LibreOffice Calc

I use homebox and it has been good for my home usecase. I have put qr codes on boxes to easily check contents from my phone

HomeBox is perfect for your use case. You could also try InvenTree, but I think HomeBox is going to better suit your needs.

A CSV file should work.

This might be an unpopular opinion/solution but even for two small size sister companies we are doing inventory in a version controlled markdown file 🫣

Another shout for Homebox. I used to use a spreadsheet but over time found I simply didn't maintain it but I've found I always maintain Homebox.

Homebox allows parent/child relationship between items & exports to spreadsheet.

I dont utilise the QR code facility because my family members would not bother to use QR codes. Instead I've numbered all boxes in each location (attic, garage, basement etc), printed contents of each box & put the printout into physical folders left in each location so even the most Luddite in my family can easily locate stuff then, in theory, remember where they took it from & if the stars align & its my luck day, put the item back in the same box that they removed said item from. When that happens I always check my lottery numbers too!

They can't filter/search a physical printout but at least they can find stuff (I guess I should simply add a QR code to each printout for a best of both worlds solution).

Overall I've found Homebox a useful, simple & fun tool

Snipe-it is a bit overkill but it's pretty good.

Grocy also has an inventory tracker. I'm not sure how different it is tho

A CSV in git

+1 for netbox

I'm suggesting HomeBox.

Small, selfhosted and centered around home use.

NocoDB.

Snipe-IT and Shelf.nu are two of the most popular ones.

Maybe also consider just kicking one out yourself with NocoBase or something like that though.

Besides CSV, if you want to have lots of optional fields, a YAML file in a git repository is an option. Use yq or to query it.

Get Ralph it's awesome. Use it in conjunction with Zabbix too if you're monitoring your infra as well.

you want a gui. so cvs is weak. give nocodb a run. can do ANYTHING. cool product overviews, easy to create tables even with attachment like images.

There's a couple of options.

I've used Grocy. It's not intended for that particular use case but it would work. More for Grocery management.

I've been looking for something like this myself. I've tried:

• NocoDB
• Baserow
• Homebox
• Snipe-IT

In the end I went with Grist. It may not be specifically designed for it, but it is very flexible.

Libreoffice has a database engine and frontend that's pretty applicable to Microsoft Access

I get very far by just keeping a set of folders for each piece of equipment in a git repo.

Pictures, etc, and sometimes the PDF manual if I bother.

The difficult part here is being consistent over time - making sure you mark down when you bought things, serial numbers, etc. a proper website/app will force you to do this, but there is flexibility in having whatever convention you like most

Spiceworks? Been a while since ive used it

@DasFaultier@sh.itjust.works we've recently deployed Netbox which seems to somewhat do what you want, although its more targetted towards datacenter and network engineers (and maybe not lightweight enough for you?)

If you really need nothing special then maybe a good ol' spreadsheet is a better solution for you.
