# Smart display for order-tracker

Smart order screen like at McDonald's.

## How does this work?

This python script launches a

- websocket server on localhost:8081

- HTTP-sevrer on localhost:8080

- chromium instance showing http://localhost:8080/index.html

Post a JSON of the following format to `http://localhost:8080/update`,

which updates the order numbers.

```json

{

    "preparing": [103, 104, 105],

    "finished": [101, 102]

}

```

Reverse-proxy or otherwise export `http://localhost:8080/update` if your

software that updates the display is hosted on another machine.

## Build and run

1. Install python >= 3.7 and chromium

2. Create a virtualenv directory: `python3 -m venv venv` and `source venv/bin/activate`

3. Install requirements: `pip install -r requirements.txt`

4. Run: `python3 display.py`

## Build for distribution

The included `build-dish.sh` script packages the python script as a standalone binary.

## Customization

You can place an mp4-video into `web/ad-video.mp4`. This will be played on the left pane.

You can otherwise customize the HTML files in the web directory. Using the `-r` option, you

can also specify a different webroot. The web-page just takes the above JSON and displays

the numbers.
