| Locate Mixin |
LocateMixin
The LocateMixin class enables plugins to "locate" stock items (or stock locations) via an entirely custom method.
For example, a warehouse could be arranged with each individual 'parts bin' having an audio-visual indicator (e.g. RGB LED and buzzer). "Locating" a particular stock item causes the LED to flash and the buzzer to sound.
Another example might be a parts retrieval system, where "locating" a stock item causes the stock item to be "delivered" to the user via a conveyor.
The possibilities are endless!
Web Integration

App Integration
If a locate plugin is installed and activated, the InvenTree mobile app displays a button for locating a StockItem or StockLocation (see below):
{{ image("plugin/app_locate.png", "Locate stock item from app", maxheight="400px") }}
Implementation
Refer to the [InvenTree source code]({{ sourcefile("src/backend/InvenTree/plugin/samples/locate/locate_sample.py") }}) for a simple implementation example.
Sample Plugin
A simple example is provided in the InvenTree code base:
::: plugin.samples.locate.locate_sample.SampleLocatePlugin options: show_bases: False show_root_heading: False show_root_toc_entry: False show_source: True members: []
