The code source behind fossbill.org.
make instance/config.toml # Prepare the config, you may edit it
make venv-dev # Will prepare and install dependencies in venv
venv/bin/flask --app fossbill db upgrade head # Prepare and migrate the database
make run # Run the server
python -m venv venv
venv/bin/pip install fossbill waitress
venv/bin/pip install psycopg2-binary # if you use postgres
Configure the instance
mkdir -p venv/var/fossbill-instance/
curl -o venv/var/fossbill-instance/config.toml https://git.sr.ht/~stacyharper/fossbill/blob/main/config.example.toml
Then edit this config.toml and setup the secret and database string.
Then migrate using:
venv/bin/flask --app fossbill db upgrade head
Running the server is as simple as:
venv/bin/flask --app fossbill run
# or
venv/bin/waitress-serve --listen=127.0.0.1:5554 --call 'fossbill:create_app'
But you should rather setup a system daemon, and a proxy using nginx. Have a look at the contrib/ folder.
