Quick Start

WuttaPOS is a `Python`_ app based on `Rattail`_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. _Python: https://www.python.org/
|
||
|
|
.. _Rattail: https://rattailproject.org/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As such it requires a Rattail DB to already be established, containing
|
||
|
|
data for users (cashiers), customers, products etc. Getting all that
|
||
|
|
setup is outside the scope of this guide; for more info see the
|
||
|
|
`Rattail Manual`_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. _Rattail Manual: https://rattailproject.org/docs/rattail-manual/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here we are focused only on getting the WuttaPOS app setup.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Installation
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make a virtual environment::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
python -m venv /srv/envs/wuttapos
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Install the WuttaPOS package into it::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd /srv/envs/wuttapos
|
||
|
|
bin/pip install WuttaPOS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configuration
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make a basic config file::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd /srv/envs/wuttapos
|
||
|
|
bin/rattail make-config -T rattail -O app
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then edit ``app/rattail.conf`` to suit your needs. In particular you
|
||
|
|
must specify the DB connection.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Usage
|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you can run the app::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd /srv/envs/wuttapos
|
||
|
|
bin/wuttapos open
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Access Control
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that the app will only allow a user to login to POS, if they have
|
||
|
|
permissions specific to the POS, namely "ring sales"
|
||
|
|
(``pos.ring_sales``).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once logged in, additional POS-specific permissions will determine
|
||
|
|
whether the user may perform some actions, or not. In the latter case
|
||
|
|
the user may *initiate* the action but then another user
|
||
|
|
(e.g. manager) must login to complete the action.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All permissions must be managed externally, e.g. via your Rattail
|
||
|
|
back-office web app. WuttaPOS will honor them but does not expose a
|
||
|
|
way to manage them.
