I have a point of sale application which is developed using a code igniter frame work,which works only in chrome browser, I have two buttons in my application
send to kitchen
pay BILL
when I click sent to kitchen button a print should be come in printer which is kept in kitchen,
when I click pay BILL a bill should be come from the printer which is kept in cashier table.
I will be OK to do this with any libraries or google chrome API's
you can do this by sending a text file (most POS printer support text file printing) to the attached network printers (IP address and port).
you can use exec() function of PHP for that.
go through the thread below for the clue

just connect the thermal printer with the expected Computer from where you want to print.
And write code for print <br>
window.print()
alter you may use the Keyboard shortcut CTRL+P for the print invoice.
I'm using IFTTT to send a Google Assistant message to my Windows application via Drop Box. If I say "[keyword] [message]" (for example: "Computer: Play Game of Thrones Season 2 Episode 4") IFTTT will write the text translation of [message] to a file on drop box that my application monitors and from there I can read the [message] and act on it.
What I would like to be able to do is send a reply back to the device that sent the message... For example if I tell my phone to have my computer start a movie on my computer and for whatever reason my app can't find the movie I want to be able to communicate that back to the device that originally sent the message, whether that be my cell phone or tablet or Google Home smart speaker.
I know there is probably no official way to do this but i'm looking for creative solutions (like the one I use to get the message in the first place)... anything at all that works even if it involves multiple third-party services.
There's no good way to send back an acknowledgement through the IFTTT integration. You'd need to build your own Action which would use something like push notifications to communicate between your local device and a cloud-based webhook.
Short Version:
I want to open any specific Outlook email from my Java app, either locally through the Outlook app or through the website on a browser. I already have the email information like folder, message ID, UID, sender, receiver, etc but not the email ID used in the URL of the Outlook website. Does anyone know of a way to do either of these things through Java?
Long Version:
I'm creating a software for my company in Java that has a built-in email client for Outlook emails so the emails can be linked with jobs in various ways. So far I've been able to make good progress with the email client section in terms of displaying a list of emails and being able to display a chosen email, but recently I've realized creating a GUI for an email editor (keeping track of reply chains, dragging in images for inline attachments, etc) is quite the gargantuan task to do on my own(JavaFX's HTML Editor could use a lot of work).
My band-aid solution for now is to have my program open the chosen email up through either:
Some (Windows 10) system command by calling the Outlook desktop application to show the email by some sort of ID (maybe UID?). I know on some level that this is possible because our company has an old program written in C# that can indeed do that.
Opening up the system's default browser with a link to "https://outlook.office365.com/mail/folder_name/id/insert_id_here". This is my preferred solution.
Here are my problems with each option so far:
There doesn't seem to be any resource I could find that provides an answer to this. The closest I can find are threads that explain how to open the default mail application with options to pre-populate to/from/subject/body sections (not to mention you can't pre-populate the body with anything besides text! So much for reply/forward messages with HTML formatting and attachments!). Another problem is that the old program I mentioned displays emails by finding the Outlook application's files (presumably the local OST file). I have no idea how the old program's able to call Outlook to show emails and even then, there's a chance that there's no Java equivalent. I, however, am using JavaMail to load up my mail, as I think it's better to talk to the Outlook mail server to fetch/push mail updates rather than wait for the Outlook app to sync up. This creates a problem because even if I knew how to call Outlook, my application may be more up to date than the Outlook app (especially if Outlook is not already open) and if call before Outlook updates, Outlook wouldn't be able to show it.
Again, I can't seem to find a resource for explaining these URL IDs. They're not the same as the mail's UIDs, and they don't seem to be anywhere in the mail's contents when grabbing mail through JavaMail. The most I was able to get from research was that they were called "long IDs", as they were just long strings (seemingly non-sequential) but that might've just been a made-up name from the article as I've found no other references to it. There's a chance that they could be some sort of encoded UID but I didn't see any note of JavaMail having to decrypt to get UIDs in the documentation. I doubt I'd be able to make any more progress with this option, but if there's a solution similar to this (perhaps some sort of script that opens up Outlook online, searches by some identifier, like body contents, and pulls up the first result? Idk much about browser scripts) I'd be happy to hear it.
So I want to know how a quickreply toast can be sent to the right person and when you click on it, it goes to the specific person.
Example 1:
Person A texts me, I pull down on the interactive notification and type my response and it gets processed by the background process. How does the applications know that my response goes to Person A. is there an attribute in the XML of the toast that can be a variable, like the phone number?
Example 2:
Person A posts a picture on my facebook, I click on the notification and it takes me to the page on facebook. Again is there an XML variable with a URL of it or something?
You can download this Microsoft Windows UWP sample, where you can see what code they use to manage notifications.
I think that you need Toast notifications:
Toast notifications are small pop ups that appear on the screen for few seconds. They convey messages and can be customized to even play different sounds. New to Windows 10 are actionable toasts where a user has a choice to interact with the notifications by use of a button, for example.
I am unable to cast with my styled receiver from chrome browser.
I have an unpublished styled receiver chromecast app. The "preview" button works fine. My testing device is registered with status "ready for testing". The send serial number checkbox is checked from my android app (OS X app never finds chromecast, so I cannot verify with another app).
Setting the app ID to be my application ID (which seems to be an 8 digit number in the SDK developer console) throws a session error when I try to connect. Changing this back to the default app ID has success. I registered a second identical application and tried with that ID as well.
What could have gone wrong? I am unable to connect to the debugging console, but I read on SO that you need a custom receiver (not styled receiver) to connect.
I am able to connect to the custom receiver as defined in this sample receiver as well.
Is there no testing for styled receivers?
Note that there is one oddity about my setup, and that is that the chromecast is connecting to a wifi network that has been shared by my macbook, not a normal router.
You don't need a custom receiver to be able to debug, using your own Styled receiver is adequate (you basically need to have your own App Id). I would suggest you double check your serial number; take a photo and enlarge that to make sure it was read correctly.
Solution was use a router instead of sharing internet access via Wi-Fi from my macbook. Re-checked the send serial number box, restarted device and everything worked.
