Mar 22 2016

• Revamp of the Human Resources Application and Management System

  • a completely untested conversion script exists. If you want to view your old models, contact Adarnof to try it out
• Moved Error Handling for the API Keys to the API Calls to better handle API server outages
• Removed the infamous database update task
  • implemented a receiver to update service groups as they change

To remove the database update task from the scheduler, navigate to your django admin site, and delete the run_databaseUpdate model from the periodic tasks. Restart celery.

Mumble now uses an ICE authenticator. This requires an additional dependency. Please install libbz2-dev and libssl-dev prior to running the update script:

sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev libssl-dev

Now run the update script.

Old Mumble accounts are incompatible. Users will need to recreate them (sorry). To clear the old ones out:

python manage.py shell
from services.tasks import disable_mumble
disable_mumble()

To set up the authenticator, follow the Mumble setup guide.

Optional: you can delete the entire mumble database block in settings.py

Nov 5th 2015

On November 5th we performed two major pulls from Adarnof’s and Kaezon’s forks.

Improvements include:

• ability to deploy for either corp or alliance
• improved logic for member status transitions
• group syncing to TS3
• template corrections

Migration to the new version is a bit trickier because of changes to settings.py - it's easiest to archive the old one, make a copy of the new template, and repopulate it.
