snipeit-it based asset management app

HardWhere

SEEMOO Accessories Retrieval System (HardWhere)

App + who-lent-to-whom functions based on [snipe-it]

This repo contains the mobile app, the required snipe-it patches and the "lent-by" backend that works in tandem with [snipe-it]

The backend daemon ist expected to handle all of the example.com/HardWhere/* requests and exposes its own API and webview at this path.

Currently compatible with snipeit v5.4.3

Building the daemon

install requirements: apt install libssl-dev pkg-config For other distributions see here

Get rustc and run cargo build --release

Log settings for the daemon

The RUST_LOG environment vairable can be set. Examples: RUST_LOG=hardwhere_backend=trace or for the full show RUST_LOG=trace You can also specify it for multiple moduls RUST_LOG=hardwhere_backend=debug,actix_web=trace.

Possible values are trace,debug,info,warn,error

Example apache config for backend

Running the daemon together on the same machine with snipeit. The daemon is expected to be present on /HardWhere for the app.

<VirtualHost *:443>
[...]
  <Location /HardWhere>
      ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8000/HardWhere
      ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:8000/HardWhere
      ProxyPreserveHost On
  </Location>

Structure

• src/ contains the additional backend, referred to as HardWhere-Backend or daemon, used for
  • indexing who lent to whom
  • providing return/lent APIs for the app, so the index in the backend is updated at the same time
  • regularly making sure the default fieldset is applied to all models that have none
  • providing a webview on https:///HardWhere/ for inspecting lent assets without using the app
• static/ is part of the HardWhere-Backend, containing templates, CSS icons and other stuff for the webview, it's required to be relative to the daemon application
• hardwhere.patch contains code applied to snipeit to provide app login via QR code and auto-login from the snipeit menu into the HardWhere-Backend webview
• app/ contains the sourcecode for the android app
• res/ app resources

Workflow

You can open this folder as an android App in android studio and in VS Code for the HardWhere-Backend. It is recommended to use VS Code with the rust-analyzer plugin for it.

You can build the app via gradle or in android studio. HardWhere-Backend can be build using cargo build --release, --release being optional.

For the integration with snipeit you'll have to upgrade hardwhere.patch for new snipeit versions.
