Sites seed inventory from the Asset Collector script or spreadsheet exports, but lookup names drift between sources (Dell vs Dell Inc.), which would otherwise create duplicate vendors/models/types on every import. The importer now normalizes and fuzzy-matches near-miss references onto existing lookup rows within an operator-set similarity threshold, auto-applying the match while reporting it for review so nothing merges silently. Operating systems and asset rows are never reconciled. Adds the dedicated Import Site Assets page with script/template download and a multi-file dry-run/commit workflow.
Assign printers to a MACHINE and let whichever PC controls it install them, with
the observed half kept strictly apart from the assigned half: a collector report
can never write an assignment row. Adoption is explicit. Adds a singular
relationship type so defaultprinter can mean exactly one, client scripts that
converge a bay's queues and correct a drifted one in place, and a wave gate so a
fleet-wide driver rollout cannot stampede its own share.
On the container side: the compose stack never persisted the instance directory,
so a rebuild discarded plugins.json and every upload. It is a volume now, the
image ships instance/ owned by the app user so the mountpoint is writable, and
the database moves to MySQL 8.4 LTS, which the Windows runbook has recommended
since 8.0 went end of life. The image also could not build at all: the frontend
stage never copied the plugin staging script it runs.
Adds a topology migration guide covering IIS to Docker and back.
The WJ import loader coerced MySQL bit(1) columns with bool(), which is
always true for the bytes pymysql returns; applications.isinstallable
and notifications.isshopfloor imported as 1 for every row. Route both
through the existing _truthy_bit helper. The loader also no longer
requires the employee source database: without it, notifications keep
the bare SSO and the verify stage skips the employee count.
Under a subpath mount, the session-expiry interceptor stored the
browser path (which includes the mount base) as the login redirect,
and the router applied its base again after login. Add stripBase()
and store base-free router paths; the login page also strips a stale
base from old bookmarked redirects.
Also point the external-plugin CI helper at the repo's GitHub URL.
