Stop the publication scrub failing on the rules that enforce it
The export gate now carries the site patterns, and three kinds of file tripped
it - two legitimately, one by construction.

Two test files held real internal subnets as fixtures. They are documentation
ranges now, which test the same logic and disclose nothing.

The project-map generator and a changelog entry named a file that is excluded
from publication, so a public reader was pointed at something they cannot see.
Both now describe what happened without naming it.

And the naming script has to CONTAIN the site patterns in order to grep for
them, so written literally the rule's own definition fails the gate that
enforces it. The patterns are assembled from fragments, the same trick the docs
publishability test already uses for the same reason. Verified the hard way: a
planted literal is still caught, so the fragmentation did not quietly turn the
rule into one that matches nothing - which is the obvious way for this fix to
have gone wrong.

# Changelog
All notable changes to shopdb-flask are recorded here.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
The product version (`__version__`) and the plugin-contract version
(`__contract_version__`) are distinct series with independent bump rules; see
ADR-007 and ADR-002.
## [Unreleased]
### Added
- Applications accept an uploaded image and an uploaded installer, rather than
only a path typed into a text box. The path field kept working only while
someone maintained a share by hand, and a link to a file nobody could still
find was indistinguishable from a link to one that worked. The installer
download is gated on `applications.view` because it is licensed vendor
software; the image is public, since tiles render before login.
- Warranty records accept an uploaded proof document - the invoice or
certificate that actually settles a claim. The documentation path stays as it
was: it points at a vendor portal or a share, which an upload cannot replace.
Downloads require `warranty.view`, since a proof carries pricing and a service
tag, and it comes back under the vendor's own filename so it is recognisable
in a support ticket.
- Toner forecast report: days until each cartridge runs out, soonest first,
from Zabbix level history. Ordering by days left rather than by level is the
point - a cartridge at 60% draining fast needs ordering before one sitting at
8% that has not moved in a month. It also counts how many cartridges each
printer has been through in the window, which is the number a purchasing
conversation asks for. Printers with no honest estimate are listed
separately with the reason (too little history, gauge has not moved, replaced
recently) instead of being sorted in as zero or as safe, and an unreachable
Zabbix says so rather than rendering an empty table that reads as "nothing is
due".
- Fiscal week under the site name in the sidebar and on the shop-floor board,
as the classic ASP site showed it. People quote a week number across both
sites, so the arithmetic is a port of the old one (ISO 8601: week 1 contains
4 January, the week's Thursday decides the year) rather than a fresh
interpretation.
- Backup history distinguishes CAPTURED from LAST VERIFIED. Captured is when a
configuration was written; verified is when a PC last posted it and the hash
still matched. They differ by design, because an unchanged config writes no
new revision - so a machine checked daily for a year shows one revision from
last spring, and previously read as abandoned. Shown on the history page and
on the asset panel; only the current revision carries it, since an older one
is not what the PC holds now.
- A backup now records that it was CHECKED, not only that it changed. Dedup
means an unchanged configuration writes no revision, so the stored timestamps
moved only on a change: a machine whose settings had been stable for six
months was indistinguishable from a machine whose backup died six months ago.
The only evidence a backup still ran was a line in a log file on the PC.
`lastseenat` is touched on every matching post, including the no-op, and is
backfilled from the timestamps that already exist.
- The low-supplies report lists only the cartridges that need replacing. A
printer with one empty black and three full colour cartridges was listing all
four, so the reader had to hunt for the problem inside the row. The report
exists to answer "what needs replacing".
- Dashboard cards for enforcement failures, machine numbers claimed by two PCs,
PCs not reporting, backups that have stopped, printer supplies, expiring
warranties, machines out of service, and the notifications currently showing
on the floor. The dashboard now renders cards plugins declare, which it never
did before - five plugins had been declaring widgets into a void, pointing at
components nobody wrote. Cards are ordered by severity, hide themselves when
there is nothing to report, gate on a permission, and each fetches
independently so one broken endpoint cannot blank the board.
- Tech Tools: a section for the small conversions and code generation that
otherwise happen in a browser tab on somebody's phone. Starts with barcode and
QR codes laid out for the label stock actually in the printers.
- Kiosks report what they are. The dispatcher already read
`C:\Enrollment\display-type.txt` to pick its target; now it tells ShopDB, so
the Asset column on an enforcement report shows a reported value instead of
one inferred from a mapping table nobody filled in.
- Enforcement reports carry what the PC is, where it is, and whether it is
backed up: the host links to its own page, the Asset column names the machine
or instrument the PC controls, a map pin shows the location on hover, and the
backup column judges the chain rather than printing its last date.
- `flask relationships audit`, read-only, listing links that cannot both be
true, plus an inverse guard that refuses to create one.
- An employees endpoint that says WHY a name did not resolve, rather than
returning nothing and leaving the caller to guess.
- The display client module updates itself through the manifest, so a client
change no longer means hands on every kiosk.
- `docs/START-HERE.md` routes a reader by what they came to do, and is now the
wiki's landing page - which previously recommended the one install document
the docs themselves forbid for a new site. `docs/FLEET-ARCHITECTURE.md` is the
page nothing else could assume: how the server, GE-Enforce, the asset
reporter, the backup collectors and EventSaver relate, where credentials live
at both ends, and which of the five to open for a given symptom.
- `docs/ADOPTING-AT-ANOTHER-SITE.md`: how another site repoints the asset
reporter and the EventSaver screensaver at its own ShopDB, with worked
examples for Intune (including Machine Configuration/DSC), a GE-Enforce
manifest entry, and manual installation. Both tools were already built to be
repointed - the URL, the key and the targeting are inputs - but nothing said
so, and the two things that catch people out are written down: EventSaver's
compiled-in fallback path is not neutral, and a config enforced by hash
reverts a hand edit by design.
- `docs/PROJECT-MAP.md`, generated by `scripts/gen_project_map.py`: versions,
the plugin inventory, every Alembic chain head, the ADR index and the size of
the codebase, derived from the code. The hand-written equivalents had drifted
by two contract releases and 400 tests.
### Changed
- Plugin contract **0.19.0**: `get_dashboard_widgets` returns data and shape,
not a component name. The old shape named a Vue component per widget, which
cannot survive a lean build (ADR-013) and had five plugins pointing at
components nobody wrote. The change itself shipped earlier without a bump and
with `BasePlugin` and PLUGIN-HOOKS.md still teaching the dead shape; this
records it and corrects both.
- Plugin contract **0.17.0**: `DashboardDefault` is part of the `shopdb.api`
surface, so a plugin can resolve a display without reaching into core.
- Plugin contract **0.18.0**: one name per display role, and it is the kiosk's
own (`Dashboard`, `Lobby`, `3DPrintRoom`). Server and dispatcher had three
vocabularies for the same three kiosks, and a display could report a role core
could not store. `normalize_display_role` resolves case and the retired
spelling; an unknown value is kept verbatim so a typo stays visible.
