Introduction

This contains init_mod_waitlist.py which can be used to populate mod-waitlist datatables with sample waitlist reserves data.

Pre-Requisite: Mod-Waitlist Postgres Schema

In order for init_mod_waitlist.py to work properly, the datatables for mod-waitlist must be generated for the diku tenant. The datatables can be autogenerated by enabling mod-waitlist for the diku tenant through the Okapi gateway.

Further Explanation

Datatables for mod-waitlist are autogenerated when mod-waitlist is enabled for a given user (e.g. diku) through the following process:

1. An HTTP POST request to enable mod-waitlist for diku is sent to the Okapi gateway.
2. The Okapi gateway calls the /_/tenant endpoint of mod-waitlist.
3. The /_/tenant endpoint uses a template to autogenerate the postgres, tenant-specific schema for mod-waitlist.

Ingesting Mod-Waitlist Sample Data

Ingesting mod-waitlist sample data involves:

1. Running and enabling mod-waitlist through Okapi, in order to trigger the creation of the diku_mod_waitlist schema and courses/items/instructors tables.
2. Running init_mod_waitlist.py which will automatically add uuidv4 ids to the json objects and then insert them into the jsonb column of their corresponding postgres datatables.
