Thank you guys for the answers. My earlier project has been a rasppi media center, and a raspi torrent seedbox conncted to a NAS. On both of this project I had great resources. I am very confident that this project is doable, but I still need some tips for specific tasks. I've listed the workflow of this project, with specific questions to each and hope some of you can point me in the right direction.I've already checked that most barcode scanners will sendt it directly to the pi as keyboard.The HID input can then be changed to the correct number by doing something like this.I've been reading about SQLite, do you guys think this database is suitable for this project? SQLite can be runned locally on the rasppi. I am open to other suggestions so please feel free.The input received should always be saved to a specific local text file or directly to the database. I think the best thing would have a script that runs in the background at all times, and when it receives input it would search the database to match the input, then post a +1 in the right table. How would you go forward to create a listen-script like this?I think this task is rather easy in theory. We would have to create a script which runs on a specific time on a specific day of the week. The script would search the database for all quantity changes and post the connected product to a file/or generate a email with all changes. Again, scripts are my biggest problem for this tasks.To send the lists to a specific notebook, It can be done very easy with the subject. If the subject is in example: @Shopping-list.Then the list from the database would be posted in the right notebook each time.
