Kassensystem

############



Preamble

========

For ages there has been the discussion - Kassensystem! 



So many attempts have been made, so many things have been discussed

and overengineered... But oh well, here is our attempt!





Mighty Kassensystem, finally!





Installation Process

====================



1. Webserver



Some sort of Webserver is needed to host the django part. All about deploying

django can be found at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/

Mostly this will be apache2 + mod_wsgi.



k4ever has static files which should be served by the webserver directly, so

be sure to turn off python for the media/ directory.



For development there is also djangos builtin webserver. You can use it via

./manage.py runserver but THIS SHOULD NEVER BE USED IN A PRODOCTIVE

ENVIRONMENT.







2. The database

 - edit settings.py for database

 - Add Usergroups: ('Normal User', 'Plugin') ( to be renamed)

 - ./manage.py syncdb

 - install script for needed data will be written.





Documentation

=============



Yes, there is more documentation than this readme! It is present

at k4ever/docs/, but if you want (and have python-sphinx) installed,

you can compile it to nice html (or pdf, ...) pages. There is a

``Makefile`` present to your assistance.
