QtAccounting

This is an application I created to get familiar with the Qt framework. It is designed for my own very specific usecase and not useful to anyone else.

Essentially, this is a GUI to edit the database defined in Database.hpp. The database file is fetched from S3 and re-uploaded when exiting the application.

Installation

1. Install the following packages:

   pacman -S --needed aws-sdk-cpp qtcreator
   

2. Install all the other stuff that I forgot to mention.

3. Setup an S3 bucket and create the following policy to grant access to it:

   {
       "Version": "2012-10-17",
       "Statement": [
           {
               "Sid": "VisualEditor0",
               "Effect": "Allow",
               "Action": [
                   "s3:PutObject",
                   "s3:GetObjectAcl",
                   "s3:GetObject",
                   "s3:ListBucket",
                   "s3:PutObjectAcl"
               ],
               "Resource": [
                   "arn:aws:s3:::${BUCKET_NAME}/*",
                   "arn:aws:s3:::${BUCKET_NAME}"
               ]
           }
       ]
   }

4. Create a configuration file at $HOME/.config/Asynts/Accounting-Debug.conf:

   [Receiver]
   Name=Max Musterman
   IBAN=AA00 0000 0000 0000 0000 00
   
   [AWS]
   Region=eu-central-1
   AccessKeyId=${ACCESS_KEY_ID}
   SecretKey=${SECRET_KEY}
   BucketName=${BUCKET_NAME}

   For production another configuraiton file needs to be created at $HOME/.config/Asynts/Accounting.conf.

Creating a Release

• Update Bundle/PKGBUILD.

  • Set version and build number.

  • Update link to .tar.gz.

  • Update checksum.

  • Build with makepkg and install with makepkg --install.

• Increment version in CMakeLists.txt.
