Using this for your own VATSIM website

czqo-core is licensed under the MIT License. You are free to use code from the repository within the reigns of that license.

However, if you wish to use czqo-core as a basis for your own VATSIM related website (e.g. an FIR), we humbly ask the following:

• You provide credit for major portions of this repository used to Gander Oceanic OCA with a link to this repository.
• You do not use the same public facing user interface or branding as the Gander Oceanic OCA website. This is important in ensuring that we maintain our brand identity. It is fine to keep admin-only user interfaces (e.g. the create news article form).

If you require assistance with some aspect of czqo-core, feel free to DM one of us on Discord or send an email. We cannot guarantee support.

Setup process

It's mostly basic Laravel setup, however these are the steps specific to CZQO:

.env file

The following values must be filled in the .env file

#If you want to send mail
MAILGUN_DOMAIN=
MAILGUN_SECRET=

#Channel IDs for Discord channels if you want them to work
DISCORD_WEB_LOGS=
DISCORD_GUILD_LOGS=

DIGITALOCEAN_SPACES_ENDPOINT=
DIGITALOCEAN_SPACES_REGION=

Database seeding

Run the migrations as normal (php artisan migrate). Then you need to run the seeders. Look in database/seeders and run each seeder through this command: php artisan db:seed --class=CLASSNAMEHERE

For example, PermissionsSeeder would be php artisan db:seed --class=PermissionsSeeder.

If you want to add extra permissions/roles, put them in a seeder.

Permissions

This site uses the Laravel Permissions package by Spatie. To give your user administrator permissions, do the following:

• Run the seeders.
• Login with the user.
• Go to the model_has_roles table in your database.
• Create a row where the model_id is the user's CID, model_type is App\Models\Users\User, and role_id is 1.
• Refresh on the website. You should now have administrator permissions.
