snipe-it

New in v5

IMPORTANT: This version of Snipe-IT requires PHP 7.1.3 or greater.

We're thrilled to announce the beta release of the long-awaited Snipe-IT v5! Lots of stuff is changed under the hood, as we've upgraded the underlying framework to Laravel 5.7, but there are tons of bugfixes and new features, as well as some UI improvements.

One of the bigger changes to the system is the introduction of Flysystem support, which means you can host your asset uploads, logos, etc on S3 or Rackspace.

We've also reworked a lot of the backend LDAP functionality and made the UI on the LDAP settings page a little easier to use.

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:

Additionally, we've cleaned up the contextual help, and added a Save button at the top of forms that tend to run a little longer.

Plus, we have (very basic) client-side validation to help give you more immediate feedback if you've missed a required field in the forms.

But wait - there's more! Here's a full list of the changes:

Added

• Added attempted logins admin screen
• Added better support for NFC/RFID/Barcode scanners in select boxes

• Added #5957 - Flysystem support #6262 which allows you to use S3 or Rackspace to host your file uploads
• Added accessories images for seeder
• Better validation for manager_id on User model
• Added save button at top of long create/edit forms
• Added basic front-end validation
• Added alt tags to logo
• Added toggleDisabled on form validator
• Better logic for disallowing company selection when user is not a superadmin and FMCS is enabled
• Make dashboard snapshots clickable
• Added #6349 - add view permission for print all assigned

• Added #6464 - added company name to searchable field in user search
• Added ability to upload favicon and email logo
• Added #6099 - XML as new uploadable file type
• Added #6241 - user license api endpoint

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-1.0, 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)
• Using S3 to store files. We've built a little tool to help you migrate your local files to S3, which you can read about here.
• 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.

New in v4.6.9

This is a minor bugfix release that addresses a few small API issues, and a few issues affecting user management.

For the API, we now return a 200 error instead of a 404 error when you search for an asset using the byTag() endpoint, which makes it consistent with the rest of the API. Additionally, if you send blank values to the asset update endpoint, those values will now be correctly nulled. (Previously they would not be, and the original value would be unchanged.)

For the web UI, we fixed a bug where if a location a user was the manager of was deleted, the user could not be deleted. We now no longer count deleted locations against that user deletion eligibility check. And finally, we fixed a bug where a user that previously had permissions groups assigned could not be removed from all groups. (You could control+click to deselect it, but the deselection would not be honored on save.)

API: Fixed

• Fixed #6633 - return 200 (was 404) status code on asset by tag endpoint [BREAKING]
• Fixed #6113 - use $asset->fill() vs filled() to allow blanking values via API
• User notes field is now editable via API

Web UI: Fixed

• Do not count deleted locations in managedLocations() check on user delete
• Fixed #6061 - Allow the deselection of all user groups on user edit

IMPORTANT: This will be one of the final releases of Snipe-IT that will work with PHP5. Future versions of Snipe-IT will require PHP 7.1.3 or greater. Please start upgrading your versions of PHP to 7.1.3 to prepare for the next major release. There may be a few small bug fix releases before Snipe-IT v5, but you should start preparing now.

Known Issues

Snipe-IT v4.x is not compatible with PHP 7.3. You'll need to use a version of PHP between 5.6.4 and 7.2.x. This is due to a limitation of the underlying framework. The upcoming v5 will support 7.3+.

Users running MariaDB 10.2.7 and later may have an issue upgrading or installing, due to a change in the way MariaDB stores null defaults. This issue will be fixed once the open pull request in the Doctrine repo is merged and a new version of Doctrine is released with these fixes. You can read more about that issue here.

New in v4.6.5

This release fixes a few bugs that will impact all users. Primarily it fixes an issue where the activated checkbox was not pre-checked when editing a user, which could potentially cause that user to be deactivated, and also fixes a sorting bug in the assets view when sorting by model.

New in v4.6.0

This release fixes a few regression issues from the last few releases related to checkin/checkout email notifications and assets pending acceptance.

We also discovered and fixed an issue with authorization gates that would erroneously display a "checkin" button for license seats that were not actually checked out if a non-admin user had a particular set of granular permissions. Clicking on that "checkin" button would result in a "whoops" error, since it was trying to checkin an asset that wasn't checked out in the first place.

We've added a nicer UI on the asset and license file upload interface as well, which will now show you the names of the files you're uploading.

A new logging table has been added to track login attempts (successful and unsuccessful), although there isn't a UI that exposes that just yet. (Next release.)

And finally, we've cleaned up the Low Inventory email report and the Expiring Assets email report. Behold, the before and after!

New in v4.4.1

IMPORTANT: This will be one of the final releases of Snipe-IT that will work with PHP5. Future versions of Snipe-IT will require PHP 7.1.3 or greater. Please start upgrading your versions of PHP to 7.1.3 to prepare for the next release. There may be a few small bug fix releases before Snipe-IT v5, but you should start preparing now.

This release contains a single small bugfix that addresses an issue where the new (v.4.4.0) expected checkin alerts were not checking for more than 0 results before firing the email. This means that if you had no checkins coming due on your assets, you'd still get the expected checkin alert, but with no assets listed.

Fixed:

• Check for assets > 0 before firing expected checkin alerts notification

Please start upgrading your versions of PHP to 7.1.3 to prepare for the next release. There may be a few small bug fix releases before Snipe-IT v5, but you should start preparing now.

This release contains several bug fixes, including one that could impact users with a large number of assets and/or log entries in the action_logs table, slowing things down quite a bit.

Note: In order to apply the de-normalization migration, we have to walk through each of your assets in the assets table. This means your migrations might take a little longer than usual. It's nothing to worry about, and that migration only needs to be run once.

We've also added category support for licenses, something folks have been asking for for a while. Email notifications will follow the same category-based rules for licenses as they do for other items in Snipe-IT.

New:

• Added license categories
• Include EULA/acceptance in license interfaces
• Added admin alert on expected checkins
• Added #5477 - added GDPR privacy policy link in email and webpage
• Added #5491 - added default location filter for custom report
• Added more flexible date range in datepicker for expected checkin filter
• Added orange bar for required asset to edit blade for asset maintenance

Fixed:

• Fixed advanced search on model number
• Fixed #5472 - show_in_email for custom fields missing in edit field UI
• Fixed #5482 - typo in custom fields info
• Fixed another php7.2 count issue
• Fixed dashboard issue that broke category breakdown table scrolling
• Fixed slack notification error if location is not set on checkin
• Fixed #5500 - present() on correct location value in custom report
• Fixed #5501 - regression disallowing license files to be downloaded
• Fixed padding on next page with Chrome. (#5509)
• Fixed speed issue with new counters from v4.2.0 - De-normalize new counters from 4.3.0 (#5547)
• Fixed category tests

API

• Added licenses_count in Categories API result payload
• Added category JSON object in Licenses API

Documentation

• Added documentation on the Asset Counter Sync cli tool.

Known Issues

If your MySQL defaults to MyISAM as a storage engine (which it shouldn't, since InnoDB has been the default since MySQL 5.6), you may have to run the following on your database before running migrations:

ALTER TABLE action_logs ENGINE = InnoDB
ALTER TABLE assets ENGINE = InnoDB

If you get a max key length error during migrations, you need to run the above commands.
