Crowdsourcing platform for gathering gender information about politicians to improve the data in EveryPolitician.
Get the code from GitHub
git clone https://github.com/everypolitician/gender-balance
cd gender-balance
Configure the environment by copying .env.example and following the instructions inside to configure the app.
cp .env.example .env
vi .env
Then use vagrant to build a VM with all the dependencies installed:
vagrant up
Log in to the vagrant VM and start the app server and worker with foreman:
vagrant ssh
foreman start
Then visit http://localhost:5000 to view the app.
To run the tests use the following:
vagrant ssh
bundle exec rake test
First start a pry session, if you're in a vagrant VM then run
pry -r ./app
Or if you want to run pry on Heroku
heroku run 'pry -r ./app'
Then you can set the featured country using the country code, which can be found in countries.json. For example to set it to Turkey:
FeaturedCountry.current = 'TR'
This will end any previous featured country and create a new row for the given country code.
