Scrip

Spec

How a period is printed.

Eight chapters. Start with the book, then meters, then the feed you already have.

A printed Scrip specification binder open on a fluorescent desk, ballpoint in the gutter.

Start

  • Introduction

    What Scrip is, what it refuses, and how a book is supposed to feel.

  • Getting started

    Open a specimen book, read a stub, and decide what you will replace.

  • Installation

    Run the template locally with pnpm. There is no database to provision.

  • Configuration

    Brand tokens, type, and the few environment values the template reads.

The book

  • Meters

    Name the unit, set the rate, print the rounding rule on every stub.

  • Stubs

    Each stub is a tear-off line. Quantity, rate, amount, tax. Nothing collapsed.

  • Feeds

    CSV, warehouse, or append-only events. Closed periods do not mutate.

  • Closing a period

    Feeds in, stubs printed, a name on the cover. The calendar does not close the book.
