Once again thank you. You explained it more in depth that other tutorial videos. Others just say "Here is the install, brief overview and your good" You actually went and said this is how I do it and organize. Which painted a better picture thank you.
I was literally just looking for an option like this. That said I'd love to be able to just have something like a barcode scanner to just scan something directly into inventory based on the barcode.
I have the same thought, something that I can get a bunch of QR codes setup, and then just scan into the database when I slap them on things (buckets, PC parts, tools, etc) Going to have to try and word out a request that makes sense and submit it to them lol
I think even if it wasn't a pull request, it looks like it's an api based front end (they reference swagger in the env vars) you could write a client that say ran on a phone that allowed you to do that scanning and inventory adding. I suppose one addition to the actual project could be automated barcode/qr code generation based on a text field/item reference. One thing i'd like and again it's probably best as a standalone client probably on a phone is support for NFC, scan an NFC tag representing some racking or a bay of racking and bam, get a full inventory listing of stuff in that bay.
Couple of things to note: - docker-compose is now deprecated - it used to be a separate plugin, but now it is built in as a docker subcommand - docker compose (note the [SPACE]) - If you use a bind mount ( ./ or any other host path rather than homebox-data ), you can safely remove the volume section (starting at volume: ) at the bottom - that section asks docker to create the volume, but if it isn't used, it simply acts as system entropy.
Indeed, I do use the newer "docker compose" command now as well. Good to know on the volume section at the bottom. I didn't realize that, so thank you for educating me on that.
Have you worked with both SnipeIT & Homebox? Which do you prefer? I'm in the process of switching to one of those 2 from my previous method of home inventory but still not 100% sure which one to commit to.
It`s a pretty good software, im use it to manege my client`s network stuff VLAN`s locations, ISP`s, switches, routers, subnets. Fast, reliable and easy to use.
Okay, now I only need a house with a garage, which will cost me about $150,000, but I'm already moving towards the goal of zero unemployment benefits. ^^
Much appreciation for what you do buddy. Video suggestion is there any tool for inputing customer data in lets say an excel file or some file of sorts and get invoices. Would love to see that.
I’m at min. 3.50ish. If you think this program is an easy (for those without a PhD in computer science) then you obviously live in a different universe from me !
I'm sure "easy" is objective. Compared to other applications I've setup, it's fairly easy, but you do need to know docker, docker compose, and some basic networking for sure.
Hi there! Enjoy your videos a ton! Would you by any chance be maintaining an organised list of all the open source tools that you recommend or available on a blog or something?
Absolutely. Most (like 99%) of my videos have Show Notes in the description. They are all on the same site, ready for you to take a look at. wiki.opensourceisawesome.com. Hope it helps.
Okay, I did go through it a bit but was wondering if you had it as a concise categorised list somewhere? You know productivity, utility, containers, etc.. I understand you have tested multiple softwares in each domain.. maybe set up a rating system for your viewers as well or give your own rating for your viewers' reference. Whichever works.. I dunno if this is a big ask but I think it'll help your viewers a lot.
Ok, had to go back and look, but if you click to see an items details, you'll see a 3-segment button at the top that says, Details | Maintenance | Edit. Click the Edit option, then there is a little toggle switch below that for 'Advanced View'. Toggle it to on, then scroll down, and you can add Attachments. I was able to drag and drop 2 photos with no issue, and looks like you can have 5 or 6 attachments. The first attachment defaults to Warranty, but you can change it to 'Photo' easily.
Any videos on like Hudu Alternatives that is open source for home use documentation, that can achieve servers notes and firewall notes, server IP, passwords, domains you own, and etc.
@@AwesomeOpenSource Complaints management is about resolving individual complaints from customers or parents. Countries such as Australia making this progress part of the requirement to keep organisation registrations such as schools. Parent or a community member makes complaints via a form from the complaint management system and like a helpdesk, the complaint back and forward processed between departments and finally resolved. Keeping record of this process is mandatory for businesses. There are some complaint management system but they priced exorbitantly and no non-profit organisation and school can afford it.
I'm having one heck of a time with the proxy part of this video. I'm not a tech/IT guy by trade, but I'd say I'm not computer illiterate either. Can anyone recommend a video or channel that explains proxy setups in greater detail? I guess I really need to wrap my head around how they work, as copying this video step by step isn't working for my setup it seems.
I'm working on a self hosting for the absolute beginner series now. I hope tho have it out in a few weeks, but until then, I have a video called Putting It All Together, maybe that will help.
Thanks for this, very nice video. Also, do you have a video/tutorial on how to set things up so that you can access your home server using a domain like you did here? I'm still learning and have just setup a linux-based home server, installed some apps and they work great locally. The only way I know to access them from outside my home network is by using tailscale. I tried searching your videos but couldn't find any. Thank you
I do. I recommend these two videos. th-cam.com/video/cjJVmAI1Do4/w-d-xo.html will show you the basics of what I have setup now, and th-cam.com/video/TdEKVPWbC58/w-d-xo.html will show you how to get docker, docker-compose, and nginx-proxy-manager installed with no hassles.
2 ways. 1. change the code in your own fork. 2. Just make the request to the project on their github issues. I'm sure he's willing to listen to reason. I was wondering when someone was going to ask about that.
Nice open source app, and thank you for sharing as always. I am interested in the nginx reverse proxy and how you do all the setup with the domain registration and firewall. Are there any videos for this already.
Syncthing is on my list, but it's always been a bit unreliable and unstable for me in the past. I'll give it another go and see how it goes for a while though.
@Awesome Open Source yeap, i also had problems in the past, but now its working pretty well. Relays for community are a bit different ssrvice, but i thing its worth to host for supporting ;)
No. You can use it with dynammic IP, but if your IP changes very often, you'll be constantly updating your IP in your A record. I would say use something like DuckDNS to give you a tool that tracks and keeps your ip updated.
I understand the use of it in home but what about business? Like to search a file 🗃️ on particular shelf or books in library sort of? Is there any free open source inventory webapp like this to use in small pharmacy. No basic function would do ( add stock, -1 when selling ).
@@AwesomeOpenSource doesn't pos system needs scanner, card machine and all? Or i can just do the basic + or - item without these devices? like add 10 vicks balm in stock and minus it when a patient gets it?
Most POS systems are pretty flexible. The scanning, card reading is a nice add-on, but not usually necessary to help keep track of inventory going in / out. You can usually do the 'manual' route.

