Rebuilds the classic printer-installer feature: pick printers on the shopfloor
map, download a .bat that installs them.
Backend (asset_routes.py): GET /api/printers/install-batch?printerids=1,2,3
returns a .bat attachment. Groups printers the way the classic installprinter.asp
did - HP/Xerox via the universal PrinterInstaller.exe /PRINTER="a,b,c", printers
with a .exe installpath via that installer /SILENT, and anything else (no
installpath, or a .zip) listed for manual install instead of being run blindly.
Download URLs derive from the site_base_url setting + the IIS-served /installers
folder (no hardcoded host). Reuses the existing install-list query shape.
Frontend: PrinterInstallerMap.vue - full-screen Leaflet shopfloor map (reuses
mapConfig), a marker per network printer at its mapx/mapy, click to toggle-select,
sidebar with the selection + an Install button that downloads the batch. Toplevel
route /printer-installer, printersApi.installList(), and an Installer Map button
on the printers list.
Tests: install-batch grouping (universal/specific/manual) + requires-ids.
The location option label read l.location, but the Location.to_dict() field is
locationname, so every option rendered blank - the dropdown looked empty and
"massive" (a long list of blank rows). Fixed across all five affected forms:
printers, computers, network devices, network device form, and the subnets
location filter. Other .location uses (printer-driver URL, search-result label,
report bylocation key) are legitimately different fields, left alone.
Also require a model on the printer form: asterisk + required attr, plus a JS
guard in savePrinter (the native required is skipped while the select is
disabled with no vendor picked) that points the user at the vendor first.
Poll Zabbix for toner levels on a schedule and email/webhook on a downward
crossing. Warning fires at or below the warning threshold (default 5%),
critical at the critical threshold (default 0%); both thresholds are settings.
State lives in printersupplyalerts so an alert fires once per crossing and
re-arms after a refill.
Recipients mirror the printedparts pattern: plugin-scoped shopdb users +
roles + free-text emails (falling back to the site alert_recipients), and a
chosen support team's webhook (falling back to the site alert_webhook_url).
- PrinterSupplyAlert model + migration printers0002supplyalerts
- alerttier(remaining, warning, critical) + check_supplies poller
- flask printers check-toner-alerts CLI (run via scheduled task/cron)
- printers alert settings + Low-Toner Alerts settings page
- 7 tests: tier boundaries, once-per-crossing + re-arm, toner-only scope,
custom thresholds, support-team webhook routing
Model image URLs are root-relative (/api/models/image/...), so on an /ops
subpath deploy the raw <img src> resolved to the server root and 404'd. Wrap
every model-image src in withBase(): machine/printer/PC/network detail heroes,
the models settings preview, and the machine-badge / asset-label print pages.
withBase leaves external http(s)/data URLs untouched.
core.js still routed plugin-owned pages directly. Extracted all 11 into the
owning plugin's route file + moved their views into plugins/<name>/frontend/:
- computers: reports/pc-relationships, settings/pctypemapping
- printers: reports/toner, settings/printertypes, settings/zabbix (toner/supply
monitoring)
- machines: settings/machinetypes
- network: settings/networktypes
- warranty: settings/dellwarranty
- slides: settings/slides (its route file gains a default export; it was
toplevel-only)
- employees: NEW plugin frontend (employees/:sso + settings/employeedirectory) -
employees had no route file before; its pages lived only in core.js.
core.js now holds only core routes; all 14 bundled plugins are self-contained
under plugins/<name>/frontend/. Verified live: the extracted Machine Types
settings page renders in the settings rail from the machines plugin frontend.
Build + 58 vitest + naming green.
Relocate warranty, measuringtools, network, printers, usb, notifications,
computers, and slides into plugins/<name>/frontend/. Each plugin's views are
pulled from wherever they lived (own dir, plus the shared views/settings/,
views/reports/, views/print/ dirs, and top-level views) into the plugin's
frontend/views/, and its route file becomes the self-contained routes.js.
Handled the messy cases:
- computers: name mismatch (its views live in views/pcs/) - moved by following
the route file's own imports, so the dir name did not matter. Its OS/access-
protocol/PC-type settings views move with it (only computers.js routed them).
- network: NetworkHub's sibling sub-views (NetworkDevicesList, SubnetsBrowse,
not directly routed) moved too so its `./` imports resolve.
- printers: the qrLogo helper is SHARED with core AssetLabel, so it stays in
views/print/ and PrinterQR imports it via @/views/print/qrLogo.
- slides: route file is toplevel-only (TVDashboard); SlideManager stays core
(core.js routes /settings/slides).
frontend/src/views/ now holds only core views; frontend/src/router/routes/ holds
only core.js. All 13 plugins are self-contained under plugins/<name>/frontend/.
Verified live: Network (hub + moved sub-views), Computers (name mismatch),
GE-Enforce (helper), printedparts all render from their staged frontends. Build +
58 vitest + naming green.
