eetFestijn makes it easy to collect take-away orders for a large group. It is especially worthwhile when ordering from the same place on repeated occassions. Using eetFestijn, users can select items from a menu to compose their orders. A complete overview of all orders is automatically generated, as well as a 'simplified' summary that could be printed and taken along.
The dependencies of eetFestijn are listed in the requirements.txt file. Since introducing the 'export to PDF' functionality, the number of dependencies has steeply grown. In order to be able to export PDFs, eetFestijn uses the WeasyPrint library, converting HTML/CSS to print-ready PDF documents. Unfortunately, the dependencies of WeasyPrint are not all that straightforward. When running pip install -r requirements.txt, one might run into any number of the errors involving missing header files. Luckily, they can be trivially fixed by installing a number of development packages. On Debian-based systems, this can be achieved by calling apt-get install libffi-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev.
After succesfully installing the requirements, you might be faced with an error thrown by Django: ImportError: cannot import name properties. In that case, you may need to install lib-pango, as follows: apt-get install libpango1.0-0. Or use brew install cairo pango if you're on macOS.
When deploying eetFestijn, be sure to change the SECRET_KEY in eetfestijn/settings.py and add the appropriate ALLOWED_HOSTS. In case you're using eetFestijn for some other menu, you may want to omit the Fest-specific data migrations in orders/migrations/ (currently migration 0005, 0006 and 0007).
