This repository contains the source code for the Server and the Web Application of slim-my-invoice. slim-my-invoice is Web Application that aims at facilitating invoices encoding using OCR.

• Apache Version 2.0

The easiest way to build is to install Maven v3.+ in your development environment.

Building is achieved with the following command:

• Run mvn clean install from the root directory

This command fetches all the project dependencies and creates a WAR file named slimmyinvoice.war in the /target folder.

In order to deploy the server, please follow the next steps:

• Install Java 6 and Tomcat 7 on a machine
• Create a folder /var/lib/slimmyinvoice/databases/ and allow read/write permissions on that folder
• Rename the WAR file to ROOT.war
• Move it in the folder /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/ on the machine

Tomcat will then automatically deploy the server and the web application should be available a few seconds later.

The following command may be useful to display the logs:

• cat /var/log/tomcat7/catalina.out

For the passwrod recovery functionnality to work, you need to configure the Properties class with an email address, and SMTP configuration.

The path to the database can also be modified in this class. Ensure that the provided directory has read/write privileges.
