ESNcard Validity Checker

A plugin for Pretix allowing automated validation of ESNcard numbers.

Installation

Make sure to run from Pretix's virtual environment:

sudo -u pretix -s
source /var/pretix/venv/bin/activate

Install the package and update the database:

pip3 install pretix-esncard
python -m pretix migrate
python -m pretix rebuild

Restart Pretix:

sudo systemctl restart pretix-web pretix-worker

For more information about plugin installation, see the Pretix documentation.

Usage

Setup

Activate the plugin from the organizer or event settings.

Go to Products > Questions and select "Create a new question"

• Question: "ESNcard number"
• Type: Text (one line)
• Products: Select all products with an ESNcard discount
• Check "required question"

Go to the Advanced tab

Internal identifier: esncard

[!NOTE] You must write exactly this identifier for the plugin to work.

Validation

The ESNcard number is validated against the ESNcard API during checkout and the customer is notified of any errors.

The validation fails if the entered ESNcard number:

• is not found
• is expired
• is unregistered (the user must register their card on esncard.org)
• is used several times in the same order (each person must have their own ESNcard)

Cloudflare bypass token

To avoid getting blocked by Cloudflare when sending many requests, you may ask the WPA of ESN International for a bypass token which you can configure in the global Pretix settings. You can access the global settings by enabling admin mode and look for the option in the bottom of the left sidebar.

Development

Setup

1. Make sure that you have a working pretix development setup, including a virtual environment. Running on Linux is highly recommended as you may face issues with Windows.

2. Activate the virtual environment (from the pretix repository, not here!).

3. cd to the pretix-esncard repository and run python3 setup.py develop. This will install the plugin on the Pretix instance.

4. Go back to the pretix repository. cd into src and run python3 manage.py runserver.

5. Enable the plugin in the event settings.

In VS Code configure Python: Select Interpreter and point it to path/to/pretix/env/bin/python. Never create a virtual environment within pretix-esncard, it will lead to errors.

Linting

This plugin has CI set up to enforce a few code style rules. To check locally, you need these packages installed:

pip install flake8 isort black

To check your plugin for rule violations, run:

black --check .
isort -c .
flake8 .

You can auto-fix some of these issues by running:

isort .
black .

To automatically check for these issues before you commit, add the following to .git/hooks/pre-commit:

#!/bin/bash

source /home/user/pretix/env/bin/activate  # Adjust this to the path on your computer
for file in $(git diff --cached --name-only | grep -E '\.py$' | grep -Ev "migrations|mt940\.py|pretix/settings\.py|make>
do
  echo $file
  git show ":$file" | flake8 - --stdin-display-name="$file" || exit 1 # we only want to lint the staged changes, not an>
  git show ":$file" | isort -c - | grep ERROR && exit 1 || true
done

Translations

Update translatable strings:

make localegen

After translating the strings in the .po files, run

make

to generate the binary .mo files.

Add a new language by copying the file structure. LANGUAGE_CODE/LC_MESSAGES/django.po. Make sure Language: in the header contains the correct language code.
