Generated with Raygun.

Requirements

To run the specs or fire up the server, be sure you have these:

  • Ruby 2.1.0
  • PostgreSQL 9.x with superuser 'postgres' with no password (createuser -s postgres)
  • PhantomJS for JavaScript testing (brew install phantomjs)

Development

First Time Setup

After cloning, run these commands to install missing gems and prepare the database.

$ gem install bundler
$ bundle
$ rake db:setup db:sample_data

Note, rake db:sample_data loads a small set of data for development. Check out db/sample_data.rb for details.

Running the Specs

To run all ruby and jasmine specs.

$ rake

Again, with coverage for the ruby specs:

$ rake spec:coverage

Running the Application Locally

$ foreman start
$ open http://localhost:3000

Using Guard

Guard is configured to run ruby and jasmine specs, and also listen for livereload connections. Growl is used for notifications.

$ bundle exec guard

Using Mailcatcher

$ gem install mailcatcher
$ mailcatcher
$ open http://localhost:1080/

Learn more at mailcatcher.me. And please don't add mailcatcher to the Gemfile.
