WuttaPOS 0.4.0

Point of Sale system based on Wutta Framework

WuttaPOS

This project includes two primary components:

• web app and related daemons, to run on the server
• standalone GUI app, to run on the lanes

This project is in the very early stages and is not yet documented. It is based on an earlier effort, which used Rattail: rattail/wuttapos

However this project uses Wutta Framework, has no Rattail dependencies, and "starts over" for (mostly) everything.

Server

Make a virtual environment and install the app:

python3 -m venv wuttapos
source wuttapos/bin/activate
pip install WuttaPOS[server]
wuttapos install

For more info see https://docs.wuttaproject.org/wuttjamaican/narr/install/index.html

Terminal

It uses Flet for the GUI toolkit. The intended use case is to run as a proper standalone GUI app on the lane desktop.

Flet has yet to reach a stable 1.0 version, although it's getting close. Some things have changed since this GUI app project first began, and it needs refactoring to support newer Flet. It currently is pinning an older version so the code at least works.

So far, there is no installer per se. For development purpose you can install the server (above) and then within that same virtual environment:

pip install WuttaPOS[terminal]

The terminal and server apps will share the same database. The terminal probably requires more setup than just that, needs to be documented...

To launch the terminal app in GUI mode:

wuttapos run

To run the terminal as a web server:

wuttapos serve
