* Add Authorizable trait and interface to our user model so we have access to User::can/User::cant. We should take a look at where else our user model has diverged from Larvel since it was created...
* Policy cleanup/fixes.
This commit adds policies for the missing backend/"settings" areas. The
permissions were implemented a while back but the policies did not, so
authorizing actions was failing.
In addition, this condenses a lot of code in the policies into base
classes. Most of the files were identical except for table names, so we
move all of the checks into a base class and override the table name in
each policy.
* Use a better name and permission for the check in the default layout.
* Locations API support for image
* Added manufacturers API support for image
* Added manufacturers API support for image
* Added image support for locations add/update
* Added manufacturer image upload support to controller
* General image string
* Added blade support for image uploads/delete image
* Added $request support (from Input::)
* Added image support in API transformers
* Added image to Manufacturers presenter for data table
* Migration to create image fields
* Ignore the contents of the new image directories
* Create new image upload directories
* Created components/consumables uploads directory
* Fixed missing textSearch scope from companies
* Added ignore for companies uploads directory
* Added blade support for image upload
* Fixed path to upload directory on edit
* Added company image upport to transformers, controllers
* Added image support for categories
* Added support for images in Departments
* Added support for image in Consumables
* Added image support for components
* Ignore accesories uploads
* API: Allow searching accessories by supplier id
* Adds suppliers and image upload to accessories
* Allow sorting by counts for suppliers
* Validate supplier image uploads
* Remove purchase_date from protected accessory array, it was converting it to datetime in datepicker
This will limit the action_log records displayed when a user is viewing
their own assets and history since both target_type and target_id must
be set for a where condition to be added to the history query.
* Small UI Change
Changing Save button for Checkout button and adding Cancel button
* Small UI Change
Move buttons to match checkout page and remove extra save button
* Add laravel routes to javascript
This will clean up a lot of passing of urls. Adds a route() helper and
everything...
This commit also moves the customfield fetching to only be fetched once
and shared with each file, rather than once for each file.
* Try to fix travis unit test things.
* Downgrade doctrine/inflector for php5
* Attempt to occasional seeder issues on travis if the asset does not generate validatable data.
* Update sql dump for functional tests.
* Try to fix api tests.
* Fix old urls.
Still had some /admin/ urls floating around, which was causing bad
redirects in some instances. Should fix#4085
* The modal seems to be confusing license upload. be more explicit in the route we redirect to.
* Fix#4039. Use proper methods for location assets.
This also fixes a bunch of n+1 issues in the transformer. Also: curious
to know what Location::assets() does, because it doesn't do what I want
it to :)
* There is no notes field on accessories. Fixes Importer Test.
* Fix notification test. We should see a checkout not allowed exception when trying to check out to a location if the asset requires acceptance.
* Fix Custom field import.
Add a test for custom field import, and fix a few issues related to
importing custom fields. This will restore v3 functionality.
* Add UI support for mapping custom fields.
This still requires the field mappings to be created/assigned in
advance, but will fetch all custom field names and allow them to be
selected when setting up custom field mappings.
This commit also updates laravel-mix to v1.4.3 and other node
dependencies to fix some build issues.
* Fix some requestable asset page/assetloc issues. I'd love to know why laravel expections relationships to be in lower case... but thats a question for another day.
* Fix accidental commit of ImporterTest.
* Move the name() method to the presenter
This fixes some weird collisions between laravels voodoo and our
presenter voodoo that confused php. It's also probably a cleaner place
to put it. Should fix#3927
* Add missing parenthesis
* Add heading to tables on locations/view page.
* Fix some n+1 problems
* Use route in notification dropdown to make sure we link to correct page
* Work on better UI support for checkout to non-user. Fix links on index bootstrap table, work towards eliminating assignedUser
* Remove Asset::assigneduser() relationship. Instead add a checkedOutToUser() method and/or port to using assignedTo()
* Adjust string to fit new reality
* Fix#3780. Move the consumables getDataView method to the ApiController. Not entirely RESTful, but it's a weird method that probably doesn't need its own controller and the functionality would be strange to stack on the userscontroller...
