by Erik Huelsmann 08 Sep '20

08 Sep '20

The LedgerSMB development team is happy to announce yet another new version of its open source ERP and accounting application.

Due to the high level of inconvenience of this bug, this release follows quickly on the release of 1.8.0. Due to a high level of development activity on the master branch and related backports, a number of additional fixes are also included.

LedgerSMB 1.8.0-beta3 released
by Erik Huelsmann 25 Jul '20

25 Jul '20

In preparation of the final release of LedgerSMB 1.8, the release branch has been created for a period of stabilization. To make available the latest fixes which also have been released as part of 1.7.18, we have updated the 1.8 beta release to 1.8.0-beta3. This will likely be the last beta release: we expect to start issuing release candidates soon. Users are encouraged to download the Docker images (tag: ledgersmb/ledgersmb:1.8) or the tarball ( https://download.ledgersmb.org/f/Beta%20Releases/1.8.0-beta3/ ) for evaluation purposes. Bugreports either in response to this mail or as GitHub issues are highly appreciated! The 1.8 release shifts away from HTTP Basic authentication, using encrypted cookies instead. This eliminates the popup authentication dialog on expired sessions. Additionally, does it provide a broader range of settings for outgoing e-mail and has support been added to upload logos and other files which can be used in downloadable documents. Please test LedgerSMB 1.8.0-beta3 with your use-cases (but not in production) and report any issues you're experiencing so they can be fixed before the final 1.8.0 release! -- Bye, Erik. http://efficito.com -- Hosted accounting and ERP.

[ATTN] Javascript build procedure changed on master
by Erik Huelsmann 21 Jun '20

21 Jun '20

Hi, Here's a heads-up for everybody who tracks the master branch. Last night we merged the "webpack" branch. This branch changes how our Javascript is being created. To convert to the new method, please run these commands in the root of your working directory: $ rm -rf ./UI/js-src/{dojo,dijit,util} $ make dojo Or, if you run your development in a docker container: $ rm -rf ./UI/js-src/{dojo,dijit,util} $ docker exec -ti <container_name> make dojo The procedure to build our Javascript has switched from using Dojo Toolkit's "util" package to using "webpack" for the building process. The process has been extended to implement quality controls for javascript, html, css and markdown to the generation process. All in all should this switch allow us to integrate better with Javascript front-end development as it's done today. Not unimportant: we'll be able to leverage React or Vue to build our front-end! -- Bye, Erik. http://efficito.com -- Hosted accounting and ERP. Robust and Flexible. No vendor lock-in.

This release contains the following fixes and improvements: Changelog for 1.7.15 * Fix tax on invoice differs from search results (#4651) * Fix COGS for purchased-in-arrears parts (#4658) * Update Dojo to 1.15.3 IMPORTANT The COGS fix addresses a bug which results in incorrect accounting in case inventory is used and parts are sold before they are purchased. This problem doesn't impact services or GL-only accounting. While this fix addresses the core problem, it doesn't fix any data that may have been recorded incorrectly! If you use inventory *and* have sold parts before buying them (such that inventory ended up being negative), LedgerSMB may have debited income and credited expenses instead of crediting inventory and debiting expenses. This leads to too high inventory, too low income and too low expenses. The LedgerSMB team recommends consulting an accountant if this bug affects your books or contact a LedgerSMB consultant to identify if your books are affected (e.g. from https://ledgersmb.org/content/commercial-support) Downloads For installation instructions and system requirements, see https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/blob/1.7.15/README.md The release can be downloaded from our download site at https://download.ledgersmb.org/f/Releases/1.7.15 The release can be downloaded from GitHub at https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/releases/tag/1.7.15 Or pulled from Docker Hub using the command $ docker pull ledgersmb/ledgersmb:1.7.15 These are the sha256 checksums of the uploaded files: 868cfb31edfb62a404d5f264327c84e5ea5999aeb56a4adac5c7ac532c156f8d ledgersmb-1.7.15.tar.gz f28a92326f99a4440f1be9ba74187ae4e61101a28262b8287ac8fca08e3e6d11 ledgersmb-1.7.15.tar.gz.asc

