Prerequisites

• Ruby 2.3.4
• Node v0.10.26
• Postgres 9

Getting Started

The local development environment can easily be setup by running the following command:

bin/setup

This installs all dependencies, and configures and creates the database. After the command has finished, the application can be started by running these two commands:

bundle exec rails s
npm run webpack-w

For convenience, Foreman can be used to run both commands together:

foreman start

Browse to localhost:4000 and log in with the demo user user@example.com with the password password.

Development

Testing

To test with a given seed, run

bundle exec rake test TESTOPTS="--seed YOURSEEDHERE"

Known Errors

Are you seeing?

ActionView::Template::Error: couldn't find file 'main.bundle' with type 'application/javascript'

This is because main.bundle.js is in the .gitignore for reasons that have to do with it changing all the time. Run

touch app/assets/javascripts/main.bundle.js

to fix.

In the future we're going to want to check it in blank and run "assume unchanged" locally so git never bugs us to check in changes everytime we compile assets. This can be done with

 git update-index --assume-unchanged app/assets/javascripts/main.bundle.js
