A Point of Sale (POS) system run in a browser. It handles a barcodescanner to sell stuffs.

The project is in active use but should be considerd a beta.

• Sell things with a barcode scanner
• Type the name of a product to not need the scanner
• Track deliveries
• Track stock
• Contains a (very) limited book keeping system

There is a demo of the system running here http://retail.eric.druid.se/Retail. As it's running on a raspberrypi, please go easy on it if it feels sluggish. username: admin password: admin

• php >= 5.3
• php-gd (for bar code generation and statistics display)
• php-curl (used by login service which might want to be replaced)
• php-mysql
• MySQL
• gnu-barcode (deb package barcode)

The project requires a webserver, it has been developed and tested with apache webserver but try a different one and it might work.

This project has only been tested to work with firefox and chromium but other browsers should not be a problem.

1. Place the content of the project in a folder

2. Create an empty mysql database for the project. If the database name is not nitroxy_retail grant.sql needs to be updated accordingly.

3. Create a db user. If the name of the user is not nitroxy_retail, grant.sql needs to be updated accordingly.

4. Copy db_settings/nitroxy_retail.php to db_settings/nitroxy_retail.local.php and edit the settings to your configuration.

5. Start the mysql prompt and run the following mysql -u root -p nitroxy_retail --default-character-set=utf8

   1. source nitroxy_retail.sql
   2. source data.sql
   3. source grant.sql

6. Compile genbarcode for your architecture (can be ignored if you don't want barcodes for your products)

   1. make -C lib/src/genbarcode-0.4
   2. mkdir lib/bin
   3. mv lib/src/genbarcode-0.4/genbarcode lib/bin

7. Set up apache2

   1. create a new site in /etc/apache2/sites_available/100-nitroxy-retail-system.conf (debianistic systems) This is what I have in my test config, update as needed with ssl cert etc.

       NameVirtualHost *:80
      
       <VirtualHost *:80>
       	ServerName retail.eric.druid.se
       	ServerAlias retail
      
       	DocumentRoot /path/to/root/Nitroxy-retail-system/public
       	<Directory /path/to/root/Nitroxy-retail-system/public>
       		Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
       		AllowOverride All
       		Order allow,deny
       		Require all granted # apache2 version >= 2.4
       	</Directory>
      
       	ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/nitroxy_retail_error.log
       	LogLevel warn
       	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/nitroxy_retail_access.log combined
       </VirtualHost>
      

8. Enable the site with sudo a2ensite 100-nitroxy-retail-system.conf

9. Enable apache2 module rewrite sudo a2enmod rewrite

10. If php version < 5.4, make sure /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini has short_open_tag = On. Have a look at other settings as desired.

11. Restart apache sudo service apache2 restart

12. Unless you are from the society Proxxi you want to do something about what is done in classes/User.php in the external_login function so as to not authenticate against Proxxis system...

1. Log in to the system
2. Navigate to Lager > Kategorier
3. Use the form to add categories to the system (Candy, Soda, etc)
4. Next go to Lager > Ny leverans and create a delivery (Se seperate delivery instructions)