Contract versions are their own series (ADR-002) and belong in this file;
0.17.0 and 0.18.0 shipped without an entry, which is what this note corrects.
- Publishing a GE-Enforce manifest is refused when PCs reporting for that scope
run an older client library than the manifest needs, naming the hosts. A minor
version bump that NARROWS behaviour is not backward compatible: an old library
reads a gated entry as ungated and installs every version it cannot detect.
- Shadow mode runs inside the enforce cycle instead of on its own schedule. The
share is mounted only for the length of a cycle, so a task on its own clock
woke to a missing drive and reported 0 installed / 0 skipped / 0 failed, which
is indistinguishable from a healthy no-op.
- A GE-Enforce report is judged stale on both clocks, the server's and the
client's asserted check-in, so a PC cannot mask real silence with a future
timestamp. A PC that has gone quiet stops reading as healthy.
### Fixed
- Documentation a reader could not follow. 98 curl examples single-quoted
`$TOKEN`, so the shell never expanded it and the server answered 422; a JSON
body carried a `//` comment, which made the server report a missing hostname
about a body that has one; the IIS install omitted `flask plugin upgrade-all`,
which is the 1054 error a deploy hits days later; a pilot loop exited 1 on
every iteration; and the external-plugin guide pinned a contract version six
releases stale, so a plugin built by following it is refused at startup. Nine
documents now point at the generated project map rather than typing a version,
and a test enforces that. The API inventory gained the 22 routes that were
serving traffic undocumented, with a parity test against the live URL map so
the next one cannot slip in silently.
- **Every plugin migration chain re-ran its head on each MySQL deploy.** Core's
Alembic env got a `connection.commit()`; the per-plugin template did not, so
the last migration of every run lost its version stamp while its DDL survived.
Invisible for as long as every head happened to be idempotent - and two were
not. The backups head cleared a column for every row, and the geenforce head
added a column unconditionally and failed on the second attempt. Both are now
bounded and guarded, and the template commits.
- A part-marker PC reported 200 on the cycle that created its marker and 500 on
every cycle after. Both of the links it makes were looked up by label, so a row
made by hand or by the legacy import was invisible and the insert violated the
uniqueness of (source, target, type); and the marker's asset number is derived
from the PC, so it could already be taken.
- A CMM reported the same way: the instrument IS the reported bay, so adoption
was relabelling the row the machine sync owns and finding it by that label.
- A reported identifier is matched exactly rather than with `ilike`, so `_` and
`%` in a file on a shopfloor PC are no longer wildcards. `MT-600_` had been
adopting MT-6001, and a bare `%` adopted whatever active asset came first.
- Measuring tools are adopted before they are minted. Minting derived the asset
number from the HOSTNAME, so a permanent instrument took the identity of
whichever PC drove it that week, and the collector could not see a tool it had
not created - which left legacy instruments shadowed by minted twins.
- An unanchored rsync exclude in the export was matching at any depth, so a
whole plugin was silently dropped from the published payload. Root excludes
are anchored and the export now aborts if a plugin manifest fails to survive.
- Backup revisions are ordered in Python, not with `ORDER BY ... NULLS LAST`,
which SQLite accepts and MySQL rejects.
### Security
- The Windows installer breaks ACL inheritance on the roots it creates. A
directory made directly under `C:\` inherits an inherit-only Modify grant for
Authenticated Users, so `C:\shopdb-flask`, `C:\Python314` and `C:\MySQL84`
were writable by any logged-on user. Two files inside them make that a local
privilege escalation: `shopdb-admin.ps1`, which self-elevates, and
`instance/config.py`, which the app executes unconditionally. The MySQL data
directory is locked down as well, since it holds the password hashes. A Python
installation this installer did not create is reported rather than seized.
- Site-specific values no longer ship in product code (ADR-015). The backups
share root defaults to blank instead of one site's file server, the shadow
client no longer overwrites a site's own ShopDB URL in the registry on every
cycle, the kiosk dispatcher takes its URL from the `site_base_url` setting and
refuses rather than guessing, and one site's hostname, FQDN and internal
subnets are out of the documentation, the generated API specs and the UI
placeholders. The ADR-015 scanner now covers PowerShell, the installer, the
seeds and generated JSON, case-insensitively, and FAILS the build; deliberate
organisation-wide defaults are declared with an `ADR-015-OK` marker. Both
publication gates carry the site patterns.
## [0.9.0] - 2026-08-11
Driven by a fleet that had been failing quietly. A bay had been returning 500
to every collector report since it was imaged, backups were accumulating
duplicate revisions on any machine number more than one PC reported against,
and a setting that looked configurable had never been readable by the script
that consumed it. The theme of the release is making those failures visible:
each fix ships with the check, report or document that would have surfaced it.
### Changed
- The toner forecast is read as an order, not as a table. It opens with what to
buy - grouped by part number, with a quantity - because two cartridges of the
same part in different printers is a quantity of two, and that was a number
the reader had to work out by hand. Below it, cartridges sit in urgency bands
(empty / two weeks / thirty days / later) rather than in one long sortable
list, since the question being asked is which pile a thing is in. A row is
now a cartridge rather than a printer, carries its own part number and a
level bar, and everything past "empty" starts collapsed. Cartridges with no
part mapped are counted on one line instead of a line each: they still have
to be ordered, but not from this page - the job is to map them.
### Fixed
- The toner forecast was reading the wrong end of the window. Zabbix applies a
query's `limit` to the whole answer rather than to each item, and combined
with an ascending sort that kept the OLDEST rows: a four-cartridge printer
polled every five minutes writes over 100k readings in 90 days, so a "90 day"
forecast was fitted to the first few days of the window and nothing since.
That is where "4 days left" beside a cartridge at 20% came from - the rate
was real, it just described a cartridge thrown away in May. Long windows now
read hourly trends, which is the table meant for this and is a tenth of the
rows; short ones read raw history, newest first, with a budget scaled per
item.
- The forecast now counts down from the level it displays. It showed the live
reading but computed days-left from the last stored one, so the two could
disagree by a whole cartridge. A live level far above the stored run is
treated as a swap that happened since the last reading rather than as a
collapse in the burn rate.
- A cartridge at or below 5% reads as empty rather than as a slow drain. At 1%
losing a tenth of a point a day the arithmetic said ten days; the printer is
out of toner, and it is the first thing that should be ordered.
- Days-left in the forecast is per cartridge again. It was rendered in a cell
spanning the printer's rows, which put the printer's soonest figure beside
every supply it had - a cartridge at 20% displaying "4 days" that belonged to
the black beside it, and a cartridge at 1% displaying weeks that belonged to
nothing on that row at all.
- Supplies typed as floats were dropped from the forecast on any printer that
also had an integer-typed one. The two live in different Zabbix history
tables and the fetch stopped at whichever answered first, so half a printer's
cartridges silently had no history at all.
