What it is and what it does
aa-contacts is a Django plugin for AllianceAuth that provides a web interface for tracking standings and contacts across alliances and corporations in EVE Online. It allows users with appropriate permissions to add alliances or corporations, view their contacts and standings, edit notes, and trigger manual contact updates. The plugin integrates with AllianceAuth's permission system and can optionally integrate with the Secure Groups plugin to create smart filters based on standings—allowing administrators to grant access to users or groups based on their character's standings with specific corporations or alliances.
The plugin runs on Django 5.x, depends on allianceauth, django-esi (for EVE API access), and django-ninja (for API endpoints), and uses Celery for scheduled background updates of contact data. It supports Python 3.10 through 3.13 and is marked as production-stable. Installation is straightforward for existing AllianceAuth deployments, requiring only pip installation, configuration in local.py, and database migrations.
Use it for
- Track standings and contact lists for multiple corporations or alliances in a single dashboard.
- Grant or restrict user access based on their character's standings with specific in-game entities via Secure Groups.
- Maintain shared notes on contacts and standings for alliance leadership and diplomacy teams.
- Automate periodic synchronization of contact data from EVE's ESI API on a schedule.
