Install InfyPOS
If you have purchased the InfyPOS system then you will be able to find dist.zip within the main zip file.
Extract that file on your local and follow the following steps:
1. Copy files to a web server
Upload dist.zip to your web server's root (public_html) and extract it there. If you are installing it on subdomain
then do extract it in your subdomain's root folder.
2. Setup your Database
Open PHPMyAdmin on your server and do a login.
Click on the Databases tab. Create a new database and specify a Database name of your choice and click the Create button.
Now on the left, select the database that you have created and click Import in the top menu
Under Import, choose the database SQL file from dist/database/pos.sql from the extracted file from your local
and click the Go button.
3. Setup environment file
Open .env file on your server's root folder.
You need to change the following information into your environment (.env) file.
- APP_NAME - Name of your Application
- APP_URL - Change this URL with your server URL (including trailing path if you are putting it in sub folder or root website)
- DB_HOST - Put your database hostname here
- DB_PORT - Put your database port here if it does not default to 3306
- DB_DATABASE - Change it to your database name
- DB_USERNAME - Name of your database user