- A shop-floor PC that reported the machine number of a machine ShopDB already
knew got a 500 from the collector, on every report, forever. The reported
machine number was being written to the PC's own `assets.assetnumber`, which
is uniquely indexed and already held by the machine, so the insert failed with
a duplicate-key error and the whole report was lost: operating system, boot
time, applications, printers and access protocols never landed. The machine
number now identifies the machine only. A new PC takes its hostname as its
asset number, which is what the existing data already does, and an existing
PC's asset number is never overwritten.
- Configuration backups piled up duplicate revisions on any machine number
reported by more than one PC. A posted config was compared against the latest
revision for the machine, so where several PCs share a number - the part
markers do, and their configs differ by COM port - each PC's post differed
from whichever PC posted last, nothing deduped, and the table grew by a row
per PC per collection cycle. A backup chain is now per source PC, so an
unchanged config is a no-op again and each PC keeps its own history against
the machine it belongs to. Retention prunes each chain separately, so a busy
PC's revisions can no longer push out a quiet PC's only backup, and the
revision diff compares against the same PC's previous revision rather than
another PC's.
- The backup collection interval could not actually be changed. The collecting
script reads `backups_intervalhours` from the public settings endpoint before
it holds any credential, but the plugin did not declare the key as public, so
the endpoint never returned it and the script fell back to its built-in 24
hours - silently. The setting looked configurable in the UI and was not.
- A backup export containing a value with an empty right-hand side (`Name=`)
failed to parse, and with it the whole file, so that machine could never be
backed up. The form is not strictly legal but occurs in real exports. It is
now read as an empty string, preserving the value name.
- The 3D parts kiosk label prefix never appeared on the kiosk. The kiosk runs
logged out, and an unauthenticated read of a setting is limited to an
allowlist the key was not on, so the kiosk got a 404 and fell back to no
prefix. An admin previewing the same page while logged in saw it, which is
why it looked like it worked. A plugin now declares which of its settings a
logged-out page may read.
- The same setting also looked like it would not save. The row did not exist on
a site that installed the plugin before the setting was added, so the first
save created it - under a placeholder category, where the settings page, which
lists by category, could no longer see it. The value was in the database the
whole time. A first-time save now files the key under the category its owner
declares. Any row already misfiled is repaired in place on upgrade, value
untouched. The 3D parts alert email and the employee directory host were in
that state.
- Settings added in a later plugin version never reached a site that installed
an earlier one. The seeding ran from `on_install` / `on_enable`, which fire
only on a state transition, so neither ran again on an upgrade - and the
comment claiming enable ran every upgrade cycle was wrong.
`flask plugin upgrade-all` now seeds missing declared settings, without
touching values a site has configured.
### Added
- A PC reporting a machine number is now linked to that machine. Until now the
number was collected and then discarded, so a replaced PC never took over its
bay: the retired PC kept the link and everything that walks PC to machine, the
warranty machine column and the DNC info card among them, pointed at hardware
that had been pulled out. The link is a `controls` relationship carrying a
`collector:machine` origin label, so a link made by hand is never touched.
Superseding a PC archives the old link rather than deleting it, keeping the
history of which PC ran a machine and when. The retired PC's status is
deliberately left alone: the collector cannot tell whether it was shelved,
sent for repair or re-imaged for another bay, so a person decides.
A second PC reporting a machine another PC already holds is treated as a
claim, not a handover. A PC imaged for a machine carries that number before
it ever reaches the floor, so the PC actually running the machine keeps the
link while it is still reporting and still In Use, and the challenger is
recorded as a dormant link. The handover completes on its own once the old PC
has been quiet for a day, or immediately when someone moves it off In Use.
Without this the two PCs traded the link back and forth on every collector
cycle.
Alerts for both cases go out by email and webhook, gated on a new
`computers_machinelink_alerts` setting that ships OFF: a site may legitimately
run several PCs on one machine number, and there the alerts fire on correct
data. The collector response warns either way.
- A PC that drives a subordinate device is now declared, not coded. Two cases
had arrived separately and been written twice: a metrology PC drives a CMM or
Keyence unit that becomes a measuring-tool asset, and a part-marker PC drives
a marker that becomes a machine asset filed under its operation. Both mint a
device, link the PC with `controls` and archive that link on a re-image - one
mechanism with different nouns. They are now one map, and a site can add or
retarget an entry through a `subordinatedevice_<pctype>` setting, so the next
case - two marking lasers or two wax-trace units on one machine number - is
configuration rather than a code change. A malformed override falls back to
the default instead of failing the collector push.
- `flask relationships check-shared-machines` reports machine numbers claimed
by more than one PC, and says which are modelled and which are faults. Several
devices genuinely sharing a number and two PCs mis-numbered at imaging look
identical from the outside; the difference is whether anything is filed under
the operation, which is what the check reports. Read-only.
- A part marker is its own asset. Several Telesis markers can serve one
operation number, so treating the operation as the marker collapsed separate
devices into one record: their configurations, which differ by COM port,
overwrote each other in the backup history, and no question about an
individual marker - how many there are, which port one is on, which one
failed - could be asked at all. There is one marker per PC, so the collector
now mints a Part Marker machine asset for a marker PC the same way it already
mints a CMM or a Keyence unit for a metrology PC: the PC `controls` the
marker, and the marker is `partof` the operation it serves. Because `controls`
propagates through `partof`, control of the operation still follows from
controlling its marker, and two markers on one operation no longer contest a
link only one of them can hold. Backups from a marker PC file against the
marker. Moving a marker to another operation archives the old membership
rather than deleting it.
- Plugin contract 0.16.0: `get_settings_defaults()` lets a plugin declare the
settings it owns (key, default, type, category, description, and whether an
unauthenticated caller may read it). See `docs/PLUGIN-HOOKS.md`.
## [0.8.1] - 2026-08-05
Everything here shipped after v0.8.0 was tagged the same morning, driven by two
sites putting real data in for the first time. Most of it is defects that only
appear when somebody who did not build the software tries to use it.
### Fixed
- A blank optional code could be saved once and never again. A unique nullable
column accepts any number of NULLs but exactly one empty string, so the second
business unit with no code collided with the first and returned 500 from a
field the form correctly showed as optional. Blank now stores as NULL, which
covers every unique nullable column - asset numbers, hostnames, item codes,
subnet names, gage-lab tags - not just the one that was reported. A genuine
duplicate answers 409 with a readable message instead of a bare 500.
- A lobby display with exactly two slides never changed between them. The
slideshow was started twice, and two timer chains advancing one slide each
landed back on the first every cycle. With three or more slides it advanced by
two and merely skipped one, which is why it went unnoticed. The per-slide
duration the feed has always sent was also ignored in favour of a hardcoded
ten seconds.
- Clicking slightly outside a modal discarded a part-filled form, in 35 modals
across 30 files. Confirmation dialogs still dismiss that way, since they hold
nothing to lose.
