NetBox version

v3.6.4

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

NetBox has AUTH_EXEMPT_PATHS variable in which stored urls that exempted from authentication if LOGIN_REQUIRED is true.
At this moment user can't modify AUTH_EXEMPT_PATHS variable in configuration.py.
My idea is to move AUTH_EXEMPT_PATHS variable definition from settings.py to configuration.py, so user can change the variable.

Use case

At my daily job we developed some plugins for NetBox (in NetBox instance LOGIN_REQUIRED is set to true), we want to provide access to some pages in these plugins without authentication and don't change NetBox source code.
So it would be great to have the opportunity to change AUTH_EXEMPT_PATHS variable.
Also, you can assign this issue to me, and I will create PR.

Database changes

No changes.

External dependencies

No dependencies.

Rather than allowing the user's to edit, we should extent the variable AUTH_EXEMPT_PATHS with the user provided values. This will ensure the defaults are not altered.

Hi @abhi1693, this is a good point about extending the variable instead of editing, if your team is ok with that approach, I can implement this (extend variable AUTH_EXEMPT_PATHS ) in PR
