snipe-it

New in v5.0.9

Happy Tuesday again, friends :) Sorry for the double release today, but we discovered a conflict with the new asset counter in the sidenav and the SAML integration, since the SAML routes are loaded as a service provider. This change wouldn't affect you unless you access the SAML settings, but it's a teeny tiny update, so it's worth patching in.

Effectively, the middleware that pulls in those asset count numbers (number of deployed, etc, to inject it into the sidebar) only gets loaded on web middleware. When using our standard routing, everything gets pulled in under that web middleware. Since this was loaded via service provider, web had to be explicitly stated (and wasn't), so the middleware that gets those totals wasn't being loaded, resulting in the variable the sidenav uses not ever being set. It's a small changeset, and it's always a little awkward to have to release twice in one day due to a missed error, but go ahead and get your upgrade on.

For a full list of changes, see the complete changelog.

A Note on LDAP and Okta: As many of you know, the LDAP functionality was rewritten from the ground up in version 5, and while it's been working fine for many people, we are seeing some odd throttling for folks using Okta as their LDAP provider. We're in touch with Okta now, trying to get to the bottom of it (as we're unsure if we're unintentionally beating up their API without realizing it, or if something changed on their end and it was just a crappy coincidence), but in the meantime, self-hosted folks can potentially test out this PR which reverts some of that functionality back to the v4 line. This solution isn't exactly ideal, as it means the LDAP login and LDAP sync use different methods, but if it works better for Okta customers, we'll merge that into master and re-factor it to be a little less gnarly looking.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: This release requires PHP 7.2.0 or greater. ⚠️

Upgrading

If your minimum password setting in Admin > Settings was previously less than 8, you should change this to 8 or greater before upgrading. Failure to update this may cause other settings to fail on saving.

If you're running into an issue with images not showing up, that's due to an outdated version of upgrade.php (outdated because of us, not you.) That script unfortunately tries (tried) to move your files to the Laravel-approved storage directory. Since that was last updated, we decided not to use that file path, so if you upgraded using upgrade.php and your images are coming up broken, please move the files in app/storage/uploads back to public/uploads and remove the symlink the upgrader created for you. (After v5.0.0, the upgrader was patched to not move those files anymore, so if you skipped the v5.0.0 upgrade you should be fine and no action is needed.)

New in v5.0.8

Happy Tuesday, friends :) This is largely a bug fix release for some unusual use-cases that folks have been kind enough to share with us, including the dashboard pie chart, SAML integration, and LDAP syncing.

It also addresses an issue where users of some email clients (such as Gmail) would not have the images in notifications loading properly. (This is due to Gmail opting not to parse base_64 encoded images.) The attachment method has been changed to cid, so that issue should be resolved by upgrading to this version.

New in v5.0.7

Happy Tuesday, everyone! This is a bug fix release that should handle a bunch of smaller UI bugs, and will hopefully help with some LDAP quirkiness you've all been kind enough to document and report for us.

Note: We did miss updating version.php to reflect that this is from the master branch, so it may be confusing to see develop instead of master in your Snipe-IT footer, but this release is definitely based off the master branch. It seemed like it would be more confusing to delete/edit the tag after it was already pushed.

Fixed

• Fixed [ch15347] - added status in Depreciation Report
• Fixed [ch9336] - Removed time in Depreciation report (it's a date, not a datetime field)
• Fixed #8448 - “undefined” when testing email from quickstart
• Throw an error if the asset cannot be updated in the merge-users script (possible when assets fail validation on save due to serial uniqueness constraint, etc)
• Add ability to checkout an asset if the user it’s assigned_to isn’t valid. This would only happen if a merge-users went wonky
• Make last_checkout and expected_checkin fillable for API calls
• Fixed css to the bootstrap popovers for all dark mode skins (#8714)
• Exclude blank LDAP attributes
• Fixed markdown in expiring licenses alert
• Fixed #8726 - disallow archived assets to be checked out
• Enable translations of checkin notifications (#8235) and accepted assets page (#8237)
• Switch to use same convention for file names on licenses as we do on assets
• Fixed #8715 - wrong API url for unaccepted assets
• Fixed offset issue for #8732
• Fixed #8669 - Allow application/xml in SAML upload in Safari
• Updated Laravel version in README
• Added S3 url into CSP
• Fixes for #8732 - Flysystem paths, S3 migrator script
• Fixed #8733 - typo in unaccepted assets report
• Fixed #8609 - custom fieldsets not draggable anymore (regression)
• Fixed #8544 - escaping on maintenance notes
• Fixed #8737 - incorrect validation string for components qty update
• Fixed #8746 - missing comma in a translation file (#8756)

• Fixed #7850 - allow .xlsx file in upload. (#8386)
• Fixed Spanish translations duplicate string
• Fixed #8482 - Ubuntu version (#8598)
• Removed duplicate date from date macro

New in v5.0.6

This is a small point release that adds a little extra functionality for extending the life of your API keys. Keys prior to this version will expire in one year, however we've added a much longer expiration for these now, which defaults to 20 years. If you'd like to override this with a shorter (or longer) expiration, add API_TOKEN_EXPIRATION_YEARS=X (where X is the number of years you want them to expire in) to your .env and clear your config cache with php artisan config:cache.

