            SSLEngine on
                SSLCipherSuite !ADH:!DSS:!RC4:HIGH: 3DES: RC4
                SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
                SSLCertificateFile �rtificate_location%
                SSLCertificateKeyFile %key_location%
                SSLCertificateChainFile �rt_chain_location%
   
            <Directory %/your_install_dir%>

            # WSPROXY CONF
            ProxyRequests Off
            ProxyPreserveHost On
            <Proxy *>
                    Order deny,allow
                    Allow from all
            </Proxy>
            RewriteEngine On
            RewriteCond %{HTTP:Connection} Upgrade [NC]
            RewriteRule /(.*) ws://localhost:8080/$1 [P,L]
            ProxyPass        /socket.io http://localhost:8080/socket.io/
            ProxyPassReverse /socket.io http://localhost:8080/socket.io/
            <Location /socket.io>
                    Order allow,deny
                    Allow from all
            </Location>
       </VirtualHost>
   

   Note: Using plain http is not recommended.

2. Node.js installed along with the socket.io library

   For a Debian distro:

       sudo apt-get update
       sudo apt-get install nodejs && apt-get install npm
       cd %/your_install_dir%/api
       sudo npm install socket.io
   

1. Clone the latest WallacePOS release to %your_install_dir% if you haven't done so already. The installation dir must be your Apache document root directory!

2. Run composer install in your install directory to update PHP dependencies (you may need to install composer first).

3. Visit /installer in your browser & follow the installation wizard.

4. Login to the admin dashboard at /admin, from the menu go to Settings -> Utilities and make sure the feed server has been started successfully.

To deploy WallacePOS on dokku:

1. Install the dokku-apt plugin on your dokku host.

2. Fork the WallacePOS to a PRIVATE repo (IMPORTANT), edit /library/wpos/.dbconfig.json and fill in your own values.

   OR

   Use my dokku mysql plugin to create and link the database automagically.

3. Commit deploy in the usual manner.

4. Setup persistent storage by running:

   dokku storage:mount %APP_NAME% /var/lib/dokku/data/storage/%APP_NAME%:/app/docs

   WARINING: Failure to do so will lead to data loss during subsequent upgrades.

5. Access /installer/?install from the web browser to install the database schema & templates

6. Login to the admin dashboard at /admin using credentials admin:admin & change the default passwords in Settings -> Staff & Admins!
