Web based management to catalog things including state and location etc. using Python/Django.

The project is in an early stage of development. Some things are already implemented and usable. But there is still a lot to do.

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

    * 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 |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------------+

.. _/src/: https://github.com/jedie/PyInventory/tree/master/src
.. _/deployment/: https://github.com/jedie/PyInventory/tree/master/deployment

-------
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 <https://yunohost.org>`_ App via `pyinventory_ynh <https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/pyinventory_ynh>`_

This README contains only the information about local development installation.

Read `/deployment/README <https://github.com/jedie/PyInventory/tree/master/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/``

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/"
