The hover mini-map said "This asset has a position (2835, 1410) but no level"
for every asset in the product. When 0.11.0 gave LocationMapTooltip a levelid
prop, NONE of its seven call sites were taught to pass one - printer, machine and
PC detail pages, the toner report, enforcement reports, the warranty chip and the
dashboard cards - so the component correctly reported a missing level and the
preview never drew. Two payloads behind those views also emitted mapx/mapy with
no level: the toner report and the enforcement report.
The map PDF export had the ORIGINAL bug still in it: it plotted every filtered
asset onto the sheet, so exporting the ground floor printed second-floor markers
on it. Worse than on screen, because nobody can correct a sheet once it has been
printed and carried onto the floor. It now exports only the level being viewed.
The legacy import loader sent mapleft/maptop with no level at three call sites.
That loader is the one still to run against production, and every marker it
created would have been undrawable. It now resolves the site's default level -
the legacy schema predates levels and has one floor plan, so that is what its
coordinates mean.
THE GATE MISSED ALL OF THIS because it asked whether a FILE mentions 'levelid',
not whether each position does: one module emitted 'mapx' six times and 'levelid'
once and passed. It now checks per occurrence, covers scripts/ as well as shopdb/
and plugins/, and fails any Vue file that binds tooltip coordinates without
:levelid. Both new rules were confirmed to fail the build against planted
violations before being relied on.
Printer QR labels: the asset number is no longer printed. A label now reads name
(8201-HPLaserJetPro), QR, FQDN, then IP. The name falls back to the assetnumber
because that is where sites actually keep it - every printer here has an empty
name field, so preferring the Windows queue name alone would have printed a blank
line on every label.
The map was one picture of one floor. A second floor was added, the blueprint
changed size, and machines moved, so a position now records WHICH DRAWING its
coordinates belong to.
Buildings and levels (ADR-017). Each level owns its blueprint per theme and its
own native pixel size; assets.mapx/mapy are pixels of assets.levelid, not of the
site. A position whose level is unknown renders "level unknown" and is never
drawn on the default level, because a marker on the wrong floor plan looks
entirely correct while pointing at the wrong place.
Repositioning in bulk: filter by unplaced, needs-review or level, search, place,
confirm. Landmark recalibration solves the transform PER AXIS from landmark
pairs and never from image dimensions - the canvas grew taller without
rescaling, so a dimension-derived scale would stretch Y by 1.57 and be wrong
everywhere. It defaults to a dry run, reports what would land off the drawing,
snapshots before applying, and clears mapverifiedat because a transform is a
guess awaiting review. Snapshots restore, including the level and the review
state, and a restore snapshots first so an undo is undoable.
Search: gaugelabreference was matched only for measuring tools and
maintenancereference was matched nowhere at all, for any asset type, while
Settings happily offers both identifiers on machines and PCs. A tag an operator
is told to record has to be findable or it is a write-only field. USB devices
and printed items were unreachable from search entirely - neither is an asset,
so the generic asset search could not see them and no searcher existed; they
now match on serial, asset tag, label, bin code and gage-lab tag, honouring
isactive, with Settings toggles and result labels to match.
The retired-application rule was half a rule: GET /api/knowledgebase hid
articles whose topic application is retired while global search still returned
them and printed the retired application as the subject. A filter is only real
if every path that reaches the row applies it.
Contract to 0.20.0 (additive): Asset gained levelid and mapverifiedat, Location
gained levelid, and resolve_asset_position returns the levelid belonging to
whichever source supplied the coordinates. The five plugins that write a map
position are re-pinned. The install-list text format gained levelid as a NINTH
field, appended, because the shipped Pascal installer reads fields 0-7 by index.
That installer still compiles in one drawing's dimensions and bundles one
blueprint, so its map is accurate for the default level only; /api/maplevels is
deliberately unauthenticated so it can read both at runtime once rebuilt.
Recorded in PRINTER-INSTALLER.md section 6 along with the other known gaps.
Migration 7d33 converts an existing single-map site into one building and one
default level carrying the old map_* settings, then assigns every placed asset
and location to it. Nothing moves on screen. Old settings rows are kept so a
rollback still finds them. Verified end to end on MySQL 5.6 from a
production-shaped database.
routes.gen.js spreads `.toplevel` for every plugin uniformly, but only a
few own full-screen routes, so Rollup warned on eleven of them every
build. The `|| []` guard was always doing its job - the warning was noise,
and noise in a build log is where a real warning goes to hide.
