français: Lisez-moi

This project is used daily by individuals, associations, tea and wine shops, theaters, art centers and professional bookshops.

Abelujo allows to:

• look up for books, either by keywords or by isbn/ean (which works with a barcode scanner). See the https://gitlab.com/vindarel/bookshops library. You can currently search for:

  • french books:
    • through Dilicom (the profesional provider)
    • or librairiedeparis
  • spanish books (through casadellibro.com)
  • german books(through buchlentner.de)
  • you want another one ? The sooner you tell us, the quicker you'll have it ;)

• look up for CDs (via discogs.com)

• do inventories of your stock,

• manage lists of books, export them to csv and pdf (with barcodes),

• send an email to distributors to order books,

• manage deposits and distributors, see the balance of your deposits,

• sell books, see the history,

It is translated to English, French and Spanish.

We base our work on the software specifications from the Ruche project (to which we particpated): http://ruche.eu.org/wiki/Specifications_fonctionnelles. We wrote there what we understood about the work of a bookseller (like how to manage different distributors, how to manage deposits, etc). You should read it and tell us wether or not what we are doing will suit your needs (I'll translate this document to english one day or another, but you should tell me now if you're interested).

Abelujo means Beehive in Esperanto.

Enjoy!

note: if you are getting started and are feeling adventurous, use the django20py3 branch: it uses Python 3.6 and one of the latest Django version (2.2). For stability, stay with master.

Instructions for Debian 9.

Either do the quick way:

apt install curl -y && curl -sS https://gitlab.com/vindarel/abelujo/raw/master/install.sh | bash -

this will clone the repo in the current directory and install all its dependencies.

or read below for the detailed instructions.

See after to install without sudo.

Get the sources:

git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/vindarel/abelujo.git

it creates the directory "abelujo":

cd abelujo

Ensure you have Python 2.7.

Install the required dependencies for Debian (Ubuntu/LinuxMint/etc):

make debian
# a shortcut for
# sudo apt-get install python-pip
# sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper

Create and activate a virtual environment (so than we can install python libraries locally, not globally to your system). Do as you are used to, or do the following:

source venv_create.sh # [venvname] (optional argument)
workon abelujo

now your shell prompt should show you are in the abelujo virtualenv. To quit the virutal env, type deactivate. To enter it, type workon \<TAB\> abelujo.

To install the dependencies, create and populate the database, run:

make install

We are done ! Now to try Abelujo, run the development server like this:

make run
# or set the port with:
# python manage.py runserver 9876

and open your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000 (admin/admin).

You might need to create a superuser: see the dev documentation.

make debian-nosudo
make install-nosudo

please read the Makefile in this particular case.

To update, you need to: pull the sources (git pull --rebase), install new packages (system and python-wide), run the database migrations, build the static assets and, in production, collect the static files.

In the virtual env, run:

make update
# git pull --rebase
# git submodule update --remote
# install pip, migrate, compile transalation files.

• for version 0.8 (january, 24th 2020): update pip, run make update, and start the new task queue with make taskqueue. You don't need Redis anymore.

Django project, in python (2.7) and JavaScript (AngularJS).

We use:

• LiveScript
• jade templates, which compile to html, and pyjade for the Django integration
• Bootstrap's CSS with django-bootstrap3
• the Django-q asynchronous task queue.

See the developer documentation: http://dev.abelujo.cc/.

This is our database graph (make graphdb).

As a complement to the installion procedure above, you also need to install development dependencies that are listed in another requirements file::

make pip-dev

and npm packages

make npm
# this installs node dependencies

Then, to build the JS and CSS:

make gulp

and commit the result.

Also install npm packages to run end to end tests:

make npm-dev  # packages listed in devDependencies of packages.json

You can install and try everything in a Vagrant virtual machine, thanks to a nice contribution: https://gitlab.com/anarchistcat/abelujo-ansible

We need a task queue for long operations (notably applying an inventory to the stock). We use Django-q in pure-Django mode (no more Redis).

Start it with

make task-queue &
# aka honcho start &

Put your Sentry private token in a sentry.txt file. The settings will see and read it.

To get Fabric send it to the remote instance on install (fab install calls fab save_variables), add the token into your clients.yaml under sentry_token (see the fabfile).

Test with python manage.py raven test and see the new message in your dashboard.

We support fetching data on Electre's API. We can search by ISBN or with a free text search.

The pyelectre module is developed separately, you will to get in touch with us.

make unit

Code coverage:

make cov  # and open your browser at htmlcov/index.html

Given you have Docker already installed, run the installation script in a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 with:

chmod +x dockentry.sh
docker run  -v "$(pwd)/docker":/home/docker/ -ti ubuntu:16.04 /home/docker/dockentry.sh

The script given as argument creates a user with sudo rights and then calls the installation script.

You can also simply step into the image and run scripts manually from there.

See a bit more in doc/dev/ci.rst.

See the scripts in scripts/ to load data (specially shelves names), in different languages.

If you get:

OperationalError: no such column: search_card.card_type_id

it is probably because you pulled the sources and didn't update your DB. Use database migrations (make migrate).

To uninstall Javascript and Python libraries, see make uninstall[-js, -pip].

The most worth it is to uninstall JS libs from node_modules, that frees a couple MB up.

We have developer documentation: http://dev.abelujo.cc/
