snipe-it v4.6.16 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-05-06 // almost 5 years ago

  • 🆕 New in v4.6.16

    🔖 Version 4.6.16 of Snipe-IT introduces a few small features and includes a bugfix for users who are getting an empty Assets listing if they have a null EOL date set for some or all assets.

    🆕 New Audit Due / Audit Report Email Alerts and Web View

    ⏱ If you're already using the built-in scheduler, this will be included automatically. To run it manually, you would use php artisan snipeit:upcoming-audits.

    🍱 This adds two new sidenav items into the Assets menu that bring you to a report of assets that are due soon (using whatever your audit threshold is set to in Admin Settings > Notifications) and what is overdue.

    Upcoming/Overdue Audit API Endpoints

    Two new GET endpoints have been added, /api/v1/hardware/audit/due and /api/v1/hardware/audit/overdue.

    These actually use the main index Asset API controller, because there would have been a lot of copypasta otherwise, and that method is already a workhorse, but we wanted to provide a more semantic endpoint.

    ➕ Added:

    • 👍 Allow phone number to be changed in Edit Profile
    • ➕ Added #6204 - added email alerts and web/API access to assets due or overdue for audit

    🛠 Fixed:

    • 🛠 Fixed #6922 - date_add crashing if EOL is null
    • ✂ Remove “Imported from LDAP” note override
    • 🛠 Fixed #6911 - note must be a string on license checkin

    🚀 IMPORTANT: This will be one of the final releases of Snipe-IT that will work with PHP5. Future versions of Snipe-IT will require PHP 7.1.3 or greater. Please start upgrading your versions of PHP to 7.1.3 to prepare for the next major release. There may be a few small bug fix releases before Snipe-IT v5, but you should start preparing now.

    Known Issues

    👍 Snipe-IT v4.x is not compatible with PHP 7.3. You'll need to use a version of PHP between 5.6.4 and 7.2.x. This is due to a limitation of the underlying framework. The upcoming v5 will support 7.3+.

    🚀 Users running MariaDB 10.2.7 and later may have an issue upgrading or installing, due to a change in the way MariaDB stores null defaults. This issue will be fixed once the open pull request in the Doctrine repo is merged and a new version of Doctrine is released with these fixes. You can read more about that issue here.
