OTA University

OTA University is a training ground for OTA members. Members register via their Slack account and participate in solving and creating challenges for the OTA community.

Based on the amount of currently active challenges solved, members gain points and ranks.

Requirements

The web application runs on Python3 and uses Slack as an authentication service.

To use OTA-University on your Slack, you'll need to create a Slack Application and fetch its SLACK_CLIENT_ID and SLACK_CLIENT_SECRET. More information here.

Deployment

git clone https://github.com/OpenToAllCTF/OTA-University
cd OTA-University
pip3 install -r REQUIREMENTS.txt

Seeding database

The database can be seeded with default values through the ctf_framework/fixtures/dev.yaml file.

To do so, use the following command : python3 manage.py loaddata dev

Becoming an admin

To become an admin of OTA University, you need to set your User object's is_staff property to True. You can do this via the manage.py shell command :

$ python3 manage.py shell

>>> from ctf_framework.models import User
>>> user = User.objects.first()
>>> user.is_staff = True
>>> user.save()

Faking challenge solves

You can manipulate the database easily via manage.py shell. For example, in order to add solves to a challenge, we can manually create Solve objects and link them to your account :
