"GetParts" utility to help with inventory management

Recently, I installed an InvenTree Server to help me keep track of my steadily growing collection of electronic components.

Entering all my electronic parts ordered from Mouser into the system turned out to be very tedious though, since I needed to manually type all the part numbers written on the Mouser bags into the website to look up part information.

So I looked for a better option and found a small python utility called getparts, which scans the barcodes on Mouser labels using a camera and automatically downloads all part information from the Mouser API. This tool is not maintained and not very user friendly however. Therefore I took a little bit of time and created a new version of the tool, which has a graphical user interface and a few other handy features for entering the parts into InvenTree.
