### New feature: Use any product related quantity unit anywhere
- Finally it's possible to use any product related quantity unit on any page
- Products still have one quantity unit stock and one (default) quantity unit purchase, but any QU, which has a direct or indirect conversion for that product, can be used to pick an amount
_- (Because the stock quantity unit is now the base for everything, it cannot be changed after the product was once added to stock (for now, maybe there will be a possibilty to change it in a future release))_
- Each product barcode can be assigned an amount, quantity unit and store (on the product edit page), which is then automatically prefilled on the purchase page
- Users can now have permissions, can be configured per user on the "Manage users" page (lock icon)
- Default permissions for new users can be set via a new `config.php` setting `DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS` (defaults to `ADMIN`, so no changed behavior when not configured)
- All currently existing users will get all permissions (`ADMIN`) during the update/migration
- New `config.php` setting `AUTH_CLASS` to change the used authentication provider
- Via LDAP
- New `config.php` settings `LDAP_DOMAIN`, `LDAP_ADDRESS` and `LDAP_BASE_DN`
- If you set `AUTH_CLASS` to `Grocy\Middleware\LdapAuthMiddleware`, users will be authenticated against your directory (and will also be created (in grocy), if not already present)
- Via a reverse proxy
- New `config.php` setting `REVERSE_PROXY_AUTH_HEADER`
- If you set `AUTH_CLASS` to `Grocy\Middleware\ReverseProxyAuthMiddleware` and your reverse proxy sends a username in the HTTP header `REMOTE_USER` (header name can be changed by the setting `REVERSE_PROXY_AUTH_HEADER`), the user is automatically authenticated (and will also be created (in grocy), if not already present)
- (Thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc for the initial work on this)
- Optimized/clarified what the total/unit price is on the purchase page (thanks @kriddles)
- On the purchase page the amount field is now displayed above/before the best before date for better `TAB` handling (thanks @kriddles)
- Changed that when `FEATURE_FLAG_STOCK_BEST_BEFORE_DATE_TRACKING` is disabled, products now get internally a best before of "never expires" (aka `2999-12-31`) instead of today (thanks @kriddles)
- Products can now be hidden instead of deleted to prevent problems / missing information on existing references (new checkbox on the product edit page) (thanks @kriddles)
- For products with tare weight handling enabled, it's now optionally possible to consume a fixed/exact amount (just like for "normal" products) in case you don't want to weigh the whole container this time (new checkbox on the consume page) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- It's now possible to set a custom purchased date on purchase (new field on the purchase and inventory page, hidden by default - enable it by a new stock setting (top right corner settings menu)) (thanks @kriddles)
- The decimal places for all amount and price inputs can now be configured (stock settings / top right corner settings menu, default for amounts is `4`, for prices `2`)
- Fixed that changing the products "Factor purchase to stock quantity unit" not longer messes up historical prices (which results for example in wrong recipe costs) (thanks @kriddles)
- Fixed that when adding products through a product picker workflow and when the created products contains special characters, the product was not preselected on the previous page (thanks @Forceu)
- Fixed that `FEATURE_SETTING_STOCK_COUNT_OPENED_PRODUCTS_AGAINST_MINIMUM_STOCK_AMOUNT` (option to configure if opened products should be considered for minimum stock amounts) was not handled correctly (thanks @teddybeermaniac)
- Fixed that the "Expiring soon" sum (yellow filter button) on the stock overview page didn't include products which expire today (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Fixed that the shopping cart icon on the stock overview page was also shown if the product was on an already deleted shopping list (if enabled) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Fixed that the aggregated amount of parent products was wrong on the stock overview page when the child products had not the same stock quantity units
- Fixed that consuming products with enabled tare weight handling did not work on the stock entries page (also fixed that opening those products is not possible there)
- Improved that when `FEATURE_FLAG_STOCK` is disabled, all product/stock related inputs and buttons are now hidden on the shopping list page (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Fixed that "Add products that are below defined min. stock amount" always rounded up the missing amount to an integral number, this now allows decimal numbers
- Improved the recipe add workflow (a recipe called "New recipe" is now not automatically created when starting to add a recipe) (thanks @zsarnett)
- Fixed that images on the recipe gallery view were not scaled correctly on larger screens (thanks @zsarnett)
- Fixed that decimal ingredient amounts maybe resulted in wrong conversions or truncated decimal places if your locale does not use a dot as the decimal separator (thanks @m-byte)
