Customer

A customer and order management web app built with Django. Admins manage products, customers and orders from a dashboard, while customers sign in to track their own orders and manage their profile.

Features

• Role-based access: admin and customer groups, enforced with custom view decorators (admin_only, allowed_users, unauthenticated_user).
• Admin dashboard: overview of customers and orders, product listing, per-customer order history.
• Order management: create, update and delete orders, with status tracking (Pending, Out of Delivery, Delivered), notes and tags.
• Search & filtering: filter orders by status, product, customer and note text using django-filter.
• Customer portal: registration, login/logout, personal order list and account settings with profile picture upload.
• Signals: on registration, a Customer profile is created and the user is added to the customer group.
• Deployment ready: gunicorn + whitenoise with a Procfile for Heroku-style platforms.

Getting started

git clone https://github.com/alimohammad0816/Customer.git
cd Customer

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

export DJANGO_SECRET_KEY='change-me'   # optional for local dev
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py createsuperuser
python manage.py runserver

Then open http://127.0.0.1:8000/.

Create the admin and customer groups in the Django admin (/admin/) and assign users to them. Access to each page depends on the group.

Note: DEBUG is False in config/settings.py (production-style). Set it to True locally if you want Django to serve debug pages.
