Installation

Requirements

AA Blueprints needs the app django-eveuniverse to function. Please make sure it is installed before before continuing.

Steps

Step 1 - Install the Package

Make sure you are in the virtual environment (venv) of your Alliance Auth installation. Then install the newest release from PyPI:

pip install aa-blueprints

Step 2 - Configure AA

Add 'blueprints' to INSTALLED_APPS in settings/local.py.
Add the following automated task definition:

CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE['blueprints_update_all_blueprints'] = {
    'task': 'blueprints.tasks.update_all_blueprints',
    'schedule': 10800, # 3 hours
}
CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE['blueprints_update_all_industry_jobs'] = {
    'task': 'blueprints.tasks.update_all_industry_jobs',
    'schedule': 3600, # 1 hour
}
CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE['blueprints_update_all_locations'] = {
    'task': 'blueprints.tasks.update_all_locations',
    'schedule': 43200, # 12 hours
}

Step 3 - Finalize App installation

Run migrations & copy static files:

python manage.py migrate
python manage.py collectstatic

Restart your supervisor services for Auth

Step 4 - Update EVE Online API Application

Update the Eve Online API app used for authentication in your AA installation to include the following scopes:

esi-assets.read_assets.v1
esi-assets.read_corporation_assets.v1
esi-characters.read_blueprints.v1
esi-corporations.read_blueprints.v1
esi-industry.read_character_jobs.v1
esi-industry.read_corporation_jobs.v1
esi-universe.read_structures.v1

Step 5 - Data import

Load EVE Online type data from ESI:

python manage.py blueprints_load_types
