v3.2.0

This release adds two new features to FewohBee.

Calendar Sync

It is now possible to export your reservation calendar as a calendar in the iCal format for each apartment.
In order to do this navigate to Settings -> Room and click on the small calendar icon:

... here you have the possibility to change the visibility of the calendar as well as copy the URL which is required to access the calendar from the outside of FewohBee.
You can use the copied URL e.g. to import your calendar in airbnb, booking.com, google calendar or any other application where you want to see your bookings from FewohBee and which supports importing calendars in the iCal format.

This export is very useful for single-room properties as they can manage different booking portals in one central application now!
In order to be fully transparent: This is not comparable with commercial channel managers where bookings are synced immediately. Be aware that you or FewohBee has no influence when and how often applications where you've imported a FewohBee calendar will sync a calendar!

In order to use this new feature your FewohBee installation must be reachable from the internet.

See: #49

Yearly calendar view

A new overview page was added which allows you to view your reservations on a yearly base per apartment. Simply click on the icon in the reservation overview to switch to the new view:

This is also a very useful feature for smaller or single-room properties as the regular table view is not very handy for them.
The new view allows easy selection of the period for a new reservation using the mouse (hold left button) too.

See: #51

And of course the new release addresses some further bugfixes and improvements.

Full Changelog: 3.1.2...3.2.0

FewohBee

A new version of FewohBee has been released that adds a couple of new features and improvements for existing ones:

• when creating or updating a reservation a new tab was added which displays the expected price (price preview). Furthermore, you can add additional positions like breakfast and so on based on existing price categories. These options will then be taken into account when you create the invoice.
• Prices can be marked as flat/fix price. When setting this option, the specified price is applied for the entire stay and is not summed up to the number of nights.
• Price categories now distinguish between included VAT and without. This option will be taken into account when calculating the invoice positions. Please see notes below.
• Added a password forgotten function that sends a reset password email to the user's mail address. (see #38)
• Added a command to add a new user via cli (see #38)
• Full PHP 8 support
• Uprade to Symfony 5.2

Full list see #39

Please note: The new version contains breaking changes (BC).

• Removed Swiftmailer dependency and replaced it with symfony mailer
  • In order to sent mails you must rename the environment variable MAILER_URL to MAILER_DSN
  • the old value of MAILER_URL ist NOT compatible with the required value for MAILER_DSN
    before:
    MAILER_URL=smtp://yourdomain.tld:port?encryption=ssl&auth_mode=login&username=&password=
    after:
    MAILER_DSN= smtp://username:password@yourdomain.tld:port/?encryption=tls
• Price categories now distinguish between included VAT and without. The default value for existing price categories and invoice items is: incl. VAT!
  • Please review your existing prices and invoices whether they still meet your requirements.

fewohbee-dockerized

The dockerized setup was also upgraded. It is recommended to update fewohbee-dockerized as well.
