I followed the instructions but it fails on npm install. Log attached below.

'You need to manually create a symlink /usr/bin/node. Shortcut for bash compatible shells:

sudo ln -s which nodejs /usr/bin/node

Or if you use non-standard shells, just hardcode the path you find with which nodejs:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

Try this and let me know the results. Thanks!

Installation is successful. However, when I try to run:

ERROR in ./src/redux/actions.js Module not found: Error: Cannot resolve module 'react-router-redux' in /home/bosu/CS435/Direct_Democracy-production/src/redux @ ./src/redux/actions.js 35:24-53

[GregoryBrinkman]

Try npm install react-router-redux?

Installation and run is successful. Should have included those in your installation instructions.

Now it runs but does not show any bill to vote (screenshot attached).

[OuraniaSpantidi]

@amiangshu I forgot to mention that there were some extra npm modules' installations needed because each time I was changing a machine I was forgetting it myself. In order to see bills you have to go to scripts folder and run node titleParsing.js this is demarco's work. We didn't figure out a daily sync script in the end so you have to manually do it. Another thing I forgot to mention at the readme.

[amiangshu]

Other required modules include: nano, cheerios, and pouchdb. Those should be included in the instruction. Anyway, even after running the title parsing script, I do not see any bill. I cannot register either. When I press "Create account", nothing happens (no error message either).

[OuraniaSpantidi]

Nothing appears when you click on the "new user"? There should be a pop up window with input fields for username, password, demographics.

[amiangshu]

Yes, the popup appears. I filled out the form and clicked "Create account". But "Create account" does not do anything.

[GregoryBrinkman]

The information is registered in the database and you are logged in if you click on another page, instead of 'login' on the navbar, 'account' will be visible. Things are being done behind the scenes, but the design is not completely responsive. On Thu, May 11, 2017 at 8:26 PM Amiangshu Bosu notifications@github.com wrote:

[amiangshu]

The entry is not actually stored in the database.

JS console also shows an error.

[GregoryBrinkman]

CORS must be enabled for data to be transmitted between ports on localhost (By default, this is off on Couchdb for security). If these commands don't work, the link offers other solutions.

npm install -g add-cors-to-couchdb add-cors-to-couchdb

https://github.com/pouchdb/add-cors-to-couchdb

[amiangshu]

When, I register there was not feedback (that's a poor design). Please check lecture 10 about UI design.

After enabling cors, I can see the bills. But I am not sure if the votes work. More errors. I would recommend you to install your application on a new virtual machine and figure out all the possible requirements. Clearly the installation instructions that you have added are not adequate.

[GregoryBrinkman]

That last error comes from having couchdb version < 2.0. I wasn't able to resolve that on my linux machine, but instead had to run my server on a windows machine.

[amiangshu]

Please include a complete setup instruction for windows machine. I will try it on a windows machine tomorrow.

[GregoryBrinkman]

Hi @amiangshu , With the merging of #21, I believe the install can be done by following the updated README.md in master.