* Fix file uploads to assets and restore the delete route.
* Add asset maintence edit action to index.
* Suppliers asset list should link to the related asset, not to the supplier with same ID.
* Asset models page should use polymorphic formatter on assigned to to better handle assorted item types.
* Comment out more assigneduser fallacy until we figure out the query builder approach to searching for location text.
Working mail from notification. Still requires testing/cleaning
Add tests around checkout notification.
This also removes the ability to check out an asset to a location|asset
that requires acceptance/a Eula. For 4.1 we may think about how to
support such a thing, but at present it seems to make sense to only alow
such assets to be checked out to users, who can be responsible for the
items.
The solve here was a few things - first, load jquery-ui before bootstrap. They have conflicting tooltips. Second, initiate the tooltips in the wenzhixin/bootstrap-table formatter using `data-tooltip=“true”`, and thirdly, add some JS that tells BS table to inititalize tooltips within the table using that `data-tooltip=“true”` business
* Move importer to an inline-template, allows for translations and easier passing of data from laravel to vue.
* Pull the modal out into a dedicated partial, move importer to views/importer.
* Add document of CSV->importer mappings. Reorganize some code.
Progress.
* Add header_row and first_row to imports table, and process upon uploading a file
* Use an expandable table row instead of a modal for import processing. This should allow for field mapping interaction easier.
* Fix import processing after moving method.
* Frontend importer mapping improvements.
Invert display so we show found columns and allow users to select an
importer field to map to. Also implement sample data based on first row
of csv.
* Update select2. Maintain selected items properly.
* Backend support for importing. Only works on the web importer currently. Definitely needs testing and polish.
* We no longer use vue-modal plugin.
* Add a column to track field mappings to the imports table.
* Cleanup/rename methods+refactor
* Save field mappings and import type when attempting an import, and repopulate these values when returning to the page.
* Update debugbar to fix a bug in the debugbar code.
* Fix asset tag detection.
Also rename findMatch to be a bit clearer as to what it does.
Remove logging to file of imports for http imports because
it eats an incredible amouint of memory.
This commit also moves imports out of the hardware namespace and into
their own webcontroller and route prefix, remove dead code from
AssetController as a result.
* Dynamically limit options for select2 based on import type selected, and group them by item type.
* Add user importer.
Still need to implement emailing of passwords to new users, and probably
test a bit more.
This also bumps the memory limit for web imports up as well, I need to
profile memory usage here before too long.
* Query the db to find user matches rather than search the array. Performance is much much better.
* Speed/memory improvements in importers.
Move to querying the db rather than maintaining an array for all
importers. Also only store the id of items when we import, rather than
the full model. It saves a decent amount of memory.
* Remove grouping of items in select2
With the values being set dynamically, the grouping is redundant. It
also caused a regression with automatically guessing/matching field
names. This is starting to get close.
* Remove debug line on every create.
* Switch migration to be text field instead of json field for compatibility with older mysql/mariadb
* Fix asset import regression matching email address.
* Rearrange travis order in attempt to fix null settings.
* Use auth::id instead of fetching it off the user. Fixes a null object reference during seeding.
* Improvemenets to unit tests.
* Break up modelfactory into multiple files, populate many states.
* Begin testing validation at the unit test level, test relationships.
* Add tests for Asset::availableForCheckout.
* Model factories now generate all needed relationships on demand,
which allows us to unit test with a empty database.
* To faciliate the empty database, we move to using sqlite in memory as
the unit testing database.
* Fix bug with logs of checkouts to non users.
* Fix location finding for assets. Also Fix location show page to show users associated with location. Still need some work to show assets.
* More test and generator improvements
* More unit test fixes. PermissionsTest is borked still.
* More Updates
* Rewrite permissionstest. Check that we have access on the model level rather than via web requests. Also test delete permissions.
* Fix seeders.
* Make the default asset model factory generate assets that are rtd for testing.
* Save progress.
* Rebase tests, fix department unit test, update database for functional tests.
* Update functional and api tests to use new modelfactory signatures.
