And I just made an HTTP endpoint in golang that outputs PNG labels with small QRs just as I need them, to print out on my Bluetooth label printer.

How did you manage to make it lookup by inventory id? Normally it puts the whole uid in there which is much to big for the QR. Can you use Homebox qr search feature with your proxy?

Homebox supports the https://<hostname>/a/<inventory_id> shorthand and does a 302 jump for you. Otherwise yes, I would have implemented the API search in a microservice.
