Wake and Surf Booksys

A booking and management tool small boat communities can use to schedule boat usage and simplify maintenance as well as accounting.

It comes with the following features:

• Boat Management Track engine hours, fuel consumption and maintenance logs.
• Session Management Create sessions, invite users to sessions, track time behind the boat and much more.
• Multi User Support with different roles such as Administrators, Members, Guests and flexible pricing models for different users.
• Accounting to track the finances of the boat community.

Installation

Prerequisites

It is strongly recommended to run the application behind a simple reverse proxy (nginx, apache, ...) to enforce https.

To have a simple deployment scenario it is suggested to run the application in a docker container as described below.

Setup

To run it on your local machine, follow these steps:

# build the application itself
docker build -t booksys_ui .

# build a sample backend database (official mysql 5.7)
cd docker/booksys_db
docker build -t booksys_db .

# start your deployment
cd ../prod
echo '' > config.php
docker-compose up -d

Go to http://localhost. You will be guided through the setup process.

Security Considerations

• Change passwords in docker/booksys_db/Dockerfile before building the container.
• Expose the application through a reverse proxy to enforce HTTPS.
• Restrict access to classes and config folders, in case you do not run the default docker containers.

Limitations

• Some minor configuration parameters can only be updated in the database directly (see configuration table).
• The setup should also work with mariaDB but this has not been tested.
• So far, no official payment system (paypal, ...) is integrated. Please get in contact with me in case this is required or feel free to submit a pull request.
• It is optimized for the use within a non commercial boat community. To allow guests to reserve slots, adjustments would be needed.
