Pull requests welcome!

about

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

Plan:

  • Web-based

  • Multiuser ready

  • Chaotic warehousing

    • Grouped “Storage”: Graphics card is in computer XY

  • Data structure kept as general as possible

  • You should be able to add the following to the items:

    • Storage location

    • State

    • Pictures and Files

    • URLs

    • receiving and delivering (when, from whom, at what price, etc.)

    • 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… ;)

Project structure

There are two main directories:

directory

description

`/src/`_

The main PyInventory source code

`/deployment/`_

deploy PyInventory for production use case

install

There exists these kind of installation/usage:

  • local development installation using poetry

  • production use with docker-compose on a root server

  • Install as YunoHost App via pyinventory_ynh

This README contains only the information about local development installation.

Read /deployment/README for instruction to install PyInventory on a root server.

local development installation

e.g.:

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

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

~/PyInventory$ ./devshell.py run_testserver

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: ./devshell.py run_testserver --help

Call manage commands from test project, e.g.:

~/PyInventory$ ./devshell.py manage --help

local docker dev run

You can run the deployment docker containers with current source code with:

~/PyInventory$ make run-docker-dev-server

Just hit Cntl-C to stop the containers

The web page is available via: https://localhost/

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.:

normal user example

Backwards-incompatible changes

v0.7.0

Docker-Compose usage: The MEDIA files was not stored on a docker volumes.

You should backup rhe media files before update the containers!

e.g.:

~/PyInventory/deployment$ make shell_inventory
root@inventory:/django# cp -Rfv /media/ /django_volumes/media/

The files are stored locally here:

~/PyInventory/deployment$ ls -la volumes/django/media/

Now, update the containers and copy the files back.

v0.5.0

Git branches “master” and “deployment” was merged into one. Files are separated into: “/src/” and “/development/”
