Overview

Lakasir is an open source Point of Sale application for small and independent retailers. It pairs a touch friendly cashier screen with a full back office: products and categories with per unit pricing, suppliers and purchase orders, stock opname for inventory audits, members and vouchers, configurable payment methods, receivables tracking, simple accounting and a real time sales dashboard. Barcode scanning is supported across the cashier, purchasing and stock opname screens, and receipts can be sent straight to a USB thermal printer from the browser.

It suits shop owners who want to run a till and their stock records on infrastructure they control rather than a subscription service, and integrators who want a Laravel based POS they can extend for a client.

Why the cloudimg image

A till holds a business's sales and customer records, so cloudimg makes Lakasir secure by default. The upstream project seeds a well known administrator account; this image never creates it. Instead every instance generates its own secrets on first boot and writes them to a root only file: a fresh application key, a fresh database password, and a fresh administrator email and password, so no two instances share a credential and none is baked into the image. The panel is served over HTTPS by nginx with a certificate regenerated per instance, which is also what the offline capable cashier screen and browser based receipt printing need. The image ships with no demo inventory, the base is fully patched with unattended security upgrades enabled, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.

Common uses

  • Running a shop till with barcode scanning and thermal receipt printing
  • Tracking stock, suppliers, purchase orders and inventory audits in one place
  • Self hosting sales, receivables and reporting for a small retail business
