Bank of Skyfall, D&D Edition

This is currently a glorified shell script that functions like an interactive CLI application and uses a PostgreSQL database.

Let's get a couple things, that I know I am going to hear, out of the way first:

Will you make a MySQL version?

No.

You should use SQLite. Postgres is way overkill for something like this.

Yes. It is. A SQLite version is planned, but I like Postgres, so that's what I chose to write for first.

Can you set up multiple banks?

Not very easily with this early version, but that will be a thing later on.

Setup

First, set up your Postgres DB that you intend to use. I recommend using UNICODE in case a player character insists on using diacritics, or of course, if your native language requires it. I use these options:

# Yes, I know some of these options are redundant, but I never
# remember which ones, it doesn't hurt, and DERPA is easy to remember.
# Please note that your DB password, like is often required, will be
# stored as plain text in the configuration file. 
#### DO NOT RE-USE YOUR PASSWORDS, especially here. ####

createuser -DERPA [your_user]
createdb -E UNICODE -O [your_user] dnd_bank

Next, import the table structure included in this repo for a blank bank:

psql -h [db_host] -p [db_port] -U [your_user] -d [db_name] < dnd_bank.psql

Finally, set up your configuration file. (This step will be unnecessary via a guided configuration that will be included in a future update)

cp [repo_location]/dndbank.conf ~/
vim ~/.dndbank.conf
# Fill out the information

Now just run the bank script and create some accounts. You are good to go!
