# Claremont Makerspace Member Plumbing

This repo contains a set of scripts to sync data around for the Claremont MakerSpace. They primarilly revolve around pulling member data from [MembershipWorks](https://membershipworks.com/) and pushing it out to various systems at the Space.

## `passwords.py`

Most of the scripts require a `passwords.py` file, defining the usernames in passwords for various services. This file is not distributed in this repository, for obvious reasons, but here is an example:

```python
DOOR_USERNAME = "user1"
DOOR_PASSWORD = "password1"

MEMBERSHIPWORKS_USERNAME = "user2"
MEMBERSHIPWORKS_PASSWORD = "password2"

MEMBERSHIPWORKS_DB = {
    "database": "db_name_here",
    "user": "user3",
    "password": "password3"
}
```

## `doorUpdater.py`

Retrieves member information from MembershipWorks and pushes it out to the HID Edge Evo SOLO controllers that do access controll at the Space. Configuration lives in `config.yaml`.

## `ucsAccounts.py`

Retrieves member information from MembershipWorks and pushes it out to [UCS](https://www.univention.com/products/ucs/), which we use as a domain controller for the Windows computers at the Space.

## `sqlExport.py`

Retrieves account and transaction information from MembershipWorks, and pushes it to a MariaDB database for use in other projects. Schemas are defined (somewhat oddly, to be fair) in `tableMapping.yaml`.
