<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Right, so we had a hackathon a couple
weeks ago during which I cleaned up the access and billing plugin
considerably. There's still an outstanding privilege escalation
issue I need to resolve before I'm comfortable sharing the code (I
don't want you jerks hacking Sector67, and this issue is only
under specific conditions you can't replicate), but expect it to
be available soon.<br>
<br>
The plugin is independent of the hardware, so you could use
whatever hardware you want and access the REST API to do stuff. At
Sector we're using Raspberry Pis with the LCD+Keypad Plate and
RFID reader. I'm rewriting those scripts to be a little more
robust and reliable and will release those soon, too.<br>
<br>
I'd be interested in a standard API. It seems everybody needs a
hardware part and a web-based part, and it'd be nice to have the
hardware options play nicely with any of the web-based options.
Especially since the API is where considerable security
vulnerabilities can exist and a group effort could mitigate a lot
of those.<br>

Then it gets cool. We built another plugin on

an RFID is swiped, the pi<br class="">

time (since the laser tube is a consumable).