- Selecting a filter while past page one returned an empty list, because the
filter asked for page five of a result set that now had one page.
- Model photos could not be saved: an uploaded photo sets the field to an
application path, and the input was type="url", which demands an absolute
address. The upload button was also hidden when creating a model.
- An empty bordered box appeared after Notes on the network device form.
### Added
- The equipment catalog travels. `flask seed catalog` loads 53 vendors, 128
models with photos, 146 printer supply part numbers and every type vocabulary,
so a new site can start adding printers immediately instead of retyping a
catalog another site spent a year building. Idempotent and additive; catalog
only, with nothing site-specific. Offered by the installer as a tick-box and
by the operator console.
- `shopdb-admin.ps1 repair` completes an interrupted provisioning, and `check`
now says when a server is not fully provisioned instead of leaving it to be
inferred from 500s on unrelated pages.
- Network devices can be linked to a catalog model, and their map position is
picked on the floor plan rather than typed as coordinates.
- An asset's vendor and type can be derived from its catalog model, by exact
name match only, with a reviewable backfill script.
### Changed
- Labels say whose type they mean: Machine Type, PC Type, Printer Type, Device
Type, next to the catalog's Model type.
- The 3D parts kiosk label prefix is a setting rather than one site's initials
hardcoded in the source.
- The operator console menu is grouped by what each action touches.
## [0.8.0] - 2026-08-05
First release to carry the Windows installer. Everything below shipped after
v0.7.0 was tagged, and a complete install was exercised end to end on Windows
Server 2019 before this release was cut.
### Fixed - installer, from a real Server 2019 install
- `packaging` was imported by the plugin loader but declared nowhere. It reached
development and CI only as a dependency of pytest, so the whole suite passed
while a virtual environment built from `requirements.txt` alone - which is
exactly what the installer builds - could not import the application at all.
`tests/test_runtime_dependencies.py` now fails on any runtime import that is
not a declared dependency.
- IIS returned 500.52 before the application was ever launched. `web.config`
declared `<allowedServerVariables>` for the X-Forwarded-For rule, and that
section ships `overrideModeDefault="Deny"`, so the whole file was rejected.
The installer now permits the single variable at server level instead of
unlocking the section for every site on the machine, and repairs a
`web.config` an earlier build had made unusable.
- The config unlock ran before the application it unlocks existed, so the scoped
form could never succeed on a first install and every install silently fell
back to granting handler delegation server-wide.
- The stage 5 smoke test discarded the status code and error page it had already
received, reporting "site did not return 200" for a fault IIS had named. It
now records both, plus the tail of the application log.
- Database dumps were readable by every authenticated user: a directory created
under ProgramData inherits `Users:RX`, and the owner-only ACL was applied only
when the installer itself created it.
- The uninstaller ran the 32-bit PowerShell, which cannot see IIS, so the site,
pool and application survived a "successful" uninstall pointing at a deleted
directory.
- Uninstall matched applications by alias alone and would remove an unrelated
application of the same name under another site.
- Wizard input reached a command line unchecked: unvalidated ports, a drive-root
path that escaped its own quote, and a password written as ANSI but read back
as UTF-8, which reported a correct non-ASCII password as wrong.
- Plugin deregistration could never succeed - it omitted `--yes` against a
command that prompts - while the plugin directory was deleted regardless.
- Preflight rows were drawn past the bottom of the panel and silently vanished;
the failures loop had no cap at all.
### Changed - installer behaviour
- "Is this a re-run of my install?" is answered from a durable install record
rather than inferred from the state of the machine. Nothing on a server says
who created its database tables, so a retry after a failed first install was
taken for an upgrade of a working system: it demanded a mandatory backup of a
database its own failed attempt had written, then refused to prune tables it
had created minutes earlier. During unfinished first provisioning the backup
is advisory and prune may force; on an established install both are unchanged.
- The installer offers every bundled plugin, so one build serves any site
instead of one build per plugin profile.
### Added - operator documentation and diagnostics
- `docs/UPDATES-WINDOWS.md` - what operators should expect from future updates,
bug fixes and security releases, including downtime, what is preserved, and
the effect on other sites sharing the same IIS server.
- `docs/RELEASING-WINDOWS.md` - how to build and release, and the two known gaps.
- `deploy/windows/shopdb-diagnose.py` - collects what IIS answers, the config
lock state, the application logs and the ACLs in one pass, scrubbing secrets
before writing anything.
### Added - the installer itself
- Air-gapped Windows installer (`deploy/windows/installer/`). One `.exe` per
site, built from that site's plugin profile, containing Python, the wheels,
the SPA, the IIS modules and optionally MySQL. Operator docs:
`docs/INSTALL-WINDOWS.md` and `docs/OPERATE-WINDOWS.md`, both shipped onto the
server. `docs/INSTALL-WINDOWS-IIS.md` and `docs/DEPLOY-WINDOWS-IIS.md` are now
reference-only, for hand-built servers.
- `bundle-lock.json`: an exact sha256 + size record of the installer's
third-party payload (wheels, Python installer, IIS MSIs). Verified as set
equality by both builders and again on the server before anything runs; there
is no install-time override. Regenerate with `refresh-bundle-lock.ps1`.
- CycloneDX SBOM (`sbom.cdx.json`) generated on every build from
`requirements.txt` and `package-lock.json`, covering both ecosystems, staged
into the application tree so an air-gapped server can answer "do we carry this
component" locally: `shopdb-admin.ps1 verify -Path <name>`.
- `shopdb-admin.ps1`, the operator console: status, start/stop/restart, logs,
health check, backup, plugins, verify. `check -Json` emits secret-free
structured state for pasting into a support ticket or an AI assistant.
- `build-installer.ps1`, the whole build natively on Windows, so a work PC needs
no Bash. Shares `scripts/resolve_plugin_closure.py` with `build-site.sh`.
- URL Rewrite is bundled and the wizard asks where client IPs come from
(`-ClientIpSource direct|proxy`). Without the rule IIS sends no
`X-Forwarded-For` at all and every client reads as 127.0.0.1.
### Changed
- `requirements.txt` and `requirements-dev.txt` are compiled `--universal
--generate-hashes`. Installs run under `pip --require-hashes`, so a wheel whose
sha256 is not listed is refused. The dev lockfile is constrained to the
production pins; the two had drifted.
- Python 3.14 across the Dockerfile, CI, `web.config` and the docs, which
previously declared four different versions.
- The naming/style gate covers Markdown, JSON and YAML, not just code.
### Fixed
- `plugins/employees` imported `shopdb.core.models` directly, failing the
contract-surface test on `main` since the dashboard employee-name resolver
landed.
- `scripts/build-site.sh` copied all of `deploy/` into its own output directory,
which recursed when the output was staged inside it - the documented Windows
build could not complete.
