snapshot
before the next apply. The driver always re-snapshots
before diffing.
