# Warning! This project is deprecated.



I've been unable to maintain this project for some while now due to *not enough time*™. Some folks over at my university, where I also initially developed dudel, have taken the time to rewrite it using django, boosting the performance and generally improving the code base. A lot of dudel lives on in that new rewrite, [BitPoll](https://github.com/fsinfuhh/Bitpoll). Go check it out! :)

# Dudel



A simple group scheduling and poll tool, following the example of doodle.com and similar services.



## Setup



Make a virtual environment, activate it, run:



    pip install -r requirements.txt



This needs the development packages of some libraries, in particular: libpq, libldap, libsasl2.

Make sure you also have `scss` and `coffee` (from coffeescript) installed.



Copy `config.py.example` to `config.py` and adjust your settings.

You will probably want to change `DEBUG`, `TESTING` and `MAIL_DEBUG` for production environments!



    cp config.py.example config.py

    $EDITOR config.py



Create a test database:



    make seed



Create an empty database:



    make init



Compile the translations:



    make i18n-compile



Run the testserver:



    make run



## Migration



**WARNING!** While as a database backend all SQL-Alchemy supported databases

should work, migration is only available for PostgreSQL. This is due to complicated

upgrade tasks that require database-specific SQL commands, and me being too lazy to

implement many of them. For development, you probably want to use SQLite anyway and

throw away those databases all the time (`make seed`).



## Translating



Please translate. Run



    make i18n-update



then copy/edit translations files (in `dudel/translations`), then compile them with



    make i18n-compile



## Times



- ALL database times are UTC

- generated times are simply using datetime.utcnow()

- user-entered times are always converted from the user's Timezone

- Polls save the timezone of the user that created it

- Poll timezone can be changed, or set to "Transform to user's timezone"

- Poll view uses poll timezone, if it differs from user timezone, a warning is displayed

- Editing the poll's times uses the poll timezone, NOT the user's timezone



### Migration



- Convert user-entered times (due date, poll times) to UTC, assume they were default timezone

- Add timezone field to poll

- Add timezone field to user
