# Worblehat

## What?
|
|
|
|
Worblehat is a simple library management system written specifically for Programvareverkstedet.
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
|
|
Programvareverkstedet is a small community with many books and games. A simple web platform is needed to manage the library. We need to know who owns each item, if we can loan it out and where it is.
|
|
|
|
Programvareverkstedet har en rekke bøker, og en konstant tilstrøm av nye.
|
|
Teoretisk sett skal disse ryddes og kategoriseres jevntlig, men da dette ikke gjøres ofte nok kan det være et varig strev å finne ut hvor bøker står til enhver tid.
|
|
Styret har derfor tatt initiativ til å opprette et biblioteksystem for å systematisere bøkene.
|
|
Prosjektet har fått navn Worblehat etter en bibliotekar i Terry Pratchetts discworld serie.
|
|
Worblehatt har vært påbegynnt flere ganger opp gjennom historien uten å komme i noen form for funksjonell tilstand enda.
|
|
|
|
## How?
|
|
|
|
The application is split into frontend and backend. The frontend is written with react-scripts, and communicates with the backed through a REST api.
|
|
|
|
The backend is written in Flask, and uses an ORM(SQLAlchemy) to store the data in any kind of SQL database.

|
- [ ] Discussion
|
|
- [ ] Should this project run in a separate tty-instance on Dibblers interface, or should they share the tty with some kind of switching ability?
|
|
After some discussion with other PVV members, we came up with an idea where we run the programs in separate ttys, and use a set of large mechanical switches connected to a QMK-flashed microcontroller to switch between them.
|
|
- [ ] Workaround for not being able to represent items with same ISBN and different owner: if you are absolutely adamant about placing your item at PVV while still owning it, even though PVV already owns a copy of this item, please print out a new label with a "PVV-ISBN" for it |
