Realtime queue management system for busy public offices – includes customer kiosk, agent screen and waiting room display using Web Speech API

Print some tickets from the kiosk page, then take those customers from the agent screen – open the display screen in a new tab to see those customers get called

Works best in Chrome (doesn’t everything?)

Static Site built with Nuxt.js, Firebase and Buefy

Setup Firebase

  1. Create a Firebase project
  1. Go to Authentication and set Email/password as your sign-in method
  1. Create a Storage bucket (for adverts on the display screen)

Go to Firebase console > authentication and create some email user accounts to access the app. Add the below rules, and include the user ID from any accounts you created that you want to modify settings, or upload images to the display screen.

Database rules

service cloud.firestore {
  match /databases/{database}/documents {
    match /{document=**} {
		 allow write: if request.auth.uid == 'ADMIN USER ID HERE';
    }
    match /{collection}/{document=**} {
     allow read;
     allow write: if int(collection[0]) - int(collection[0]) == 0 && request.auth != null
    }
  }
}

Storage rules

service firebase.storage {
  match /b/{bucket}/o {
    match /{allPaths=**} {
      allow read;
      allow write: if request.auth.uid == 'ADMIN USER ID HERE';
    }
