Inventory check-in/out (device) manager that supports a tablet kiosk.

Review the settings.py file for configuration details.

Note: This is beta software.

Kiosk

Admin

Requires

• Python +2.6
• MongoDB +2.x

Instructions:

1. Download Inventory Checkin source from GitHub.
2. Clone/extract the source code in the desired (install) directory. This will be where the app lives.
3. In the setup directory. Run sh ./virtualenv-setup.sh to setup an isolated environment and download dependencies.
4. Configure settings. The defaults in settings.py provide documentation for each setting.
   • Copy settings.py to local_settings.py.
   • Override/copy any setting from settings.py to local_settings.py (change the values as needed).
5. Run source inventorycheckin_env/bin/activate to enter the virtual environment. Type deactivate to exit the virtual environment.
6. Run python main.py --runserver to start the web server.
7. Go to http://localhost:7777 to access the web interface. Uses the twitter bootstrap for its UI.

username: admin@example.com
password: admin

The defaults can be changed in the admin: http://localhost:7777/admin.

This web app will allow you to setup users which are either admin or only authenticated. However, the system works with three user types: admin, authenticated, and anonymous.

Typical scenario (setup):

co/i = Check Out and In

1. Login as the admin.
2. Update the admin user credentials (if needed).
3. Import/create persons that can co/i inventory items.
4. Add groups and inventory items to the groups.
5. Create an authenticated (non-admin) user for the kiosks/tablets. This will allow the user to co/i inventory items, but no access is given to the admin panel.
6. Login using the kiosk credentials on the desired device.
   • Go to /inventory.
   • All other users can then co/i items from that device.
7. Anonymous users can now view the co/i status of the items in the inventory.
   • Go to /inventory.
   • It is a readonly view of the inventory, that auto-refreshes.

Sample supervisord.conf section:

[program:inventorymate]
command = /path/to/inventorymate/inventorycheckin_env/bin/python main.py --runserver
directory = /path/to/inventorymate
stdout_logfile = /path/to/inventorymate.log
