Revision as of 01:53, 17 May 2015

Summary

ACServer is the access control server that is used by ACNodes (work it out!) to query weather the owner of a presented rfid card has access to the tool and what level of access he/she has. The codebase lives on our github repo.

TODO

All issues on the ascerver repository.
Code a web ui for adding tools/maintainers/nodes (mentar+levi?)

Current deployment

acserver:1234 current install, purpose built VM running on lamarr.
babbage:1234 legacy install only used by the 3-in-1 acnode, which was the first revision

Web UI improvement

Requirements

Authenticate the user (best done by extending the current member website codebase)
For users with no permissions:
- Look up the state of the tools and if they are currently in use
For users with normal permissions:
- All access that no permissions grant
For users with maintainer permissions:
- All access that normal permissions grant
- Review the log of people who have used the machine
- Mark the equipment out of order
- Assign new maintainers
- Temporarily suspend users from access to tools
ACServer maintainers
- All access that maintainer permissions grant
- Add new tools
