Your friendly manager of attendees at an event.

EventMan will help you handle your list of attendees at an event, managing the list of registered persons and marking persons as present.

Main features:

• quickly mark a registered person as an attendee.
• easy way to add a new person, if it's already known from a previous event.
• fast and simple way to add a completely new person.
• it's easy to import EventBrite CSV files.
• RESTful interface
• ability to run triggers to respond to an event (e.g. when a person is marked as attending to an event)

See the screenshots directory for some images.

Development

See the docs/DEVELOPMENT.md file for more information about how to contribute.

Technological stack

• AngularJS (plus some third-party modules) for the webApp
• Bootstrap (plus Angular UI) for the eye-candy
• Font Awesome for even more cuteness
• Tornado web as web server
• MongoDB to store the data

The web part is incuded; you need to install Tornado, MongoDB and the pymongo module on your system (no configuration needed). If you want to print labels using the print_label trigger, you may also need the pycups module.

Install and run

Be sure to have a running MongoDB server, locally. If you want to install the dependencies only locally to the current user, you can append the --user argument to the pip calls. Please also install the python-dev package, before running the following commands.

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
sudo python get-pip.py
sudo pip install tornado # version 4.2 or later
sudo pip install pymongo # version 3.2.2 or later
sudo pip install pycups # only needed if you want to print labels
git clone https://github.com/raspibo/eventman
cd eventman
./eventman_server.py --debug

Open browser and navigate to: http://localhost:5242/

If you store SSL key and certificate in the ssl directory (default names: eventman_key.pem and eventman_cert.pem), HTTPS will be used: https://localhost:5242/

Authentication

By default, authentication is required; default username and password are admin and eventman. If you want to completely disable authentication, run the daemon with --authentication=off
