Print emails on MQTT thermal receipt printer
$200-300 USD
Pago na entrega
I need a freelancer to build a web-based application that will check an email account then print new emails to an MQTT connected thermal printer.
In 2012 I developed a complete online ordering solution for a fast food takeaway. The biggest issue I had to overcome was how to have the orders automatically printed out at the takeaway premises as the staff did not have time to check online for new orders. Every order generated an email so I developed a Windows desktop application which checked a Gmail account every 30 seconds and instantly printed any new orders. To avoid printing of spam and other emails that were not orders, I put a unique filter code in the email headers then set the same filter in the desktop application.
Since developing this initial solution, I have been approached by a number of potential clients wanting something similar but who didn't have space for a computer and just wanted a standalone receipt printer which would connect by WiFi to a nearby router. Until recently, this wasn't really possible as there were no true standalone/cloud ready thermal receipt printers on the market but earlier this year, a company in Shenzhen launched the world's first MQTT thermal receipt printer. Last month I purchased one which I successfully connected to Azure's IoT Hub and using a test application, printed to the device.
Now I know the technology actually works, what I need is for a freelancer to build me a web-based version of the desktop application. What I mean by this is not try to change the code of desktop application but instead, build an internet application that has the same functionality as the desktop. My target is to have well over 100 printers installed at takeaways by the end of 2019 so the solution needs to scalable.
The freelancer needs to have very strong IoT and MQTT knowledge that's been applied in business applications. Strong English communication skills are also a requirement.
Finally, I suspect you will be interested to inspect software, videos and documentation that came with the printer and if you message me, I will give you a direct link to where you can find this.
