about

The focus of this project is on the management of retro computing hardware.

Current features:

• Web-based
• Multiuser ready (Every user see and manage only his own entries)
• Chaotic warehousing
  • Grouped "Items" e.g.: Graphics card Foo is in computer Bar
• Data structure kept as general as possible
• Manage information to every item:
  • Description: free WYSIWYG-HTML-Editor field
  • Storage location
  • State
  • Images, Files and Web-Links
  • receiving and delivering (when, from whom, at what price, etc.)
• Manage "Memos" (Information independent of item/location):
  • A free WYSIWYG-HTML-Editor field
  • Tags
  • Images, Files and Web-Links

Future ideas:

• Information: Publicly visible yes/no
  • A public list of existing items (think about it, you can set in your profile if you want to)
  • administration a wish & exchange list

any many more... ;)

Multi user support

PyInventory supports multiple users. The idea:

• Every normal user sees only his own created database entries
• All users used the Django admin

Note: All created Tags are shared for all existing users!

So setup a normal user:

• Set "Staff status"
• Unset "Superuser status"
• Add user to "normal_user" group
• Don't add any additional permissions

e.g.:

local development installation

e.g.:

# Clone project (Use your fork SSH url!):
~$ git clone https://github.com/jedie/PyInventory.git
~$ cd PyInventory
~/PyInventory$ ./manage.py

Helpful for writing and debugging unittests is to run a local test server. e.g.:

~/PyInventory$ ./manage.py run_dev_server

The web page is available via: http://127.0.0.1:8000/

You can also pass a other port number or ipaddr:port combination. See: ./manage.py run_dev_server --help

Run tests, e.g.:

~/PyInventory$ ./manage.py test
~/PyInventory$ ./manage.py coverage
~/PyInventory$ ./manage.py tox

Install Playwright browsers, e.g.:

~/PyInventory$ .venv/bin/playwright install

Run only Playwright tests with the Playwright Inspector, e.g.:

~/PyInventory$ PWDEBUG=1 ./manage.py test --tag playwright

Backwards-incompatible changes

v0.19.0

• Remove "/development/" (unmaintained "docker-compose" installation), please use YunoHost ;)
• Removed django-processinfo and django-axes in test project.
• Remove poetry, pytest and devshell
• Use pip-tools, unittests and manage_django_project

v0.20

Because of security reasons, the ckeditor package was replaced by prose-editor.

In 0.20.1 we switched to https://github.com/jazzband/django-tinymce/ because prose-editor has no table support.
