The point of this project is to enable signing up for tilde.town via an ssh connection.
# town signup
The point of this command is to enable signing up for tilde.town via an ssh connection. It is designed to be run when `join@tilde.town` is SSH'd to.
It ought to work something like this:
## to-dos
```bash
ssh signup@tilde.town
<ascii art>
tilde.town
- [ ] finish this command
- [x] interactive guts
- [x] logging
- [ ] write answers to disk
- [ ] splash screen - put off
- [ ] easter egg commands - put off
- [ ] inactivity timer(?) - put off
- [ ] review tool
- [ ] iterate over answers
- [ ] accept
- [ ] notate
- [ ] reject
- [ ] send email with directions on key upload
- [ ] actual account creation
- [ ] accept key
- [ ] accept username
- [ ] create user
- [ ] backlog
- [ ] get a manual dump from psql of json
- [ ] convert into files in the review directory
a creature stands before you. what does it look like?
## configuration
> a floating gray cube
a calico cat with softly glowing eyes
a squid
something else
cube: you'd like to sign up for tilde.town, yes?
> yeah
nah
why should I?
you say, "yeah"
cube: by what name should i call you?
~cowcow________
cube: unfortunately, i already know someone by that name. what else can i call you?
~shelf_________
cube: excellent, hello ~shelf. have you been invited here by anyone i know?
> yes, i have an invite code
no
you say "yes, i have an invite code"
cube: great. please paste it and press enter:
_____________
It assumes, in `sshd_config`:
```
Match User join
ForceCommand /town/src/town/cmd/signup/signup
PubkeyAuthentication no
KbdInteractiveAuthentication no
PasswordAuthentication yes
PermitEmptyPasswords yes
DisableForwarding yes
```
...and so on.
and in `/etc/pam.d/sshd`:
TODO
```
auth [success=done default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so user ingroup join
```
- [ ] make signup user
- [ ] get dummy program to run as ssh handler
- [ ] tcell bootstrapping some kind of interactivity
- [ ] existing username check
- [ ] email validation
- [ ] collect responses
- [ ] create the signup request (on disk? db?)
- [ ] invite system support
## initial thoughts
I need a script for how this interaction should go. It should feel more organic and fluid than just filling out a form. It shouldn't, however, take more than 10 minutes to get through stuff. The end result is to collect:
- an email address
- how a user found out about the town
- if they have a referral from an existing member
- what interests them about the town
- any links to personal websites or social media
A given is that the applicant is interacting with a "host" that guides them through the process. Should there be more than one host?
How many rooms should there be? 1? more?
in terms of data collection, I intend to just save the transcript of their interaction instead of more structured data. The only real structured data are email and referral.
another idea/thought/dream:
the whole point of this is to spatialize a form. it's a form! a set of questions and corresponding textarea elements. but in order to trigger self reflection -- as well as a feeling of being seen by another (in a good way) -- i want to turn the form into a shape. i'm thinking about this like the room in Eclipse Penumbra:
(For the Hollow Head was drug paraphenalia you could walk into. The building itself was the syringe, or the hookah, or the sniff-tube)
so, spatialized, every room is a question. the rooms take shape as a linear script the user moves through by:
1. answering a question
2. executing a verb
and finally at the end, a verb to confirm submission.