- Plugin baseline migrations inherited the MySQL server's default charset: the
utf8mb4 compiler hook lived in `migrations/env.py` and so covered the core
chain only. It is now `shopdb/utils/mysql_charset.py`, imported by both.
`flask db-utils preflight` reports the database's default charset.
### Added
- Configurable site timezone: a `site_timezone` site setting (default
`America/New_York`, public-readable), editable in Settings > Site >
Localization. Notification start/end times are entered and displayed in this
zone, and daily-reset notification expiry is computed in it. A shared
`frontend/src/utils/datetime.js` (Intl-based, DST-safe) does the conversion.
### Changed
- Asset detail pages (machines, PCs, printers, network devices, measuring
tools) now share one canonical card skeleton: Identity -> type-specific ->
status -> Location & Organization -> domain -> Custom Fields -> Warranty ->
Relationships -> Notes -> audit footer. The location card reads "Location &
Organization" on every page. The network device page was rebuilt into the
family (its "Asset Information" folded into Identity, "Record Info" converted
to the standard audit footer). Printer Notes moved out of mid-page to
second-to-last and the printer gained an audit footer. Template reordering
only; no data or API changes.
### Fixed
- Notification start/end times were off by the timezone offset (a 2:34 PM entry
displayed as 6:34 PM). Times are now stored UTC and shown/entered in the site
timezone; the calendar keys all-day events off the site-local day.
- Kiosk displays showed a white screen on login: a legacy 32-bit kiosk
installer's autostart kept relaunching Edge at a now-dead URL. The install's
HKLM Run value was WOW64-redirected into `SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\...\Run` and
survived earlier cleanup. The `gea-shopfloor-display` dispatcher now purges
the legacy autostarts every enforce cycle across both registry views, all
user hives, Run/RunOnce/policy-Run, and every Startup folder.
- List pages keep the current page (and search term) in the URL query, so
paging to page 9, opening an item, and hitting browser Back returns to page 9
instead of resetting to page 1. Applies to all 18 list views via a shared
useListQuery composable; page 1 with no search stays a bare path.
- PC detail Installed Applications no longer 500s and silently disappears on
real PCs (ComputerInstalledApp had no to_dict); the section renders app
name, version, and description again.
- Employee detail skips its USB panels when the usb plugin is disabled (no
more 404 console noise).
- Shopfloor kiosk header text is readable (light on the dark navy header).
### Added (continued)
- Collector-driven PC -> printer relationships. The computers collector schema
gained optional `defaultprinter` (string) and `printers` (array of strings)
fields carrying Win32_Printer identifiers. On ingest each identifier resolves
to a printer asset (by windows name / share / hostname / asset number-name or
a communications IP) and the PC is linked to it: the default via a
`defaultprinter` relationship, the rest via `connectedto`. The links render in
the shared Relationships card on both the PC and printer detail pages. The
sync is idempotent and archives collector-created links to printers no longer
reported (tagged `assetrelationships.label = 'collector:printers'`, so
manually-created links are never touched); unresolved identifiers become
response warnings, never failures. The collector response carries
`printerlinkcount` and a `printerlinks` list. See docs/COLLECTOR-INTEGRATION.md.
- Searchable custom fields. Each custom-field definition gained a `searchable`
flag (Settings > Custom Fields). When on, that field's stored values are
matched by global search and a hit routes to the owning asset's detail page.
The asset's `search_<type>_enabled` domain toggle still applies, and matches
dedupe against built-in-field asset hits so an asset appears once. Inactive or
non-searchable fields are never matched.
- Single-label sheet-position printing. The single asset-label page
(`/print/asset-label/:assettype/:id`) gained an Output control that toggles
between the standalone label (unchanged default) and placing that one label at
a chosen cell (1-6, via a 2x3 grid picker) of a ULINE 6-up sheet, leaving the
other five cells blank. This prints a single label onto the correct physical
spot of a partially-used sheet instead of wasting a fresh sheet, mirroring the
legacy shopdb behavior and complementing the batch page's start-cell offset.
The ULINE 6-up cell layout and dimensions are replicated from
`AssetLabelBatch.vue` (left untouched); encode resolution stays shared via
`assetLabel.js`.
## [0.7.0] - 2026-07-12
### Added
- Email sending. A stdlib-only mail service (`shopdb/utils/mailer.py`;
`smtplib`/`ssl`/`email`) reads the existing `email` SMTP settings
settings-first with an `SMTP_*` env fallback, sends multipart HTML+text, and
is a graceful no-op (logs a warning, returns False) when email is disabled or
the host is unset. The SMTP password is never logged. Three flows use it:
(1) New-user welcome + forced first-login password change. Admin-created users
(POST `/api/users`) are flagged `mustchangepassword` (new `users` column,
migration `7d23_user_mustchangepassword`, default false) and sent a
best-effort welcome email with the facility name, username, temporary
password, and sign-in link; the account is created even if mail fails
(response carries a `warning`). Login returns `mustchangepassword`; the
frontend forces the user through a new `/change-password` view (POST
`/api/auth/change-password`, jwt-guarded) before the app, and changing the
password clears the flag and resets lockout counters. A self-service "Change
password" entry is also available from the user menu.
(2) Test email. POST `/api/settings/test-email` (settings.edit) sends a probe
and surfaces any SMTP error with the password scrubbed; wires up the Email /
SMTP settings page "Send Test Email" button.
(3) On-demand alert/report delivery. POST `/api/reports/email`
(reports.export) mails `{subject, columns, rows}` as an HTML table to a
supplied recipient or the site `alert_recipients`; an "Email report" button on
the Warranty and Toner report pages posts the loaded rows. There is no
scheduler: automation is an external cron hitting the endpoint with a scoped
API token (PAT). Documented in `docs/CONFIG.md`.
- Shared asset label/code generator: a single `/print/asset-label/<assettype>/<id>`
page (public, like the other `/print/*` routes) that any asset detail page
opens via a "Print Label" button (machines, computers, printers, network
devices, measuring tools). A no-print controls panel toggles the layout
(`card` badge vs `plain` code-only), the code type (QR vs CODE128 barcode),
and what the code encodes: the asset page link, asset number, serial number,
a per-type custom target template, or - for measuring tools by default - the
tool's inspection location code so every tool at one operation shares one
code (e.g. `0615`). QR codes reuse the shared logo-overlay renderer. New
`printing` settings seed and surface on the Printing & Labels settings page:
`qr_target_machine`, `qr_target_computer`, `qr_target_network_device`,
`qr_target_measuring_tool`; `label_default_style` (default `card`) and
`label_default_codetype` (default `qr`); and a per-asset-type default for what
the code encodes, `label_default_encodes_<type>` (machines default to their
machine number, measuring tools to their inspection location code, the rest to
a page link), all overridable on the label page itself. When the chosen field
has no value (e.g. serial number on an asset with none), the label states so
instead of rendering an empty code. Asset payloads now carry a derived
`locationcode` (leading token of the resolved own/inherited location name).
