Foodsoft

Web management for non-profit food cooperatives

Please note: TurnKey Foodsoft is not currently available from the TurnKey software appliance library.

The TurnKey Linux Foodsoft appliance is not currently available due to some technical issues - namely outdated dependencies. Once that is resolved, we hope to revive this appliance. Thank you for your understanding.

In the meantime, please consider our other Business Management appliances.

Foodsoft is web-based software for managing non-profit food coops that handles product cataloging, ordering, accounting, and job scheduling. A food cooperative is a group of people that buy food from suppliers of their own choosing. Members order their products online and collect them on a specified day to form a collective do-it-yourself supermarket.

Issues

The Foodsoft appliance includes all the standard features in TurnKey Core, and on top of that:

  • Foodsoft
  • Two versions: standard and foodcoop-adam (choose on first boot).
  • SSL support out of the box.
  • Includes Phusion Passenger for Apache web server (mod_rails).
  • Postfix MTA (bound to localhost) to allow sending of email (e.g., password recovery).
  • Webmin modules for configuring Apache2, MySQL and Postfix.
