-@chapter Introduction
-
-The back-office Web service allows a merchant to check on the status
-of their Taler transactions.  Merchants can check if and when they were
-paid by a wire transfer for coins deposited at the exchange.  Also, given
-a wire transfer they have received, they can ask which Taler transactions
-correspond to the wire transfer.
-
-This manual guides merchant system administrators through the
-installation and configuration of this Web service.
-
-@node Installation
-@chapter Installation
-
-The back-office Web service code is available at
-@code{git://taler.net/backoffice}.  The application can be installed
-in a GNU-ish fashion.
-
-@example
-# Get the code:
-$ git clone git://taler.net/backoffice
-
-# Bootstrap and configure
-$ cd backoffice
-$ ./bootstrap
-# This step will check if the system is ready to
-# allow the installation.
-$ ./configure --prefix=<PREFIX>
-$ make install
-@end example
-
-Note that to make the application work @code{<PREFIX>/bin} must be
-included in the @code{$PATH}, and
-@code{<PREFIX>/lib/python3.5/site-packages/} in @code{$PYTHONPATH}.
-
-
-@node Configuration
-@chapter Configuration
-
-The following information must be provided in the configuration: on which
-address the backend should serve the Web site, which currency is used,
-and which merchant backend this Web service will work with.
-
-The merchant backend is an important agent, as it is responsible for
-returning information about transactions and wire transfers.  The
-backoffice Web service is merely a frontend for it.  A separate
-manual (available at
-@url{https://docs.taler.net/merchant/backend/html/manual.html})
-describes the installation and configuration of the merchant backend.
-
-Assuming the reader is familiar with configuration in Taler (if not, read:
-@url{https://docs.taler.net/exchange/html/taler-exchange.html#Configuration-format}),
-a working configuration example is the following one:
-
-@example
-
-[taler]
-# will be EUR, USD, or whatever currency the merchant
-# works with.
-currency = KUDOS
-
-# each back-office Web service is associated with a "frontend
-# name": this name instructs the application which configuration
-# section is going to be read.  Thus <name> is the "frontend name"
-# and must be specified on the command line via the "--frontend"
-# option.  See the 'Run' chapter for more details on launching the
-# application.
-[backoffice-<name>]
-
-# This option sets the way the backoffice communicates
-# when it is instructed to operate via UWSGI.  Therefore,
-# <how> can be: TCP or UNIX.  If TCP is given, then the
-# additional UWSGI_PORT option becomes necessary.
-uwsgi_serve = <how>
-
-# those options will be read if the Web site is served via
-# WSGI.
-uwsgi_unixpath_mode = 660
-uwsgi_unixpath = /path/to/backoffice-<name>.uwsgi
-uwsgi_unixmode = 666
-
-# If UWSGI_SERVE were set as 'TCP', then the following option
-# would have been necessary.  It instructs the backoffice service
-# about which TCP port should be listened on, to communicate over
-# UWSGI.
-# uwsgi_port = 8080
-
-# this option will be read if the Web site is served via
-# HTTP.
-http_port = 5959
-
-# specifies which merchant backend is going to be used.
-backend = http://backend.test.taler.net/
-
-# Informally speaking, each instance points to both a private
-# key that can sign proposals and a bank account that can receive
-# wire transfers by some exchange.
-
-# Here, <instance_i> is just a string (with no spaces) that will
-# make the referenced instance be traceable by the back-office Web
-# application.
-
-instances = <instance_1> <instance_2> ..
-@end example
-
-@node Launching the backoffice
-@chapter Launching the backoffice
-
-The following example shows how to run the Web service.
-
-@example
-# such invocation will work only if the configuration contains
-# a section called "[backoffice-myshop]" which looks like the
-# example above.
-
-# As of serving, the Web site will be available via HTTP, at the
-# port specified in the configuration option "http_port", at localhost.
-
-$ taler-merchant-backoffice --frontend myshop serve-http
-@end example
-
-Other options, such as those to serve the site via WSGI, are explained
-in the man page and can be listed using the @code{--help} argument.
