Snippet manager
Snippet manager (abbr. Snipman) is a cloud repository to store various information (snippets) in text format. Snippets are grouped by snippet type. Snippets can be used as:
Configurations
Various information in JSON format (such as button menus)
Snippet manager operations
Create and change snippets
Snippets can be created either manually on the Snippet manager portal or be exported from other programs, for example using the Centara server integration as explained below.
If a change is later made to an existing snippet the change is tracked and a newer version of the snippet is created. Older versions of the same snipped will still remain available.
Use
Once texts have been added, applications can request their content via restful endpoints; either an endpoint that always returns the latest version or an endpoint that directs to a specific version of the snippet.
Integration with Centara
Integration
Centara server has taken the first step towards an integration to the Snippet manager. The things that can be exchanged with Snipman at this moment are:
POS layouts
POS menus
POS receipts
Centara server configurable endpoints
Data processing rules
Report definitions
Test data, for example for sales demos
Example
Pre-existing button layouts can now be exported into Snipman and upon arrival will become available for all other Centara server users.
Other Centara servers can also find menu-snippets there to show and optionally import for their own use:
