aa-shop 0.1.1

A public asset shop plugin for Alliance Auth.

aa-shop

An Alliance Auth plugin that lets registered auth members run a publicly available shop stocked from their own (or their corporation's) assets.

Features

• Members create and manage personal shops; authorized users manage corporation shops.
• A member back-office at /shop-backoffice/ (lists your shops, create/edit/delete).
• Each published shop gets a public storefront at /shop/<slug>/ — no login required. Unpublished shops are visible only to their managers (preview).

Requirements

• Alliance Auth >= 5
• aa-memberaudit >= 5, installed and syncing

Installation

1. Install into your Alliance Auth virtual environment:

   pip install aa-shop
   

2. Add "shop" to INSTALLED_APPS in your auth project's local.py:

   INSTALLED_APPS += ["shop"]
   

3. Allow the storefront to expose its public (non-gated) views — required, or anonymous visitors are redirected to login:

   APPS_WITH_PUBLIC_VIEWS = ["storefront"]
   

4. Run migrations and collect static files, then restart your AA services:

   python manage.py migrate
   python manage.py collectstatic
   

5. EVE universe data: the Hulls picker lists ship types from django-eveuniverse, so make sure your eveuniverse data is populated with ship types (load the full EVE universe, or at least the Ship category, using eveuniverse's load tooling). Ships that aren't loaded won't be selectable.

6. Grant permissions (Django admin, or via groups/states):

   Permission	Grants
   shop.basic_access	Access the back-office; create/manage your personal shops
   shop.manage_corporation_shops	Create/manage your corporation's shops

Periodic price refresh

Hulls priced as % Jita Buy / % Jita Sell are refreshed by a Celery task every 6 hours. Add to your local.py:

from celery.schedules import crontab

CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE["shop_refresh_pct_prices"] = {
    "task": "shop.tasks.refresh_pct_prices",
    "schedule": crontab(minute=0, hour="*/6"),
}
CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE["shop_refresh_all_stock"] = {
    "task": "shop.tasks.refresh_all_stock",
    "schedule": crontab(minute=0),   # hourly
}

Stock is recomputed from memberaudit assets (no ESI). Refresh on demand with python manage.py shop_refresh_stock (--async to enqueue the per-shop tasks).

The task uses the public ESI market endpoint (no token) at low priority (override with SHOP_TASKS_PRIORITY, 1=urgent .. 9=idle; default 7). Prices are best-of-book at Jita 4-4 (highest buy / lowest sell), the same as Janice.

To refresh on demand (e.g. after setting up %-pricing), run inline:

python manage.py shop_refresh_prices           # synchronous, prints results
python manage.py shop_refresh_prices --async    # enqueue Celery tasks instead

Usage

• Members: open Shop in the auth sidebar (/shop-backoffice/) to create a shop — set a slug, name, type (personal/corporation), and publish it.
• Public: share /shop/<slug>/; published shops are browsable by anyone.

Contributing

Design docs and implementation plans live in docs/superpowers/. The storefront stylesheet ships compiled (shop/static/shop/storefront.css); to rebuild it after changing storefront templates, use the standalone Tailwind v4 CLI + daisyUI (no Node required):

bash scripts/build-css.sh        # add --watch during development
