Hello,

This is not an issue but I could not find another place to post. Feel free to redirect me to the right spot.

I would like to try to use your project but I'm not familiar with closure at all. Would you mind adding a section in the README with quick start steps to install the dependencies and start the app ?

Thanks,

Aurels

@Raynes can you take care of this?

Raynes commented 11 years ago

Yep. I love writing documentation. I'll get a guide going in the next day or so.

aurels commented 11 years ago

Thanks guys ;-)

Raynes commented 11 years ago

@aureis I've got this on my TODO list for Monday. Really busy with last minute moving stuff. Hope that's alright.

aurels commented 11 years ago

No problems, thanks !

Raynes commented 11 years ago

@aurels Just added instructions on getting the importer going. Let me know if they're sufficient.

aurels commented 11 years ago

Thanks, I'll try it out today when I am able and I'll let you know my eventual issues ;-)

aurels commented 11 years ago

Hello,

I can build and start the project without any trouble at all !

On the other side, I can't find the way to get an access token. There isn't such a "Get Access Token" link/button on the API explorer page. Google doesn't help me. Do I have to activate something on my account ?

Thanks.

Raynes commented 11 years ago

Right, you probably need to register an app. I'll update the instructions in a few.

Raynes commented 11 years ago

Updated. Let me know if that works out.

aurels commented 11 years ago

Raynes,

After reading you update I'm able to get a token ;-)

I'm now stuck at the step of the gedcom file upload. When I upload it, it does nothing for dozens of seconds. I then get a JS error in the console : 

Failed to load resource: Resource failed to load http://qa.geni.com:9255/geni-gedcom/upload
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input

Do you think my ged file is broken ? It comes from MacFamilyTree and I can successfully import it in other software. I'm probably missing something here.

Btw, do I need to use the master branch or develop ?

Raynes commented 11 years ago

I was accidentally pushing against master until this last push. Make sure you've got the latest develop. I fixed that yesterday.

aurels commented 11 years ago

Awesome it works. Many thanks to you for your help.

Raynes commented 11 years ago

No problem! If you ever have any other issues, let us know.