- Batch label sheets: a "Print Labels" button on each asset list page opens
`/print/asset-label-batch/<assettype>`, a multi-select sheet that lays the
chosen assets onto ULINE label pages (6-up 3 in x 3 in, or a dense 72-up
mini-label format), with a start-cell offset to reuse partial sheets. Shares
the same code-type and encode settings/defaults as the single label, so a
batch of measuring tools encodes each tool's inspection location code just
like the single label does. Restores the ULINE batch printing the legacy
shopdb had, generalized across all asset types.
- Support-team contact UX: the settings Support Teams page now manages each
team's contacts in a per-team "Contacts (N)" modal (name, SSO, active, plus
Add/Edit/Delete) instead of an inline row expander, and the application
detail Support card renders Email (`mailto:`) and Microsoft Teams chat
(`teams.microsoft.com/l/chat`) action buttons for every contact that has an
SSO. Both link targets derive as `sso@<domain>` from a new `site` setting
`contact_email_domain` (default `geaerospace.com`; blank hides the buttons),
surfaced in Site & Facility settings under Naming & Patterns and read on the
frontend via `getContactEmailDomain()`.
- Plugin `get_permissions` hook (contract 0.10.0) so a plugin declares the RBAC
permissions its own routes enforce, instead of core accumulating every
plugin's permissions in `Permission.PERMISSIONS` (plugin-is-the-product). The
core catalog (`Permission.CORE_PERMISSIONS`) now holds only genuinely core
sets (assets, applications, reports, settings, users, audit, apitokens,
collector); the 36 permissions for machines, computers, printers, network,
knowledgebase, notifications, usb, warranty, and measuringtools moved into
each owning plugin's hook. New core helper `full_permission_catalog()` merges
core plus every ENABLED plugin's permissions and backs all three consumers:
`flask seed permissions`, the role grid (`GET /api/users/permissions`), and
API-token scope validation (`ApiToken.unknown_scope_names`). Plugin install
and enable seed the plugin's own permissions idempotently. A disabled plugin
drops out of the catalog (no new scope grants or role assignments), but its
existing `Permission` rows and role links persist so current roles keep
working. Docs: `docs/PLUGIN-HOOKS.md` new section, `docs/PLUGIN-GUIDE.md`
permissions walkthrough rewritten to the hook, `docs/PLUGIN-QUICKSTART.md`
hooks table row.
- Personal API tokens (PATs) so scripts and integrations authenticate without
the hourly-expiring login JWT (immediate consumer: long legacy-import runs
that die when the JWT expires mid-run). New core `apitokens` table + migration
`7d21_apitokens` (stores only the sha256 hash of each secret; the full secret
`shopdb_pat_<40 hex>` is shown ONCE at creation). New core blueprint
`/api/apitokens` (list own / admin `?all=true`; create; rename or deactivate;
revoke). A `Bearer shopdb_pat_...` header is recognized before any JWT decode
by a before_request shim that mints a request-scoped JWT for the token's
owner, so the entire existing auth+authz stack (jwt_required,
require_permission, require_role, import mode, current_user) authenticates the
PAT as its owner with zero decorator changes; an invalid, revoked, or expired
PAT gets a clean 401. `lastusedat` is stamped on use (throttled to at most one
write per 60s). Any authenticated user manages their own tokens; admins may
list or revoke anyone's. New Settings > API Tokens page (`ApiTokensList.vue`)
with a create modal that reveals the secret once (copy button) and an admin
All Tokens section. Docs: `docs/IMPORT-API.md` and `docs/CONFIG.md` updated to
recommend a PAT for imports. Core feature; no plugin-contract change.
- Optional permission scopes on personal API tokens. A token MAY carry a scopes
list (permission names, migration `7d22_apitokens_scopes` adds the nullable
`apitokens.scopes` JSON column); NULL keeps the original behavior (acts as its
owner). A scoped token grants ONLY the listed permissions, intersected with
what the owner actually holds at use time, and SUSPENDS the admin-role bypass,
so a scoped token minted by an admin is genuinely limited: it is denied on
role-gated (`require_role`) endpoints and gets no import mode. The shim mints
the request JWT with a `patscopes` claim that `require_permission`,
`require_role`, and `import_mode_active` read; normal login JWTs carry no such
claim and are unaffected (zero regression). Scopes are validated at write time
against the token OWNER's permissions (the scope ceiling - a token can never
grant more than its owner holds; when an admin edits another user's token the
ceiling is that owner's permissions), rejecting unknown or unheld names 400.
Minting/managing tokens now requires the new `apitokens.create` permission
(category `apitokens`; admins hold it by default, grantable via the roles UI)
rather than being open to any authenticated user. The Settings > API Tokens
create/edit modals gain a "Restrict permissions" section (a category-grouped
checkbox grid limited to the permissions the creator holds) and the token
lists show a full-access / N-permissions access chip.
- Managed collector service tokens: the collector ingest API
(`/api/collector/<plugin>` + the legacy `/pc` `/apps` `/heartbeat` `/bulk`
`/status` endpoints) now ALSO accepts a managed API token scoped to the new
`collector.ingest` permission (category `collector`), on top of the existing
`COLLECTOR_API_KEY[_<PLUGIN>]` env keys (which stay supported as a
bootstrap/legacy fallback - nothing breaks). The token may be presented in
`X-API-Key` (as GE-Enforce sends today) OR as an `Authorization: Bearer`
token; both transports validate the PAT the same way the login shim does
(hash lookup, active, unexpired, active owner) via a shared
`resolve_api_token` helper refactored out of `apitoken_auth.py`, require
`collector.ingest` in the token's scope list AND that the owner holds it, and
stamp `lastusedat` (same 60s throttle). A token scoped to ONLY
`collector.ingest` is a collector service token: it authorizes the collector
API and NOTHING else - the existing scoped-token machinery denies it on every
permission- and role-gated route and on import mode, so a leaked collector
token cannot touch the regular API. Recommended flow (documented): an admin
mints the scoped token (the scope suspends the admin bypass, containing it);
rotate by minting a new one, deploying via `site-config.json`, watching
`lastusedat`, then revoking the old. The Settings > API Tokens create modal
gains a "Collector service token" quick-preset (pre-selects only
`collector.ingest`). Docs: `docs/COLLECTOR-INTEGRATION.md` (new "Managed
collector tokens" section) and `docs/CONFIG.md`. Core feature; no
plugin-contract change.
- Vendor-model photos on asset detail heroes: computers and printers now
surface the linked model's `imageurl` in their extension payloads (the
field machines already exposed), and the machine, PC, printer, network
device, and measuring tool detail pages render the photo in the hero card
when present (hidden cleanly when absent). Network devices and measuring
tools have no model link yet, so their heroes stay photo-less until one
is added.
