HomeBox ​

HomeBox is used to manage home inventory. Great for OCD like me to keep track of all the stuffs I ever owned, and it even count the total asset values!

Scroll to the top and you should see a newly created homebox container.

Import CSV ​

You can even import CSV! See https://hay-kot.github.io/homebox/import-csv/ for more info.

Here is an example:

These are the columns I used.

HB.name	HB.purchase_price	HB.purchase_from	HB.manufacturer	HB.model_number	HB.serial_number	HB.purchase_time	HB.location	HB.labels	HB.quantity	HB.description	HB.notes	HB.field.purchase_platform	HB.field.purchase_from_url	HB.field.purchase_item_url	HB.field.payment_card_num	HB.import_ref	HB.asset_id	HB.archived	HB.insured	HB.lifetime_warranty	HB.warranty_expires	HB.warranty_details	HB.sold_to	HB.sold_price	HB.sold_time	HB.sold_notes

TIP

I created several additional custom fields to satisfy my OCD:

  • HB.field.purchase_platform: Which e-Commerce platform I purchased from, e.g. Amazon, Shoppee
  • HB.field.purchase_from_url: The URL where I purchase from the seller
  • HB.field.purchase_item_url: The URL of the item (official)
  • HB.field.payment_method: The payment method I used, e.g. PayPal, Credit Card, Debit Card, Bank Transfer
  • HB.field.payment_card_num: The last 4 digit of the credit card used to purchase

Customization ​

You can select different theme.