We certainly could have waited to push this out into a release later in the week, but it seemed too useful not to share it right away.

Added

• Added created_at and expires_at to Account API token UI
• Added configured API expiration in years to API token sidebar for clarity
• Fixed #8673 - added category to accessories listing on Account > Assigned Assets

⚠️ IMPORTANT: This release requires PHP 7.2.0 or greater. ⚠️

It's finally here!

The long-awaited v5 of Snipe-IT is finally here. I'm probably missing some of the new features and fixes in this changelog, but I'm doing my best to recount the past two years of work here.

We've rewritten the LDAP/AD functionality from the ground up, which will hopefully make those integrations a little less painful. We've also gone through several framework upgrades (sometimes because we wanted that functionality and sometimes because there were security updates that we just had to upgrade to whether we wanted to or not.)

The small things matter as much to us as the big ones do, so we've spent some time trying to really refine some of the commonly used UI elements, for example the improved logo upload+preview interface:

We've also added the ability to add multiple new assets at once from the create asset interface:

Now that master and develop are back at parity (and boy, it's been a while for that), expect our normal fever-pitch velocity to be back with gusto. There are still so many things we have on deck - new features, improvements, and even new products. We thank you all so much for your patience and support. <3

Note: S3 functionality for file storage is still in beta. We had hoped to launch v5 with that fully working, but we realized that not that many of our users care that deeply about it, and it would only delay us further. We'll be tweaking and tuning that functionality over the next month or two tho.

Another Note: Our beta versions of "kits" allowed for accessories and license, etc - we discovered a bug where while non-assets are checked out, they don't get recorded in history if the quantity is greater than one, so we've pulled those options for now. Once we have a chance to correct that bug, we'll be adding licenses, accessories, etc back into the new Kit feature.

Added

• Added attempted logins admin screen
• Added better support for NFC/RFID/Barcode scanners in select boxes
• Added ability to trigger password reset emails for users
• Added Raspbian 9.4 to snipeit.sh installer

Upgrading from v3

Please see the upgrade instructions here.

New from v5.0.0-beta-6 to v5.0.0-beta-7-GM

This is the golden master for Snipe-IT v5. Primary in this release are some critical fixes for AD login.

IMPORTANT: This version of Snipe-IT requires PHP 7.2 or greater

Fixed

• Fixed lost ldap password on save when nothing entered
• Fixed some logic bugs in the AD-specific code for logging in via AD/LDAP
• Use password security settings on password reset

Improved

• Small UI improvements to API keys page

Want to Help Test?

Awesome! First things first, you should NOT test this in production yet, as it's a beta release. If you'd like to help us test, make a new copy of Snipe-IT and upgrade your copy to v5.0.0-beta-4.0, that way your data is safe. You should treat this test instance as a version you could easily throw away when you're done testing. (Hopefully it won't come to that, but hey, computers are hard.)

Things we're very interested in folks testing:

• LDAP/AD integration (login and sync)
• Flysystem - Using S3 to store files and also testing that local file storage still works. Local file storage is more important, as we'll be releasing v5 with S3 integration as an experimental feature
• Client-side validation
• The importer, as always - that thing's a bear

If you need to create new bug reports for this beta release, please make sure you include the beta release version in the Github issue title so we can easily see that it's an issue specific to this beta.

IMPORTANT: This version of Snipe-IT requires PHP 7.2 or greater

Want to Help Test?

Awesome! First things first, you should NOT test this in production yet, as it's a beta release. If you'd like to help us test, make a new copy of Snipe-IT and upgrade your copy to v5.0.0-beta-4.0, that way your data is safe. You should treat this test instance as a version you could easily throw away when you're done testing. (Hopefully it won't come to that, but hey, computers are hard.)

Things we're very interested in folks testing:

• LDAP/AD integration (login and sync)
• Flysystem - Using S3 to store files and also testing that local file storage still works. Local file storage is more important, as we'll be releasing v5 with S3 integration as an experimental feature
• Client-side validation
• The importer, as always - that thing's a bear