API design and choices
by Erik Huelsmann 17 May '20

17 May '20

Hi, Talking on our chat channel, we were talking how to best implement our API. Over the past months, the idea was to implement our new API as JSON:API. This mail serves to lay out experiences and thoughts so far. Maybe it helps to determine good next steps. As a first step, it would probably be a good idea to list why we need an API followed by what we need/want from it. The Why's: * Integration with other applications, not all provided by the project * Better support the needs from our web front-end: Vue, Dojo, react all want to be hooked to REST APIs * Development of custom front-ends What would we like our API to be? 1. Standards compliant where we can; if a generic browser could be used to "surf" the API, even better 2. Preferably well-defined semantics for good guidance on implementation 3. Resource definitions don't mirror internal table structures, but define logical concepts 4. Easy to understand and use by non-project developers 5. Easy to expand by project developers while maintaining consistency 6. Development supported by Perl libraries on CPAN 7. Supports returning the same resource in many forms (e.g. invoice as JSON, PDF or HTML) From the investigations we did, it seems JSON:API supports (1), (2), (5) and (6): it provides good guidance on the structure of resource URL naming as well as the structure of the JSON object returned. There's a even PONAPI on CPAN: Perl's implementation of a JSON:API server. With respect to (3) [resource definitions], I'm finding the standard extremely limiting: due to the structure imposed on returned documents, references to other resources are always "top level" members. I mean that the standard allows resources to be complex structures, with arrays and objects nested in the definition. However, those nested structures can't refer to other resources. As an example: if the lines of a GL journal is included in the resource definition as an array, then the lines themselves can't refer to other resources, such as accounts or batches. The standard authors solve this by making the lines separate (nested) resources, which are returned with the request for the journal. With this limitation, the resources in the api quickly start to mirror the internal table structure: GL lines need to refer accounts, invoice lines need to refer to parts and inventory. Orders need to refer to multiple addresses (billing, shipping). Journal lines need to refer to batches, payments, transactions, accounts, etc. Most examples where JSON:API explains related and nested resources, it takes a blog post with its comments. For that use-case, I understand the structure chosen. However, in the use-case of a GL transaction, the transaction *is* its lines. On the topic of (7) [support for returning multiple forms of the resource], I can be short: allowing any other mime-type on a JSON:API endpoint than application/vnd.api+json is a violation of the spec. Then there's (6) [supported by Perl libraries]. The good thing are: it's a PSGI app that can be mounted in our URL space and building the JSON:API server is work we don't have to do anymore. It seems pretty low on activity though: its latest release was in Feb 2019, with a bit of prior activity in Dec 2017, Feb 2017 and Sep 2016. The number of open issues is pretty low: 13, but none newer than 2016; from the open issues, it's clear that it doesn't support the full specification yet, because it doesn't support paging of "referred to" resources. The issue that's been untouched the longest (https://github.com/mickeyn/PONAPI/issues/45) calls for thorough investigation before we jump on this module, however: "Creating a repository is non-trivial" (a repository in PONAPI is where the data is sourced from); apparently, implementing a data source is still a lot of work, even though the framework is there. Another downside that I found from PONAPI is that it doesn't pass the web-request context on to the data provider. Normally that isn't a problem, likely, but for our project, where the web request context equals database access, this is a big problem. In short: * PONAPI is incomplete and development is slow (but has releases on CPAN dating back to 2015, so maybe it's mostly "done") * JSON:API has -by design- some serious limitations in the way we can define our resources, resulting - quite likely - in mirroring internal table structure in the resource definition * our desire to return various representations of the same resource conflicts with the JSON:API standard Given the above, I'd welcome your thoughts, opinions and reseach contributions. To address some (or all) of the short-comings of PONAPI, I've started developing our own JSON:API server component. However, there is a lot of work to be done to move that anywhere. I hope this mail will stir discussion and provide direction on whether or not to continue on our own JSON:API component, seeking contact with PONAPI or to move in a different direction entirely. Regards, Erik.

Porting into OpenBSD
by Chris Bennett 03 May '20

03 May '20

Hello, I've submitted a number of the Perl ports for OpenBSD. Most have an OK. New imports require a second OK. At some point that will happen. I also submitted an issue with some suggested description improvements to the author of Plack::Request::WithEncoding. He liked my suggestions and that module is now at v13. There are some other dependency changes, too, which might need to be addressed for building. Or maybe not relevant. Those building changes from Module::Build to Module::Build::Tiny have now led me down the road to properly understnading those modules, so that's going to take up a little of my time. Time that's probably well spent. I'll keep submitting new modules. I doubt that I'll get everything in for this upcoming -release (OK, I'm sure I won't), but probably will get things into -current after -release. I'm having fun so far. I hope that everyone is doing OK right now. Chris Bennett