- Fixed that when editing a recipe ingredient the checkbox "Disable stock fulfillment checking for this ingredient" was not initaliased with the saved value
- Changed that not assigned chores on the chores overview page display now just a dash instead of an ellipsis in the "Assigned to" column to make this more clear (thanks @Germs2004)
- Fixed (again) that weekly chores, where the next execution should be in the same week, were scheduled (not) always (but sometimes) for the next week only (thanks @shadow7412)
- Fixed that the assignment type "In alphabetic order" did not work correctly (the last person in the list was always assigned next once reached) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- The equipment page now will never automatically reload, even when `Auto reload on external changes` is on and a change was detected (because you most probably have that page open longer to read the manual) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- UI refresh / style improvements (thanks @zsarnett for the idea and initial work on this)
- Improved mobile views (thanks @4lloyd for the idea and initial work on this)
- The buttons on the top of each page and the filter row is now collapsed (use the ellipsis/filter button to show them, this also superseded the shopping list compact view)
- Tables are horizontally scrollable (instead of collapsing columns which don't fit)
- Table columns can now be shown/hidden (new little eye icon on the top left corner on each table)
- There are also new columns on some pages, hidden by default
- Dialogs are now used everywhere where appropriate instead of jumping between pages (for exampel when adding/editing shopping list items)
- Added a "Clear filter"-button on all pages (with filters) to quickly reset applied filters
- The data path (previously fixed to the `data` folder) is now configurable, making it possible to run multiple grocy instances from the same directory (with different `config.php` files / different database, etc.) (thanks @fgrsnau)
- Via an environment variable `GROCY_DATAPATH` (higher priority)
- Via an FastCGI parameter `GROCY_DATAPATH` (lower priority)
- The language can now be set per user (see the new user settings page / top right corner settings menu) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Additionally, the language is now also auto-guessed based on the browser locale (HTTP-Header `Accept-Language`)
- The `config.php` option `CULTURE` was renamed to `DEFAULT_LOCALE`
- So the used language is based on (in that order)
- The user setting
- If not set, then based on browser locale
- If no matching localizaton was found, `DEFAULT_LOCALE` from `config.php` is used
- Performance improvements (page loading time) of the stock overview page (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- The prerequisites checker now also checks for the minimum required SQLite version (thanks @Forceu)
- Replaced (again, added before in v2.7.0, then reverted in v2.7.1 due to some problems) [QuaggaJS](https://github.com/serratus/quaggaJS) (seems to be unmaintained) by [Quagga2](https://github.com/ericblade/quagga2)
- More `config.php` settings (see the section `Component configuration for Quagga2`) to tweak Quagga2 (this is the component used for device camera for barcode scanning) (thanks @andrelam)
- Some localization string fixes (thanks @duckfullstop)
- Fixed that XSS / HTML injection was possible through some user input fields (low severity / not really a problem as this could not be abused unauthenticated)
- New translations: (thanks all the translators)
- Greek (demo available at https://el.demo.grocy.info)
- Korean (demo available at https://ko.demo.grocy.info)
- The product object no longer has a field `barcodes` with a comma separated barcode list, instead barcodes are now stored in a separate table/entity `product_barcodes` (use the existing "Generic entity interactions" endpoints to access them)
- For better integration (apps), it's now possible to show a QR-Code for API keys (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- New QR-Code button on the "Manage API keys"-page (top right corner settings menu), the QR-Codes contains `<API-Url>|<API-Key>`
- And on the calendar page when using the button "Share/Integrate calendar (iCal)", there the QR-Codes contains the Share-URL (which is displayed in the textbox above)
- The output of the following endpoints can now be filtered (by any field), ordered and paginated (thanks for the initial work on this @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Fixed that the endpoint `/objects/{entity}/{objectId}` always returned successfully, even when the given object not exists (now returns `404` when the object is not found) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Fixed that the endpoint `/stock/volatile` didn't include products which expire today (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
- Fixed that the endpoint `/stock/consume` returned the response code `200` and an empty response body when `stock_entry_id` was set (consuming a specific stock entry) but invalid (now returns the response code `400`) (thanks @fipwmaqzufheoxq92ebc)
