aa-freight
An Alliance Auth app for running a freight service.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you run an Alliance Auth instance and need freight service management. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and integrates cleanly with the Alliance Auth ecosystem. However, verify the license terms in the repository first, as the package metadata does not declare a license. Requires Celery and ESI configuration, so it is not suitable for standalone use.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires an active Alliance Auth installation with Django 4.2 or 5.2, Python 3.10+, and Celery configured for background task execution.
- ESI scopes esi-universe.read_structures.v1 and esi-contracts.read_corporation_contracts.v1 must be added to your Eve Online app.
- Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution.

What it is and what it does
aa-freight is a Django application plugin for Alliance Auth that automates the operation of a central freight/courier service for Eve Online alliances and corporations. It provides contract tracking, pricing management across multiple routes, and reward calculation for freight pilots. The app pulls contract data from the Eve Online ESI API via a designated character handler and displays outstanding contracts with compliance checks against configured pricing.
The package integrates Discord webhooks for real-time notifications to pilots about new contracts and to customers about contract status updates. It includes a statistics dashboard showing performance metrics by route, pilot, and customer, and supports both English and German language interfaces. Core functionality depends on Celery for periodic contract synchronization and requires Django 4.2 or 5.2 running on Python 3.10 or later.
Use it for
- Run a centralized freight service for an alliance by defining routes, pricing, and automatically notifying pilots of new contracts via Discord.
- Calculate correct courier rewards using the built-in calculator to ensure pricing compliance across multiple bidirectional routes.
- Monitor contract status and performance metrics across pilots and customers to optimize freight service operations.
- Send automated Discord notifications to contract issuers tracking the status and development of their courier contracts.
- Manage freight operations outside the alliance structure by configuring the app for corporation-run services with custom permissions.
