# About

Kronekeeper is an open source web application for documenting connection block wiring frames ('Krone Frames') and their jumpering details.

Kronekeeper can be used replace the KRIS software, once supplied by Clyde Broadcast,
which has been used by many major UK broadcasters to document their wiring. This
is now unsupported and unable to run on modern operating systems, so a replacement
is needed

In replacing KRIS, Kronekeeper also seeks to address some of its weaknesses:

* Multi-user access
* Different block types (e.g. ABS)
* More than 2 jumpers for a circuit (encountered in practice)
* Accessible from iPad or desktop web browser
* Import/Export in CSV or Spreadsheet formats
* Ability to insert, move, remove and relabel groups of blocks
* Full Changelog (additions, deletions or changes to the Krone frame)

# Design Principles

* Open source web application
* [GNU AGPLv3](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl.html) licensed
* Hosted on Github for ease of collaboration
* Responsive user interface for use on tablet or desktop computers
* Able to directly import legacy KRIS databases

# Deployment

## Hosted Solution

Kronekeeper provides a fully mananaged cloud-hosted solution for your wiring records, accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. Ideal for engineers on the move, travelling between sites or supporting multiple sites.

## Self-Hosted

Kronekeeper can be hosted on your own infrastructure as a private instance. Simply download and install the code from github onto a Linux host. Commercial support is available to deploy and manage this on your behalf.
