Installation

⚠️ Important ⚠️

This app is a plugin for Alliance Auth. If you don't have Alliance Auth running already, please install it first before proceeding. (see the official AA installation guide for details)

⚠️ You also want to make sure that you have the Discord service installed, configured and activated before installing this app. ⚠️

Step 1 - Install the app

Make sure you are in the virtual environment (venv) of your Alliance Auth installation. Then install the latest version:

pip install aa-fleetpings

Step 2 - Update your AA settings

Configure your AA settings (local.py) as follows:

• Add 'fleetpings', to INSTALLED_APPS

Step 3 - Finalize the installation

Copy static files and run migrations

Step 4 - Setup permission

Now you can setup permissions in Alliance Auth for your users. Add fleetpings | aa fleetpings | Can access this app to the states and/or groups you would like to have access.

Step 5 - Setup the app

Configuration

Use Doctrines from Fittings module

If you have the Fittings and Doctrines module installed, and your doctrines configured there, you don't have to re-build your doctrine list for this module. You can simply use the doctrines you already have configured in the Fittings and Doctrines module.

To do so, add the following to your local.py:

## AA Fleet Pings
AA_FLEETPINGS_USE_DOCTRINES_FROM_FITTINGS_MODULE = True
