Voucher interface for Captive Portal

This tool allows an administrator to manage a voucher system to get through the gateway.

It could be used in a community that wants to share an Internet connection and for that the user's pay a fraction each, but needs the payment from everyone. So the vouchers allows to control the payments via the control of the access to Internet.

Features

This are the currently implemented features:

• Runs directly from the OpenWRT/LEDE router: no need for extra hardware
• Integrates it's administration with LuCI
• Has a command-line interface

We have planned:

• Support for collaborative administration between multiple captive portals on the same network (multiple gateways)
• batch creation of vouchers
• accountability
• activity log

All planned features are accesible at: https://github.com/libremesh/voucher/issues

Prerequisites

This software assumes that will be running on a OpenWRT/LEDE distribution (because uses uci for config), and requires a captive portal with whom to talk to.

For now it is compatible just with Nodogsplash, but adding compatibility with others is on our roadmap.

Install

Not clear yet, but would be something like:

• add the libremesh software feed to opkg
• opkg install
• opkg install voucher