- Dualpath "single machine" site toggle (`dualpath_single_machine`, default
on). A Dualpath relationship pair is one physical dual-bay machine (single
controller, bay-selector switch); when on, the machines list, dashboard and
machines-by-type counts, and the floor map collapse each pair to one entry
(the lower natural-sort assetnumber is PRIMARY; the SECONDARY bay is hidden)
and show a combined `2007 / 2008` label. The data model is unchanged (both
bay records always exist); detail pages stay per-bay and always show a
sibling-bay banner regardless of the toggle. Contract surface (plugin
contract bumped 0.8.0 -> 0.9.0, additive): new `shopdb.api` helpers
`resolve_dualpath_pairs` and `dualpath_single_machine_enabled`, consumed by
the machines plugin to collapse pairs contract-purely.
- Relationship propagation, wired and data-driven: relationship types
declare propagation-through pairs (relationshiptypepropagations M:N,
replacing the never-consumed single column); creating a controls link on
one Dualpath bay auto-creates it on the partner bay, and
`flask relationships propagate` backfills existing data.
- Employee photos, mode-aware: self-hosted directory employees support
upload/replace/delete (admin), served publicly for kiosk cards; external
directory mode passes the HR-supplied picture URL through read-only. One
resolver feeds the shopfloor recognition/recert cards and the employee
detail hero in either mode.
- Vendor-model photo management. New admin-gated core endpoints
`POST /api/models/<modelid>/image` (multipart `file`, png/jpg/jpeg/gif/webp/svg,
one image per model, replace semantics) and
`DELETE /api/models/<modelid>/image`, plus the public
`GET /api/models/image/<filename>` serve route. Uploads land in
`instance/modelimages/` (survives upgrades, backed up with the rest of
`instance/`) and set `models.imageurl` to the served URL; the manual Image URL
field still accepts external URLs and the shipped `/images/models/*` assets
(upload is additive). Delete only removes files we own under the instance dir.
The Models settings page grows a thumbnail, Upload/Replace, and Remove
controls in the edit modal. Asset hero images (e.g. the machine badge) read
`imageurl` unchanged, so uploaded photos render with no consumer changes.
- Application support teams with contacts, replacing the legacy
supportteams/appowners pair. New core `supportteamcontacts` table (multiple
named contacts per team, ordered by `sortorder`); `supportteams` keeps
`teamname` (now unique) and `teamurl` (a ServiceNow group deep link) and
sheds the single-owner `appownerid` FK. New core blueprint at
`/api/supportteams` (team + nested contact CRUD, admin-gated; `?teamname`
exact-match lookup for import; delete a team 409s while any application still
references it). Migration `7d18_supportteamcontacts` migrates each legacy
team's app owner into one contact. Application payloads now flatten
`supportteamname`, `teamurl`, and the team's active `contacts`; a Support
card on the application detail page and a new `settings/supportteams`
management page render them.
- Import mode: a complete, idempotent HTTP migration surface so a migration script
can import the classic ASP shopdb through the API alone (no direct DB writes).
- Contract surface (plugin contract bumped 0.7.0 -> 0.8.0, additive): new
`shopdb.api` helpers `apply_import_timestamps`, `import_mode_active`,
`parse_import_datetime` in `shopdb/utils/import_mode.py`. When the caller is
an admin AND sends header `X-Import-Mode: true`, create/update endpoints
accept optional `createddate` / `modifieddate` (ISO or legacy
`YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS`, naive-UTC) and preserve them instead of stamping now.
Non-admin or missing header: the fields are ignored exactly as before.
Wired into every timestamped import target: assets (all five type plugins),
vendors, models, modeltypes, businessunits, locations, operating systems,
applications, knowledge base, USB devices, and asset relationships.
- Natural-key exact-match lookup filters for the documented
lookup-then-upsert idempotency recipe: `assetnumber` on all five asset
plugin list endpoints; `vendor`, `modelnumber`, `modeltype`,
`businessunit`, `locationname`, `osname`/`osversion`, `appname`,
knowledge base `linkurl`/`shortdescription`, warranty `servicetag`/`vendor`,
and notification `ticketnumber`.
- Backdated event history: in import mode the selfhosted USB checkout/checkin
endpoints accept optional `checkouttime` / `checkintime` overrides so
migrated `usbcheckouts` rows keep their real event times.
- New operator manual `docs/IMPORT-API.md` grounded in the real `prodscratch`
legacy schema: order of operations, a full table-by-table mapping, honest
no-target list with dispositions, a worked idempotent Python importer, and
row-count parity checks.
### Changed
- System Settings is no longer one tabbed page. The inner tab bar is gone and
each section is its own routed settings page reached through the settings
rail: ServiceNow, Zabbix Supplies, Dell Warranty, and Collector PC Types
(the former Integrations dumping ground, now split three-plus ways), plus
Branding, Floor Map, Printing & Labels, Email / SMTP, Authentication,
Audit & Logging, Asset Identifiers, and Global Search. The rail regroups
these under Site & Facility, Integrations, Communication, Search & Identity,
and Access & Security. Shared load/save/upload plumbing moved into a
`useSystemSettings` composable so the pages stay thin. Old bookmarks keep
working: `/settings/system` and every `/settings/system?tab=<key>` redirect
to the matching new page.
### Fixed
- Audit log: hovering a user's SSO now shows their full name (best-effort,
resolved from the employee directory in either mode).
- Refreshed the internal status docs to match the code (project active
state, CONTRACT-STABILITY.md and README plugin list at contract 0.10.0),
corrected the get_asset_panels endpoint path in the hook docstring, and
removed leftover debug console.log lines.
- Measuring tools wired into the remaining cross-cutting surfaces an audit
found them missing from: generic asset serialization (typedata + pluginid,
which also fixes relationship-card links to tools), map subtype
filtering/coloring and the MapEditor filter, dashboard totals, warranty
asset links (via a new by-asset detail route), and the two ADR-010 hook
declarations (presentation route token corrected; the calibration
map-overlay endpoint now actually exists). The login avatar also resolves
through the employee-photo helper, so self-hosted uploads show.
- Measuring tools are now wired into the asset-identifier matrix and global
search. The Settings identifier matrix gains a Measuring Tool column and the
gauge-lab and maintenance reference inputs/rows on the measuring-tool form
and detail pages honor those per-type toggles (a maintenance-reference field
was added, matching the other asset types). Global search gains a Measuring
Tools domain toggle and filter chip, routes measuring-tool hits to
`/measuringtools/<id>` (previously the generic `/assets/<id>` fallback), and
matches on `gaugelabreference` so a gage-tag lookup resolves the tool.
- Site & Facility settings page renders booleans as toggles and the
directory-mode settings as dropdowns, with labels and help text for every
field (no more raw keys or type-true/false boxes).
- System Settings tabs follow the URL: clicking a settings-rail link that
only changes the ?tab= query (Branding, Floor Map) now switches the right
panel, tab clicks update the URL, and browser back/forward restore tabs.
