bio-inventory

Full-stack web application that employs Node.js/Express, Sequelize, and Handlebars to manage consumable inventory in a biomedical lab setting. Users maintian a library of item "specs", from which individual item "instances" can be created and updated as they are used and replenished.

Key Features:

  • Authenticated logins with multiple privilege levels.
  • Generation and scanning of QR codes for inventory items, so that physical items can be paired with their inventory entries.
  • Logging for all system changes, enabling easy tracking.
  • Flexible, hierarchical location models for easy tracking of items within a workspace.
  • Organization of vendor data.

App interface includes separate views for searching, viewing specs, and viewing individual inventory items.

Usage

Installation

This app requires Node.js, as well as a running instance of MySQL. To deploy, pull down the repo and provide login credentials for an authorized MySQL user in a .env file. Then, start the server with npm run start.

Customization

You must provide a value for WEB_TITLE in your .env file to properly set the navbar branding and page titles; choose a concise string appropriate for your organization. You must also add a logo.png file and favicon.ico file to the /public/images/ directory. Optionally, you may also change the primary UI color by providing hexadecimal strings (e.g. "#0099FF") for the BRANDING_PRIMARY and BRANDING_PRIMARY_HIGHLIGHT values in your .env file.

Deployed Example

A working, deployed version of the app can be viewed at https://portfolio.binderlab.io/bio-inventory. Follow the instructions on the login screen to access the guest account.