This is round one of the rethink of checkout-to-everything. A location
now has a manager field, and the manager (by default) be responsible for
assets checked out to the location.
* Toggles the disabled state of auto_increment_prefix
To insert a prefix you had to toggle the checkbox, save the settings and reload. With this script it is immediate. Fixes#1390
* Delete asset image: made checkbox more visible
Related to #3153
* Added personal-access-token component
* Created basic API testing configuration
* First version of /components endpoind cest
* On-the-fly bearer token generation
* Completed testing of PATCH and PUT methods
* Added /components/{id}/assets route with tests
* Updated route and dataTable in view

* Begin work on vueifying the importer
* Beginning work on migrating the importer to use a vue/components for future interactivity
Update JS
More importer work. Move to a vue based modal, begin handling of processing. Still need to port error messages.
More importer work. Move to a vue based modal, begin handling of processing. Still need to port error messages.
Update importer. Add error display. Fix modal, update vue-strap to vue2
More progress. Add select2 vue bits.
* Move to querying the db to find importer matches. It scales better on large datasets.
Fix select2 related issues. We were trying to initialize it twice, which led to the custom data being overwritten.
* Better error handling on uploads and deletion of files. Restore progressbar on upload.
* Add support for generic exception reporting if app.debug is enabled.
* Handle Http 500 errors better. Display errors if debug is enabled. Assorted cleanups.
* Fix codacy issues, remove unused methods.
* Only bind vue to the importer for now.
* Load vue for passport as well.
* Major code simplification of the importers.
Move towards using Model::fill and Model::update rather than reinventing
the wheel. This makes the updating/creating logic a lot clearer, and
allows for the deletion of a lot of code. Also allows for supporting of
more fields in the future really easily.
* Cleanup constructors and use setters instead.
* Set the LC_MONETARY locale, and use it to strip currency symbols in Helper::parseFloat()
* Move licenseseat creation/deletion logic into an event handler on the model rather than the controller.
* Move the logging of parsed values to array_smart_fetch rather than writing it out everywhere
* Move to storing dates as carbon rather than strings. Allows for the parsing of more arbitrary strings from the importer
* Add a license importer with support for checking out to users or assets.
* Make a directory for sample/mock import csvs and populate it
* Adjust how we store/retrieve dates to fix some issues the tests found.
* Importer fix: we were trimming the wrong part of the classname when creating a category. This led to categories not being recognized.
* Add a component importer. Uses same fields as consumable importer. Only trick: If an asset_tag is present, we checkout a component to that asset on import
Enable component importer. Also calculate the importer classname in a cleaner fashion.
* Fix comparisons. find can return an index of 0, which is falsy.
* Update composer phpcs
* Minor Fixes found while working.
ALlow user_id to be nullable in category model validation
Point to the correct route in accessoriespresenter datatable. Also add name() method
Add a translated category name
Fix typo in translation
* Add a method to the asset presenter to show deployed when asset is deployed. Fixes#3114
* Set user if asset is checked out to user. fixes email problems.
* Use sometimes validation to ignore this when no values are present.
* Move Actionlog details to a presenter and port the activity table to use it. Still need to port other parts of the application, but this consolidates a lot of logic.
* Attempt test fix
* Port users,licenses, and assets view to use the presenter to generate table values.
* Reformat all view files. Check for matching tags and rearrange to make everything line up.
* Fix regression on asset create where the log was no longer saved.
* Move slack integration to laravel5.3 style notifications, part 1.
* Fix consumable tab when active.
* Move the slack notifiable to the settings model. Move all slack notifications into logCheckout/logCheckin. Should think about refactoring this as an event at some point still. Move Asset checkin/checkout to use the general loggable trait rather than it's own solution.
* Fix a logic error where assets with a non deployable status would show checkin instead of no button at all.
* Fix an html formatting error that resulted in us not closing a form. This would cause the checkin page to try to submit a delete request (related to the modal form) rather than the desired checkin request. Also fix formatting in this file.
* Fix maintenances create button, and post to the proper route in maintences edit
* Fix consumable tab when active.
