How to install alumnizer

 - development version (header files) for  libldap2 and libsasl2
 - GCC or equivalent compiler
 

i)   Unpack and/or copy everything to its future location.

ii)  Go to the chosen location.

iii) To create a isolated Python3 environment run: 
     python3 -m venv alumnizer_venv

iv)  To activate the new environment run:
     source ./alumnizer_venv/bin/activate 

v)   To install additional Python3 packages run:
     pip3 install -r requirements.txt

     By default data is read from the file "ldapresult.ldif" and written
     to "alumni.html" and "alumni_cf.html" for unconnected and connected
     filter versions respectively.
     
vii) Run "make.sh" to create the results for incorporation into your
     website. Maybe creating a cronjob to do this periodically might be 
     a good idea.
