outreach.mayfirst.org

​https://outreach.mayfirst.org is the civicrm home for May First / Peoples Link organizing and outreach. It is installed on rodolpho.mayfirst.org.

The site is live and the admin user exist the password is in the keyringer.

The drupal modules are handled via git: ​git://git.mayfirst.org/mfpl/outreach.git

The live code is checked out on rodolpho in /home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/include/outreach.git

In the web directory (/home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/web/), sites/all is symlinked to /home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/include/outreach.git/web/sites/all.

Hacking

If you want to hack:

• Checkout: gitosis@…:mfpl/outreach.git on your local machine
• Setup a local Drupal 7 instance in the web directory, creating both Drupal and CiviCRM databases named: mfpl_outre_drup and mfpl_outre_civi
• Copy civicrm.settings.php from the live site, changing the database passwords and paths
• Run the sync bash script to get up-to-date data in your local install

Synchronizing

The outreach.mayfirst.org CiviCRM database is synchronized with the red control panel membership data. It is a one-way sync from the control panel to CiviCRM. It happens in two parts:

• On hay.mayfirst.org, a cron job (/etc/cron.d/red-outreach-sync) executes /usr/local/sbin/mf-dump-membership-data, which places a copy of the membership dump data, in json format, into the home directory of /home/outreach-sync
• On rodolpho (where outreach.mayfirst.org lives) a cron job executes /home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/users/mfpl-outreach/sync-membership-data, which copies the json data over to rodolpho, and then executes:

  drush mfc-import-members --import-file=/home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/users/mfpl-outreach/membership-dumps/members.json
  drush mfc-import-contacts --import-file=/home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/users/mfpl-outreach/membership-dumps/contacts.json
  drush mfc-import-use-accounts --import-file=/home/members/mayfirst/sites/outreach.mayfirst.org/users/mfpl-outreach/membership-dumps/user-accounts.json
  

The drush commands are defined in the mfc drupal module - which is part of the git repo (see above).
