In order to achieve it goals OutKafe comprises a number of core components:

  • A server-daemon for counting time down centrally outkafed
  • A management console where you can add time, kick users, define special offers etc. outkafe-admin
  • A number of platform specific clients apps which control login on your terminals including clients for linux and windows
  • A central database server (currently only postgresql is supported)
  • A back-end library to abstract all database work out for ease of maintenance and stability across the various components.ok

Initial config

Add an entry to /etc/postgresql/8.3/main/pg_hba.conf to allow plaintext password connections over TCP/IP from any workstations:

host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          password

Set listen_addresses to '*' in /etc/postgresql/8.3/main/postgresql.conf

sudo -u postgres createuser -D -A -P admin
sudo -u postgres createdb -E utf8 -O admin outkast
sudo -u postgres psql -e outkast < outkafe.sql

Use --keep to analyse the files before installation
