Project to build a management system for Milton Keynes Makerspace.
This project is not currently meant for external use, it is currently experimental and written as such. It is not intended for adaptation at this stage, and to do so will require knowledge of Django, if you do so it is of your own accord. Current versions are not production ready, and will require secret key changes etc.
Basic Profiles for member management.
Various front end user links, ie links to external forms.
Asset Register managed using admin interface. Asset list printed to member accessible page.
Status page - Pull info about various services in the space and display their status
Back End Tool for label printing, currently experimental using PyLabels. Currently plan to have a form which sends data to a node, connected to the label printer for local printing of labels.
Django Project - Web App - access to member tools, database management etc.
Membership Management - Databases, emails, payments, allow members to make accounts etc. Member Tools, Forms ie broken tools, Storage Label Generation
Automation Control tools - light controller, temp controller etc.
Access Control Management - Equipment Status - Add/Remove permissions etc Equipment Nodes
Octoprint - Manage user accounts across all Octoprint instances using Octoprint REST API - Add an account, change passwords etc. Have octoprint mirror django accounts? Disply statistics from Octoprint/associated, eg Power consumption, Print time, use status etc.
Data & Statistics - View current states about the space etc.
MACScanner integration?
Docker/Portainer MQTT PostgreSQL Automation Scripts (NodeRed, straight NodeJS/Python etc) Access Control
Manage Octoprint backups/data
Ensure recent version of Python 3 and Pip. Python Virtual environment accessed at
SOCS\Django\venv\Scripts\activate.bat In development mode, SQLite is used, therefore tables must be created.
py manage.py makemigrations Check for table changes
py manage.py migrate Create/update the database.
You will also need to create a new superuser to access the Django administrative functions.
py manage.py createsuperuser
This will ask you to create credentials, then you will be able to log in to /admin
