# Turnpike

Self-hosted event attendee and volunteer management. One instance, one event.

Turnpike handles gate check-in, volunteer scheduling, and department coordination for events ranging from a single evening to a multi-day festival. It works offline — gate volunteers can check people in without a network connection and sync when connectivity returns.

## Features

- **Attendee management** — CSV import (CrowdWork/Zeffy auto-detected), party-size tracking, search, check-in
- **Volunteer scheduling** — departments, shifts with capacity, conflict detection, reordering
- **Public volunteer signup** — self-registration form with email confirmation, auto-attendee linking
- **Volunteer kiosk** — token-authenticated self-service shift signup, no login required
- **Gate check-in** — full-screen UI with QR scanner, party check-in ("2/3 checked in"), volunteer dual check-in
- **Schedule** — create shifts, assign volunteers, manage assignments with conflict awareness
- **Role-based access** — admin, coordinator, volunteer lead (department-scoped), gate
- **Offline-first PWA** — installs on phones/tablets, full offline check-in with background sync
- **Real-time** — check-ins and changes broadcast live via SSE
- **SMTP email** — send volunteer token links directly or export CSV for bulk email platforms
- **Single binary** — Go backend embeds the frontend; no runtime dependencies

## Tech Stack

- **Backend:** Go, SQLite (WAL mode), JWT auth
- **Frontend:** Svelte 5, Dexie (IndexedDB), Vite
- **Deployment:** single static binary — no CGO, no external database

## Quick Start

```sh
# Build (frontend + Go binary)
make build

# Run (creates admin user on first startup)
TURNPIKE_ADMIN_USER=admin TURNPIKE_ADMIN_PASSWORD=changeme ./turnpike
```

Open `http://localhost:8180`.

See [docs/INSTALLATION.md](docs/INSTALLATION.md) for systemd, Docker, NixOS, and reverse proxy setup.

See [docs/USAGE.md](docs/USAGE.md) for detailed workflow documentation.

## Development

**Prerequisites:** [Nix](https://nixos.org) + [direnv](https://direnv.net), or Go 1.24+ and Node.js 18+ installed manually.

```sh
git clone <repo-url>
cd turnpike
direnv allow   # activates Go + Node.js via flake.nix
```

**Two-terminal dev setup:**

```sh
# Terminal 1 — Go API server
go run . --db dev.db

# Terminal 2 — Vite dev server (proxies /api to :8180)
cd frontend && npm install && npm run dev
```

The Vite dev server runs on `:5173` and proxies `/api` requests to the Go server on `:8180`.
