Starting a server locally for development purposes: data not loading from the drive? #100

Closed juliacarbajal closed 5 years ago

juliacarbajal commented 5 years ago

I need to start a local server so I can run the website on my computer and try a few things. I cloned the repo and have all the R packages installed, but when I changed the project_directory in global.R to "../../" as suggested in the readme, I managed to launch for ex. the visualization app but the data is not there. I get a Warning: Error in eval: object 'all_data' not found. I'm running it on Windows.

Does anyone know if I'm missing something? For example I did not install shiny server, is this necessary for the app to download the data from the drive? Thanks in advance to anyone who can give me a hint of what may have gone wrong :)

Well I just realised it was necessary to run mean_builder.R before running the app to get the variables. I will add this to the readme.
