Receipt Print with GUI using Django

In this article, we will guide you through creating a Recipe Print GUI. To achieve this, we first establish a login system, allowing sellers to create accounts through registration and subsequent login. Once logged in, we provide a straightforward form where sellers input the name, price, and quantity of materials. After clicking the “Add” button, the system calculates the total by multiplying the price and quantity, and the sum is displayed in a table at the bottom. Sellers can conveniently manage their data by accessing options to delete or update entries with a single click. When ready, they can generate bills effortlessly by clicking the “Generate Bill” button. Finally, sellers can log out with a simple click on the “Logout” button.

To install Django follow these steps.

Starting the Project Folder

To start the project use this command

django-admin startproject core
cd core

To start the app use this command

python manage.py startapp home

Now add this app to the ‘settings.py’

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    "django.contrib.admin",
    "django.contrib.auth",
    "django.contrib.contenttypes",
    "django.contrib.sessions",
    "django.contrib.messages",
    "django.contrib.staticfiles",
    "home",
]

Setting Necessary Files

models.py: This Django model defines a Receipt with fields for user association, name, price, quantity, and total. It includes a foreign key to the User model and sets default values for the fields.

Python3

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User

class Receipt(models.Model):
    user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True, blank=True)
    name = models.CharField(max_length=100, default='something')
    price = models.IntegerField(default=0)
    quantity = models.IntegerField(default =0)
    total = models.IntegerField(default=0)

views.py: The functions in the view file collectively build a Django web application for managing receipt data, user accounts, and generating PDFs.

Python3
