Indico shell scripts

Hi,

Is it possible to create indico shell scripts? We’ve been asked to implement account management so that any stale accounts are first blocked and later deleted (or at least anonymized).

I can do this interactively with indico shell, but it would work better if I could create a script that could then be run periodically.

Or is this functionality already in indico?

Thanks,

Chris

Best to make it a plugin. That way you can use the indico task scheduler etc.

Alternatively, if you just want a small script, you can just wrap it like this:

from indico.core.db import db
from indico.web.flask.app import make_app


def main():
    # your code here
    db.session.commit()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    with make_app().app_context():
        main()

Thanks. And thanks for responding so quickly.
