Original Post

It’s been a week or two since my last devlog for Snow Update Checker and I’ve managed to finish Version 1.0. While making this I decided that I’m going to keep it close-sourced and unreleased to the public, but I’ll likely share parts of the code in the future for how it works with the Product Release API I made.

From all of features I’d planned out, these are the ones that I have included in v1.0.

  • Add Computers from Active Directory
  • Add Computers Manually
  • Import Computers (via shared Form)
  • Export Reports for All Computers (Scanned) and All Computers Update(s) Required
  • Clear Temporary Computer Cache
  • View Temporary Computer Cache
  • Export Temporary Computer Cache

I finalised the columns below

Column NameColumn TypeExample
Computer NameTEXTSVR01SQL01
Computer StatusTEXTONLINE
License Manager VersionVERSION9.7.1
Inventory Server VersionVERSION6.4.0
License Manager Update AvailableCHECKBOXTRUE
Inventory Server Update AvailableCHECKBOXFALSE

I’m too lazy to get a screenshot of the final version (that and I want to keep it private) but, it works and it’s pretty cool. I might release a "lite" version in the future for public use but we'll see.

Catch. x