--bg-card is deliberately translucent in dark mode (rgba(0,0,61,0.4)) so cards
glass over the page; --bg-card-solid exists for the things that must not. Two
hand-rolled modal panels used the former, leaving the notification-type and
access-protocol editors transparent over the overlay with the table legible
through them. The shared .modal in style.css already got this right.
Also writes down the page-vs-modal rule the codebase already follows, since
nothing stated it: a record with a detail page gets a routed form page, a lookup
row that only exists inside its list gets a modal over that list. Plus the modal
rules from the overlay-close fix - data entry never closes on a stray click,
confirmations may, and panels are painted solid.
Operators reported losing a part-filled form by clicking slightly outside it.
Every data-entry modal closed on a backdrop click with no warning and no way
back - the worst possible response to a misplaced click, and it happens most to
someone adding their first records at a new site.
Close-on-overlay is removed from 35 modals across 30 files: anything containing
an input, textarea, select or v-model. They still close by Cancel or the X.
Confirmation dialogs keep it, because a delete prompt holds nothing to lose and
dismissing one by clicking away is the behaviour people expect. VendorsList
shows the distinction - its edit form no longer closes that way, its delete
confirmation still does.
The shared Modal component now defaults closeOnOverlay to FALSE. Every current
caller holds a form, a checkout, a stock adjustment or a map position being
picked, and not one passed the prop, so all of them had the same fault. A modal
that genuinely wants dismissing that way opts in explicitly.
Also regroups the operator console menu, which had grown to numbers 1-9 plus
three letters bolted on with no order to them. Actions are now grouped by what
they touch, keyed by their first letter, and the old numbers still work so
nobody who has used it for months is stopped by a rearrangement.
The menu also warns when the server is not fully provisioned and names the key
that fixes it, instead of reporting it as ordinary status lines that read as
normal unless you already knew what to look for. That check is cached for the
session because it shells out to flask twice and the answer does not change
while somebody reads the screen.
Two fields on the same page were both labelled "Type": the asset's own, and the
catalog model's. Only one of them was vague. "Model type" already says exactly
what it is; the bare "Type" did not say whose.
So the unqualified one is the one that changes. No new vocabulary, and "Model
type" reads correctly against it:
Type -> Machine Type (machines)
Type -> PC Type (computers)
Type -> Printer Type (printers)
Type -> Device Type (network devices)
Left alone everywhere the word is not ambiguous - measuring tools, subnets,
VLANs, notifications, supply types and the manifest editor have no model type on
screen to be confused with.
This is a labelling change only. It does not address the blank type column on
machines imported from the classic ASP database, which is a data gap the
backfill script fills; renaming a column heading was never going to put values
in it.
Adding a "Model type" row next to "Type" put two rows in the Hardware section
that read identically. They come from different tables - modeltypes is the
catalog-wide list spanning every kind of asset, machinetypes is machine-only -
but the names line up in practice: all 262 machines in the development database
match exactly, which is the same fact that makes the type backfill safe.
So the row now appears only when the two disagree, which is the case worth
seeing: a model catalogued as one thing fitted to an asset recorded as another.
When they agree it says nothing and is hidden. Applied to machines, PCs,
printers and network devices, each compared against its own type table.
An asset that carries a model but no vendor was showing a blank the database
could already answer: the model records its vendor, and both sides reference the
same vendors table. Machines, PCs, printers and network devices now fall back to
it.
The fallback is FLAGGED, not merged silently. to_dict sets vendorfrommodel and
the detail pages render "(from model)" beside the value, because the record
itself is still empty: the edit form shows an empty vendor box, and a page
implying the vendor is stored would be lying about where it came from.
The model's type is exposed under its own name, modeltypename, and shown as a
separate "Model type" row. It is deliberately NOT used to fill in the asset's
own type. modeltypes is the catalog-wide list covering every kind of asset - it
holds "Access Point", "Camera" and "Desktop PC" alongside the machine entries -
so it is a different taxonomy from machinetypes. Only about two thirds of the
names overlap, and mapping one onto the other would mistype the remainder, with
the failure mode being a machine labelled "Desktop PC".
scripts/backfill_vendor_from_model.py writes the derived vendor down for real,
since the display fallback leaves reports that read vendorid still seeing
nothing. It is a dry run unless given --commit, fills only rows where the
asset's vendor is NULL and the model names one, and never overwrites a vendor
somebody chose. It skips a table lacking either column, so it runs against a
server whose network migration has not been applied yet.
Verified against the development database by nulling one machine's vendor inside
a transaction: it was detected as fillable, restored to exactly its original
value, and the rollback left the row untouched.
FLASK_ENV is not forced by the script. The app already reads it from .env, and
overriding it demanded a SECRET_KEY the environment had no reason to supply.
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.
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.
