About

Pretix is a open source ticketing system (e.g. sell tickets for conferences).

Pretix logo

The plugin tests new tickets if they contain pretix order codes. If so, it does the following:

  • Fetch data from the pretix api (order, attendees and voucher)
  • Add data to customfields
  • Set requestor mail based on attendee

For every attendee a new ticket is created and linked to the order ticket (top ticket). If needed, the tickets can be moved to other queues.

Scrip Configuration

Scrip configuration

Template

We pull the following data out of a order mail:

company
street
city
zip
email
country
name
order
event
twitter
voucher
date_from
date_from_iso
date_to
date_to_iso

This field names can be used in a template to fill ticket fields:

{
  'event'   => 'cf.Event',
  'name'    => 'cf.Name',
  'email'   => 'ticket.requestor',
  'twitter' => 'cf.Twitter',
  'company' => 'cf.Firma',
  'voucher' => 'cf.Sponsoringcode',
  'order'   => 'cf.Order'
}

The prefix cf means custom fields by name or id, ticket means direct ticket attributes. Only requestor is implemented at the moment.

Technical note

The plugin uses Cache::FileCache to cache api requests (orders, vouchers) which expires after one hour. To purge the cache you can remove the caching directory:

rm -rf /tmp/FileCache/pretix/
