Invite F40 Release Party attendees on Pretix to Matrix room
Summary
Use this script to pull a list of Matrix IDs from Pretix to then send invites to the Matrix room.
Background
@NeilHanlon wrote this Python script to parse Matrix IDs from Pretix registrations for the F40 Release Party event. We can use that script to then invite registered guests to the Release Party. This will help encourage registration as a method to track engagement at our release parties.
So, before the party begins, we need to start inviting people to the party! The script will help us do this and save time from doing it by hand.
Details
- Pull a list of Matrix IDs from the Pretix event using the script.
- Clean the data and validate that all the data are actual Matrix IDs (i.e.
@username:server.name
). - Copy-paste the list of Matrix IDs as invites to the F40 Release Party from the Matrix room directly.
Outcome
We get the F40 Release Party started!