* Fix an html formatting error that resulted in us not closing a form. This would cause the checkin page to try to submit a delete request (related to the modal form) rather than the desired checkin request. Also fix formatting in this file.
* Use log mail driver for testing, should fix the functional issue. Disable acceptance tests on travis for now.
* Fix Category edit page.
* EOL Can be null.
* Add presenters for models. Move bootstrap table JSON generation to these presenters, which cleans up controllers a lot. Move view specific modifications from the models to the presenters as well.
* Fix some issues found by travis and codacy
* Fix a few more issues found while testing.
* Attempt another acceptance test fix
* Try something else
* Maybe..
* Make delete routes work. We put a little form in the modal that spoofs the delete field.
* Fix route on creating a user.
* Fix redundant id parameter.
* Port acceptance tests to new urls.
* Initial work on migrating to model based policies instead of global gates. Will allow for much more detailed permissions bits in the future.
* This needs to stay for the dashboard checks.
* Add user states for permissions to build tests.
* Build up unit tests for gates/permissions. Move accessories/consumables/assets to policies instead of in authserviceprovider
* Migrate various locations to new syntax. Update test to be more specific
* Fix functional tests.
Add an artisan command for installing a settings setup on travis-ci
* Try a different id... Need to come up with a better way of passing the id for tests that need an existing one.
* Try to fix travis
* Update urls to use routes and not hardcode old paths. Also fix some migration errors found along the way.:
* Add a environment for travis functional tests.
* Adjust config file to make travis use it.
* Use redirect()->route instead of redirect()-to
* Dump all failures in the output directory if travis fails.
* Cleanups and minor fixes.
* Adjust the supplier modelfactory to comply with new validation restrictions.
* Some test fixes.
* Locales can be longer than 5 characters according to faker... fex gez_ET. Increase lenght in mysql and add a validation
* Update test database dump to latest migrations.
* Make delete routes work. We put a little form in the modal that spoofs the delete field.
* Fix route on creating a user.
* Fix redundant id parameter.
* Port acceptance tests to new urls.
* Make sure we set target_type when creating an accept asset log, and add a migration to fix older ones.
* On a declined log, we don't have an assigned user.
Guard against this conditional (which realistically should never be hit?)
Should fix#2940
* Fix codacy issues with migration.
* Consolidate edit form elements into reusable partials.
This is a large code change that doesn't do much immediately. It
refactors all of the various edit.blade.php files to reference
standardized partials, so that they all reference the same base html
layout. This has the side effect of moving everything to the new fancy
"required" indicators, and making things look consistent.
In addition, I've gone ahead and renamed a few database fields. We had
Assetmodel::modelno and Consumable::model_no, I've renamed both to
model_number. We had items using ::note and ::notes, I've standardized
on ::notes. Component used total_qty where consumables and accessories
used qty, so I've moved everything to qty (And fixed a few bugs in the
helper file in the process.
TODO includes looking at how/where to place the modal javascripts to
allow for on the fly creation from all places, rather than just the
asset page.
Rename assetmodel::modelno to model_number for clarity and consistency
Rename consumable::model_no to model_number for clarity and consistency
Rename assetmodel::note to notes for clarity and consistency
Port asset and assetmodel to new partials layout. Adapt all code to the renamed model_number and notes database changes. Fix some stying.
* Share a settings variable with all views.
* Allow editing the per_page setting. We showed the value, but we never showed it on the edit page..
* use snipeSettings in all views instead of the long ugly path.
* War on partials. Centralize all bootstrap table javascript
* Use model_number instead of modelno in importer
* Codacy fix.
* More unification/deduplication. Create an edit form template layout that we use as the base for all edit forms. This gives the same interface for editing everything and makes the edit.blade.* files much easier to read.
* Use a ViewComposer instead of sharing the variable directly. Fixes artisan optimize trying to hit the db--which ruins new installs
* Fix DB seeder.
* Base sql dump and csv's to import data from for tests.
* Start some functional tests for creating items.
* Add functional tests for all create methods. Still need to do tests for edits, deletes, and lots of other things
* Improvements to functional tests.
