A series of Python components that process eTicketing and digital forms for RoadSafety BC.

At the present time, these components process the following types of events:

Electronic Tickets:

  • the issuance of a ticket
  • the payment of a ticket
  • the dispute of a ticket
  • the status of a dispute
  • the finding of a disputed ticket
  • the query of a ticket record

Driving Prohibition Reviews

  • the application to review
  • the payment for a review
  • the scheduling of a review
  • the release of police evidence

The system to handle these events is made up of seven containers / pods:

  • An ingestor that accepts events as either XML or JSON data
  • A Message Broker (RabbitMQ) that stores the events while they're being processed.
  • A validator that checks events to make sure required fields are included
  • A geocoder that determines the geolocation of an address
  • An API endpoint for PayBC to query for payable items
  • A writer that inserts the data into the business intelligence database
  • A form handler that processes digital form submissions
