Hello there,

I’m looking for a self-hosted rental system. It’s for a smaller institution, which is renting out hardware (for free and non-commercial use), and the current system (EasyJob) is way too bloated.

The service should be publishable to the internet, ideally hostable via Docker or a ProxMox VM, and should have a user-management.

I was thinking about using something like an e-commerce service?

Do you have a good idea regarding this topic?

Best regards

      I can see your comment in my profile though. Weird.

      So, I’ve set up a Snipe-IT instance to play around, and test some stuff.

      What I’m lacking or failed to set up properly, is something like a calendar, where assigned assets and their expected return dates are shown.

        There is nothing native (though a few options have been played with, AFAIK never completed because…), but there are a ton of integrations. You can use webhooks to teams, there are python wrappers for the API, even a google docs integration.

        Probably the lowest code option would be to find someone else’s tool for snipe-it (sorry I’ve never looked), or do something like snipe it to google sheets to be imported as a CSV or something.

        Or take a peek at some others in the same territory, or maybe ticketing systems with simple asset management.

        But i think something like snipe-it, if not exactly, is going to be the right territory of what you’re looking for

          Thank you for your thoughts, I will continue to tinker around with snipe-it.