Use the built in DB seeding mechanism instead of doing it ourselves.
Break the tests into multiple units, rather than testing everything in
each function.
* Some improvements to acceptance tests.
Make sure we're only looking at the "trs" within the bootstrap table.
Creation of assets is now tested at the functional level (and is faster)
so ignore it here.
I'm testing acceptance tests with the
IMPORT_{ASSETS,ACCESSORIES,CONSUMABLES}.csv in the tests/_data folder
imported.
* A few things to make acceptance tests work. Add a name to the companies table, and make the locations table have the correct name
* Use a .env.tests file for testing functional and unit to allow a separate database.
* Add functional tests for compoents, groups, and licenses.
* Now that the config is in the functional.yml, this just confuses things.
* Start some functional tests for creating items.
* Add functional tests for all create methods. Still need to do tests for edits, deletes, and lots of other things

* update db dump
* Update tests to new reality
* env for the test setup
* only load the database at beginning of tests, not between each Functional test.
* Fix a miss from renaming note to notes.
* Set Termination date when creating an asset. It was only set on edit.
* Rename serial_number to serial in components for consistency.
* Update validation rules to match limits in database. Currently we just accepted the values and they were truncated when adding to DB.
* Much more detailed functional testing of creating items. This checks to make sure all values on form have been successfully persisted to database.
* Adds digital signature to asset acceptance
This is still a little broken - the history is displaying “Deleted user”, since there is no item type listed. Saving the item_type as App\Models\User tries to update accepted on the users table, which obviously doesn’t exist.
* Use asset facade for folks in subdirs
* Possible fix for weird accepted/declined display
* Display signature in modal popup if sigs are required
* Wrap that display file in auth middleware, just to be sure.
It shoudl fail if you’re not authorized since you’re not logged in, but better safe than sorry
* Fixed header section of layout
* Removed extra drop from migration rollback
This fixes a bug where the field was (correctly) disabled if the editing user isn’t a superadmin, but because the field was disabled, it would clear the permission groups.
* refactor to clean up LDAP login, and make the login method easier to handle.
* Login refactor cleanup
* Google 2FA package
* Adds Google Authenticator two-factor
* Removed unused blade
* Added optin setting in profile
* Removed dumb comments
* Made lock_passwords check more consistent
* Additional two factor strings
* Lock passwords check
* Display feature disabled text if in demo mode
* Two factor admin reset options
* Translation strings
* Early layout work on a cleaner permissions interface
* Cleanup layout. Make new permissions view work. Still needs some css and javascript improvements. Also need to do the same thing to the group view.
* Improve styling, add javascript to toggle an entire group of permissions if choosing the permission on the header row. Would be nice to add collapsing of sections in the future.
* Toggle viewing sections.
* Special case places where we only have one item in a group to only display the item once.
* Filter getCreate the same way.
* BugFix: Asset name was not included in custom report
* BugFix: Custom Asset Report did not escape commas in custom fields. So the csv file is inconsistent, if a custom field containes a comma. Added an escape function which escapes the commas with a backslash.
A csvreader can be configured to handle the escape character.
* commit temporal
* final translation commit -- added email translations
* final translation commit -- removed file for spanish translations
* final translation commit -- removed file for spanish translations
* added missing translations
* method overrided and config files back to default
* config files back to default
* config files back to default
* Create a new action_log table to replace asset_log. Use Polymorphism to generalize class and targets. Port everything I can find to use it. Add a migration to port the asset_logs table to action_logs.
* Initial work on requestable asset models
* Backend work for polymorphic requests table to store checkout requests.
* Add missing files
* Add a record to the db when requesting items. Build up a testing route for interfacing with this.
* Users can now toggle requests of items on the request page. Reformat page to use the same tab layout we use elsewhere
* Polymorphic request function. Implement requesting of asset models. Need to port mail/slack to notifications still.
* Implement requesting of asset models. Build up emails and notifications to support it. Allow specifying a quantity of model to request.
* Add view to show currently requested assets. Needs some work and cleanup, but it isn't accessible from anywhere yet.
