Dancecard

This is an algorithm to solve the "driving trip" problem:

• n cars
• 2n drivers
• s sessions
• In each session, 2 drivers pair up per car
• We want to optimise for:
  • Everyone driving each car roughly the same number of times
  • Everyone driving with everyone else evenly
  • Minimising repetition - e.g. driving same car or with same person in nearby sessions

Build instructions

dancecard.py should run directly as long as you have pyyaml and paho-mqtt installed. See those links for installation instructions.

To build the Docker images, run ./build (you may need to do this under sudo if you haven't given your user docker perms). You may want to edit the build script to change the docker repo user away from t0rx.

The build script should automatically detect if you're building on a Raspberry Pi and switch to Dockerfile-rpi rather than Dockerfile. This depends on a couple of base images I maintain, but could easily be made standalone.

Enjoy,