super glad it was helpful.
Thanks for your reply. I will look for an alternative program.
I was literally just looking for an option like this. That said I'd love to be able to just have something like a barcode scanner to just scan something directly into inventory based on the barcode.
Make a feature request. It’s early development, so a good time for requests.
I have the same thought, something that I can get a bunch of QR codes setup, and then just scan into the database when I slap them on things (buckets, PC parts, tools, etc)
Going to have to try and word out a request that makes sense and submit it to them lol
I've been playing around with another one called Snipe-IT. Check that out.
It's more geared to IT inventory management but highly customisable.
I think even if it wasn't a pull request, it looks like it's an api based front end (they reference swagger in the env vars) you could write a client that say ran on a phone that allowed you to do that scanning and inventory adding.

Thank you. These days i just blindly pick the software you are running and go ahead using it for things i need
I'm glad I'm providing good options. But know that there are always multiple options out there, so don't be afraid to "shop"around a bit.
Thanks for showing this Project, been using for a day its amazing
Glad you like it!
My first time watching one of your videos b/c I was looking for an asset management system. Great video. Great Flow. I subscribed. Keep it up.
Awesome, thank you!
I was about to mention SnipeIT which you just mentioned as I was listening you to... Look forward to your review/install.
Planned for the coming weeks my friend.

I love that you are already using it for your business.
Netbox is also powerful for this
Indeed it is.
This looks like a fantastic tool! Thanks for sharing
You bet!
This is such a cool project. Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Okay, now I only need a house with a garage, which will cost me about $150,000, but I'm already moving towards the goal of zero unemployment benefits. ^^
We all start somewhere. I was a police officer, and at one point lived in a 400 square foot apartment. I've slowly been working my way up.
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing. Cant wait to see the Snipe-IT video to cross check the best solution :-)
Definitely my pleasure. And, I think each solution will be great for various scenarios.
I'm in the market for a better asset management system. Looking forward to the review of Snipe-It!
Coming soon!
@@AwesomeOpenSource did you get that one done yet? crossing fingers
Much appreciation for what you do buddy. Video suggestion is there any tool for inputing customer data in lets say an excel file or some file of sorts and get invoices. Would love to see that.
I use Crater Invoive for making and tracking invoices and customer data. I have a video on using it.

Question. Didn't find an example of adding a photo of an item?
I didn't, but I haven't messed with it in a bit. I kind of put stuff in it, and let it be.

Hey can you show please how to install on windwos server? with IIS?
I would still use Docker over IIS for this application. Not familiar enough with IIS to give you any real help.
Nice open source app, and thank you for sharing as always.
I am interested in the nginx reverse proxy and how you do all the setup with the domain registration and firewall. Are there any videos for this already.
Sure. Start with this one. th-cam.com/video/cjJVmAI1Do4/w-d-xo.html. Let me know if it's helpful.
Hi. Thanks for sharing. I have a question. What is the panel where you get the Nginx Proxy Manager? Thanks
It's called Dashy. Here's a video I have on it. th-cam.com/video/QsQUzutGarA/w-d-xo.html
@AwesomeOpenSource any best open source software recommendation for leave management and employment profiling etc.
Let me see what I can find. I have found some on boarding open source software that looks really awesome, but not leave management yet.
@@AwesomeOpenSource thank you in advance.
Hi Brian, could you chek Part-Db too its not bad too many options, i tired partkeepr but no luck work with docker but part-db works very well

which software are you using for ssh like what kind of putty are u using in the video?
It's not putty, but the application is called Tabby. I have a video here: th-cam.com/video/-yfuYPowUDE/w-d-xo.html

Hey, how about to make a vid regarding syncthing relay server - how to host it, how to help community etc?;)
Syncthing is on my list, but it's always been a bit unreliable and unstable for me in the past. I'll give it another go and see how it goes for a while though.
@Awesome Open Source yeap, i also had problems in the past, but now its working pretty well. Relays for community are a bit different ssrvice, but i thing its worth to host for supporting ;)
This is very much like Snipeit
They do similar things for sure.
Do I need a static ip for configuring this Nginx Proxy Manager?
No. You can use it with dynammic IP, but if your IP changes very often, you'll be constantly updating your IP in your A record. I would say use something like DuckDNS to give you a tool that tracks and keeps your ip updated.
@@AwesomeOpenSource Okay will try. Thanks.
Decent tool to start with but it's missing signatures, depreciation etc
I don't know if Homebox is intended for more professional settings, but I plan to cover some others which might better fit you needs.
i need some help attachment doesnt work if i use domain
Hmmm, you mean if you upload a photo or something, it won't take if you access the site via a domain name?
@@AwesomeOpenSource btw yeah, took me 3 hour to setup 🥳
I understand the use of it in home but what about business? Like to search a file 🗃️ on particular shelf or books in library sort of?
Is there any free open source inventory webapp like this to use in small pharmacy. No basic function would do ( add stock, -1 when selling ).