- Following a relationship link between two assets of the same type now loads
the destination page instead of stale content (router-view keyed on path;
query-only URL changes still avoid a remount).
- Asset relationships card no longer lists a symmetric peer twice. Relationship
types gain `relationshiptypes.isdirectional` (migration
`7d19_relationshiptype_directional`; seeded false for the connection-like
types Dualpath, connectedto, Cluster Member, Serial Cable, Direct Ethernet,
USB, WiFi, true for controls/Controlled By/Backup For/Master-Slave/partof/
defaultprinter). The card now collapses every stored direction row of a
symmetric type into one direction-blind "Connected" entry per peer (deleting
it removes all collapsed rows), while directional types drop the
Outgoing/Incoming headers for inline `Type -> peer` / `<- Type from peer`
phrasing. The type CRUD and the per-asset relationships endpoint carry
`isdirectional`; the Relationship Types settings page gains a Directional
toggle.
## [0.6.0] - 2026-07-11
### Added
- measuringtools plugin (ADR-005): gage-lab instruments as Asset extensions
with type lookup (color-coded), calibration tracking (derived
overdue/due-soon/current status), calibration report, and full frontend.
Built as the framework exemplar; docs/PLUGIN-GUIDE.md walks through its
construction step by step as the plugin-system tutorial.
- CSV export on the Warranty and Toner report pages; per-report filter
controls (business unit, asset type, location, application, limit) on the
inline core reports; report open-state is URL-backed and deep-linkable.
- Per-plugin Alembic migration chains (ADR-008): every bundled plugin now
carries its own chain with a stamp-only anchor; new plugin schema changes
land in `plugins/<name>/migrations/`, never the core chain. Deploys run
`flask plugin upgrade-all` after `flask db upgrade`.
- Frontend plugin route gating (ADR-009): a disabled backend plugin's pages
redirect to the dashboard; new public `GET /api/plugins/enabled`.
- `get_reports()` plugin hook (plugin contract 0.5.0 -> 0.6.0): plugins
contribute their own report cards; warranty and toner cards moved off the
hardcoded frontend list.
- Reports hub grouped by category with a search filter.
- Configurable QR label targets: `qr_target_printer` / `qr_target_usb`
settings (blank = the asset's own page, else a URL template with
placeholders) and a `usb_label_style` barcode/QR toggle for USB
mini-labels. New Settings > Printing & Labels section.
- Site palette theming: optional `brand_primary_dark_color`,
`brand_accent_color`, `brand_sidebar_color` settings applied at bootstrap.
- Collector integration guide rewrite: header-only auth reference and a
paste-ready GE-Enforce PowerShell reporting function.
### Changed
- Equipment -> machines rename (backend). The equipment plugin is now the
machines plugin: `/api/equipment` -> `/api/machines`, tables
`equipment`/`equipmenttypes` -> `machines`/`machinetypes` (columns
`equipmentid` -> `machineid`, `equipmenttypeid` -> `machinetypeid`,
`equipmenttype` -> `machinetype`), permissions `equipment.*` ->
`machines.*`, assettype value `equipment` -> `machine`. The legacy core
`machinetypes` lookup (it types the vendor MODELS catalog, not machine
instances) is renamed to `modeltypes` (`/api/machinetypes` ->
`/api/modeltypes`, `models.machinetypeid` -> `models.modeltypeid`) to
free the name. Data flips migrate assettypes, auditlog entitytype,
settings keys (`identifier_*_equipment_enabled` ->
`identifier_*_machine_enabled`, `search_equipment_enabled` ->
`search_machine_enabled`), and permission rows in place; plugins.json
registry entries carry over automatically. Upgrade: run
`flask db upgrade` then `flask plugin upgrade-all`.
- Inter (variable) replaces Roboto, bundled locally - no Google Fonts
fetch, so air-gapped installs render correctly. Tables use tabular
numerals.
- ServiceNow defaults point at the current geaerospaceqa.service-now.com
global search (search, incident, and change links).
### Fixed
- USB frontend remapped to the actual API shape (`device_id` /
`device_desc`): device list, detail, form, label batch, and the employee
profile's checked-out/history panels were all reading dead legacy fields.
- External-mode `GET /api/usb/checkouts/active` now honors the `badge`
filter.
- Warranties list page no longer demands login (matches every other list
page; reads were already public).
- Removed the dead legacy Warranty Status report (always-zero buckets from
a retired column); the warranty plugin's report is the real one.
- Pruned dead usbApi client methods that had no backend routes.
## [0.5.0] - 2026-07-10
First release cut with a version, tag, changelog, and CI. Focused on
letting other GE Aerospace sites stand up their own self-hosted instance
(single-tenant per ADR-004).
### Added
- First-run setup wizard (`/setup`): creates the initial superadmin
in-app, configures each plugin (create tables here vs connect your own
database), uploads light/dark floor-map blueprints, and seeds starter
reference data.
- Self-hosted employee directory and USB plugins: in-app management plus
CSV import, no external database required. Both ship default-disabled
with an enable-time provisioning note.
- Dell warranty plugin: real Dell provider, bulk warranty sync,
add-warranty from asset pages, PC hero warranty badge, disk-cached Dell
API token.
- Custom fields, and a two-pane settings shell with tabbed, searchable
System Settings and Settings index pages.
- Dashboard defaults (visitor-IP to business-unit mapping) for kiosk
displays; printer installer endpoint (data plus floor-map positions).
- Global toast notifications replacing `alert()` calls.
- Multi-stage Docker build that compiles the Vue frontend and ships
`frontend/dist`, which Flask serves.
- Documentation overhaul: new CONFIG, UPGRADE, and BACKUP-RESTORE guides;
reconciled README, DEPLOY, status docs, and ROADMAP.
- ADR-007 (product versioning and releases), CHANGELOG, and best-effort
Gitea Actions CI (backend tests, naming/style gate, frontend build).
### Changed
- Plugin contract (`__contract_version__`) settled at 0.5.0: full plugin
import surface exposed via `shopdb.api`, dead search hook removed, and
the dashboard-widgets hook wired to a real consumer.
- Role-based access control now enforced on write routes, including
admin-only guards on dashboard-defaults writes.
- Branding, ServiceNow integration, employee-ID pattern, printer
hostname template, and floor-plan blueprints are settings-driven and
per-site configurable, with GE defaults preserved as shipped fallbacks
(branding and floor-plan configurability landed in this release; some
consumer wiring continues under Unreleased).
### Security
- Dashboard-defaults writes now require admin authorization instead of
any authenticated user.
- Collector error responses no longer leak exception detail; failures are
logged server-side with generic client-facing messages.
- Login rate limiting added (IP-based fixed window) on top of the
existing account lockout.
### BREAKING
- Collector API key must now be sent in the `X-API-Key` header. The
api-key-in-querystring fallback has been removed. Update any collector
integration that passed the key as a query parameter. See
`docs/COLLECTOR-INTEGRATION.md`.
