Summit Invite Script

It sends codes from codes.csv to ATCs in atc.csv and outputs a csv file with which name corresponds to which code.

You use it like this:

Copy settings.py.sample to settings.py
Update values in settings.py, especially EMAIL_USER, EMAIL_FROM, EMAIL_SIGNATURE and EMAIL_PASSWORD
Note that literal $ characters in the template which are not part of a substitution variable (such as dollar amounts) should be doubled to escape them like ... a $$600-off discount code ... so as to avoid raising ValueError: Invalid placeholder in string: line <X>, col <Y>
Run a test with PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8 python send.py atc_sample.csv codes_sample.csv > sent_sample.csv

Should work on stock Ubuntu.

When ready, run the real thing with:

$ PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8 python send.py atc.csv codes.csv > sent.csv
