zureg

Dependencies

• cabal for building the Haskell codebase, or
• nix for managing cabal and building the docker image.

Building

cabal build

Configuring & running

zureg attempts to read a configuration file from zureg.json and /etc/zureg.json.

zureg.example.json contains a skeleton. Most importantantly, you'll want to configure database.connectionString to point to a postgres database with write access.

AWS

zureg uses AWS SES to send emails.

To be able to send email to the registrants you will need to move your account out of the sandbox. For instructions how to do it, follow: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/request-production-access.html

Tools

zureg-export

This exports all attendees to a JSON file. Usage:

stack exec zureg-export export.json

zureg-email

This emails all attendees using a mustache template. Usage:

stack exec zureg-email export.json template.txt statefile subject

statefile is any file where we can write emails to that have already been sent -- this way we can make sure no double emails are sent if when there are any issues if the program is killed our the SES API is being weird while sending.
