EpPos is a basic Django (python)-based Point Of Sale system that is designed to be platform-independent (it runs on the web) and completely mobile- and touch-friendly.
Contributors: see the CONTRIBUTING file!
A POS (Point Of Service) system is the software that is used by cashiers and waiters to bill you and keep the stock. This one is meant for smaller businesses, like food trucks.
It is very simple. Have a look at the wiki! Or read this block of text since the wiki isn't yet up-to-date.
First off, install Python 3 and Django. If you are using Linux, they are probably in your repo's.
Then download EpPos to wherever you want to keep your Django apps, edit settings.py
and change the DEBUG var to False and add the domain name or IP-address from which the POS will
be accessed to the ALLOWED_HOSTS variable. Then run python manage.py migrate and python manage.py createsuperuser to create a new admin account which you can use to manage the system and
add new users.
Then set it up like you would set up any normal Django application, we recommend using
uWSGI with nginx.
If you need help with this, you can send me an email.
- There is a limitation in the total value of an order. It cannot exceed 10 digits, counting decimal places. If someone runs into this: congratulations, I'll have to update this.
Congratulations! You can report this issue on the issue tracker on GitHub. I will be forever grateful if you could possible be so kind as to include a server log and/or web console log.
Absolutely marvelous! Have a look in the CONTRIBUTING file for info about contributing!
You absolutely may. If you think what you want in a POS is not something that is in the scope of EpPOS (although you may always ask) you can for sure just fork it. Details are in the LICENSE file, we use the Apache license.