* Save progress
* Create a new action_log table to replace asset_log. Use Polymorphism to generalize class and targets. Port everything I can find to use it. Add a migration to port the asset_logs table to action_logs.
* Allow accepted_id to be nullable.
* Comment out the thread_id migration, because it b0rks on a new database with the move. I'm unsure if the thread_id does anything...It doesn't seem to be used
* Clean up all old methods from Actionlog model. Port everything to use new cleaner interface.
* Port the actionlog factory to fix travis.
* Adjust code to work on php5. Also fix lurking adminlog call.
* Remove weird code
* Port the pave command. Also fix dangling adminlog
* Add support for updating assets to the importer.
If an asset with a matching asset tag is found, and the --update flag is
passed to the importer, we edit the matching asset with any
asset-specific values, and persist to the database. Any missing/blank
values are skipped.
TODO: Add to web interface, add support in consumables/accessories
* Allow deleting of files on the import page.
* Extend web interface to allow updating of imported items.
This adds a modal dialog to the import process. Currently the dialog
allows the choice of update vs ignore, and choosing the item type to
import (Accessory, Asset, Consumable).
Also use Helper::ParseFloat() for purchase_cost processing. It exists,
and fixes issues on my end at least.
* Implement editing of consumables and accessories.
* Rename getProcessImportFile to postProcessImportFile to reflect how it's now used
* Fix copy-pasta error.
* Add manufacturer to licenses. Shows in table and edit. Need to improve manufacturer view to show lists beyond assets still.
* Remove extra closing tags, formatting
* Work on making the manufacturer view show more options. Need to figure out how to change the table dynamically.
* Cleanup formatting and fix a few weirdities in hardware/view.blade.php
* Standardize on two-space tabs in this file, as it seems the most
* common.
* Fix a few places where we call number_format without guaranteeing the
* item is a number and not a string.
* Show a "No Results" message on components page if there are no
* components.
* Show table of licenses on manufacturer view page.
This reworks the ManufacturersController::getDataView method to delegate
the view to a sub method (currently assets or licenses, but plan to
extend to consumables/accessories/components as well). We then put tabs
at the top of the view to show multiple tables. This just duplicates
the table layout from licenses/index.blade, but I wonder if theres a way
to centralize that code, maybe through partials, over time..
The only known missing part of manufacturers for licenses would be adding it
to the importer, but the license importer should probably migrate to
object importer before doing too much more...
* Add manufacturer to accessory.
* Add consumables to the manufacturer view page.
This does two main things:
1) The importer now imports as numbers, not parsed strings. This allows
is to format values on output instead of input, which is what was
happening in most places.
2) Add a Helper::parseCurrencyString method and port everything to use
this. This checks to see if the value is numeric or empty, and returns
the appropriate value in all cases. Should fix all known occurances of
number_format expections.
* components.view should point to view, not create
* Fix comment
* Rename variable to accurately reflect its responsibility
* Fix line breaks in serial key, remove places where adding line breaks makes no sense. Fixes#2344
* Update tableexport.js to the new version.
* Give the export file in each table a useful name.
The name takes the form of tabletype-export-YYYY-MM-DD.extension.
* Quote item names when displaying in error table.
* Remove the danger class as well as the warning class when uploading a file. Fixes a display error if a file is successful after a file fails upload.
* Fix adding an image to an asset when public/uploads/assets does not exist.
First check to see if we can create directory and do so. If any errors occur, display the error string as an error on the page.
* Add the public/uploads/assets directory to new installs.
* Add some comments explaining this code so I remember what it does next time.
* Add model number column to the hardware list and allow searching based on model number. Column is hidden by default.
* Fix sorting. Add scope to order by model number.
A mistake in the sqlite porting led to "Please select an asset"
disappearing. This centralizes that code in Helper, and uses the code
in Licensescontroller and componentscontroller.
Also use the proper name on the components checkout page.
AssetMaintencesController reuses the same underlying code as
licensescontroller, but we don't want "Please select an asset" to be an
option there, so I'm not changing that code.
