Goals
The Goal of the Information Services is to provide maintainable and clean tools for the use of the Uni Staff and its membership to ensure a pleasant experience with the myriad of out of game processes that must be done for an organization of this size.
We strive to produce in-house tooling that is easy to maintain and update, that lives inside our ecosystem and can easily be updated as needed even when the original author has long since moved on.
With the above statement in mind, currently this means developing light weight Alliance Auth Plugins for streamlining officer and member tasks in Auth
Tools
The information services team maintain the following EVE University tools:
We also ensure smooth running of the servers hosting the EVE University resources.
Tech Stack
We primarily develop in Python, for the Django Framework of which Alliance Auth is built on top of.
Joining the Information Services Team
Occasionally the Information Services Team needs assistance from experienced developers. They prefer to recruit members who are already active in other departments as 'specialists' to assist in coding and maintenance of the tools for that department.
When the Information Services Team is recruiting they will either advertise on the forum or approach people directly.
Ongoing Projects
Want to help? Here are some things we're working on:
- WHC Application Process and maintaining the ACLs that go into keeping Wormhole Assets safe
- SRP Tooling to streamline responses
- Intake and Progression application updates to reduce confusion in new members
- CSS updates to bring the templates and look of Alliance Auth into Bootstrap 5
- Leveraging Cogs for the discord integration with Auth to streamline notifications for staff
