Welcome to the Ticket Booth!

The goal of the app is to make ticket and volunteer management for community events easier and automated.

Production Deploy, as of 2024

To deploy to production site — https://tickets.fnf.events — the deployer’s IP address must be white-listed with EC2. Contact Konstantin Gredeskoul to get white-listed.

The deploy is performed via Capistrano:

git checkout main
git pull
bundle install
bundle exec cap production deploy

Development Environment Setup

The following walks through a local setup on OS-X M1.

Streamlined Setup

If you installed Homebrew on your laptop, you should be able to boot the app.

Optional VIM and PostgreSQL Local Configuration

We provided a pretty comprehensive VIM configuration with auto-complete, as well as the psql configuration with a prompt and additional useful macros.

To install this, run

bin/install-dev-tooling

After that, your vim sessions will have auto-complete enabled, and your psql -U postgres sessions will have rich prompt.

Running App Dependencies Installer

You can run the following setup script, but only on OS-X, to attempt a complete set up of the development environment, as well as the installation of the Rubies, Gems and Database:

bin/boot-up

This should install all of the Brew dependencies, start PostgreSQL, memcached, and install Ruby, Node, Yarn, Gems and Node packages.

Starting the Rails Server

make dev

This actually starts Foreman via bundle exec foreman -f Procfile.dev — this is required to start CSS and JS just-in-time compilcation in addition to the Rails server.

The server will run on port 8080, and in development will hot swap any locally modified files, including CSS and JS.

Caution
Running rails s is no longer sufficient to start the application.

Running Tests and Linters

To verify that your local environment is working, run the following:

make ci

This will run DB Migrations, followed by RSpec, Rubocop, and ShellCheck.

Additional Information

We dedicated a separate document to the developer setup, which helps you get the application running locally.

Alternatively, keep reading for step-by-step manual instructions.

Optional Manual Setup

If you prefer to run all the steps manually, then follow the guide below.

Manual 1: Services

Please make sure you have PostgreSQL and running locally, or install it via Homebrew:

brew install direnv

brew install postgresql@16
brew services postgresql@16 start

brew install memcached
brew services memcached start

Manual 2: Direnv Setup

Before you can start the Ruby Server, you need to configure direnv so that the environment in the file .envrc is loaded on OS-X.

To do that follow the instructions for setting direnv on bash or zsh depending on what you are running. To find out, run echo $SHELL.

After you setup the shell initialization file, restart your terminal or reload the shell configuration.

Once you are back in the project’s folder, run:

eval "$(direnv hook ${SHELL/*\/})"
direnv allow .
Note
the first line above should be copied to your shell RC (aka "dotfiles").

This will load the environment variables from the .envrc file.

Manual 3: NodeJS & Votal Setup

Run the following to get Volta Node Manager working:

curl https://get.volta.sh | bash
volta install node@lts
volta install yarn
volta pin node yarn

Now your Node & Yarn should be installed.

Manual 3: Ruby Setup

# install brew from https://brew.sh
brew bundle 2>/dev/null

# ensure the following packages exist
brew install rbenv ruby-build direnv volta

eval "$(rbenv init -)"

rbenv install -s $(cat .ruby-version)
rbenv local $(cat .ruby-version)

bundle install -j 12
rails db:prepare
rails db:test:prepare

# Run Specs at the end
bundle exec rspec

# Run rubocop
bundle exec rubocop

# Run ShellCheck
bin/shchk

Manual 4: Starting the Server

To start the server post-setup, run the following (NOTE: you must start the server via Foreman, since it also starts yarn tasks that monitor and dynamically recompile CSS and JS assets)

bundle exec foreman -f Procfile.dev

You can also use the Makefile:

make dev
# or use the script
bin/dev

Here is an example:

Booting with Make

API Testing

HTTP API Specs use the VCR Gem to mock calls to external APIs using a record and replay model. https://github.com/vcr/vcr

Cassettes are stored in spec/fixtures/vcr_cassettes If an API changes due to version, response, etc…​ you will need to rebuild cassettes for those specs. Delete the directory and/or files for the specs that have changed. It is ok to delete all cassettes and regenerate everything. This can be done in your local development environment.

VCR is configured in spec/spec_helper.rb

You must filter any API keys before you check in cassettes to prevent keys in GitHub https://benoittgt.github.io/vcr/#/configuration/filter_sensitive_data

To enable vcr recording on a given spec, add a vcr hook to the spec as follows

it 'does not change payment intent', :vcr do
    expect { payment_intent }.not_to(change(payment, :payment_intent))
end

To turn off VCR HTTP request interception for a given spec or block, add

VCR.turned_off do
    make_request "In VCR.turned_off block"
end
make_request "Outside of VCR.turned_off block"
VCR.turn_off!
make_request "After calling VCR.turn_off!"
VCR.turned_on do
    make_request "In VCR.turned_on block"
end
VCR.turn_on!
make_request "After calling VCR.turn_on!"

Adding Site Admin

When the database is completely blank, the first step is to create the initial account. Lets say you registered as '[email protected]':

The second step is to make that person a site admin:

RAILS_ENV=production
bin/site-admin add [email protected]

# Or, to remove site admin from a given user:
bin/site-admin remove [email protected]

Generating Music Submissions List

The repo contains a convenient script for generating HTML to embed into the Wordpress site, using a CSV generated out of Google Spreadsheet collected using Google Forms.

The CSV must contain three columns and a header row:

  • DJ Name

  • Full Name

  • Set URL

To generate the HTML (we’ll use the CSV file checked into the fixtures):

# eg, using the fixture file:
$ bin/music-submission-links spec/fixtures/chill_sets.csv > chill_set.html

# or, to include the simple CSS into the header:
$ bin/music-submission-links spec/fixtures/chill_sets.csv --simple-css > chill_set.html
open chill_set.html
Warning
If you add --simple-css to the arguments, the generated HTML will include <head> element with the Simple CSS Stylesheet. Do not use this flag if you plan to paste the output into the WordPress text box. Use this flag if you simply want to verify the resulting HTML in a browser by running open chill_set.html.

To verify that the script is working and generating correct HTML, you might want to install a handy tool called bat, eg using Homebrew on Mac OS-X:

$ brew install bat
$ bin/music-submission-links spec/fixtures/chill_sets.csv | bat
Adding Submissions to WordPress

Now you can open WordPress, create a two-column layout on the submissions page and paste the contents into one of the two columns, typically:

  1. Night time / Peak Hour

  2. Chill / Daytime

First, let’s copy the resulting HTML into clipboard:

$ bin/music-submission-links chill_sets.csv | pbcopy

Now we can paste it into WordPress directly.

API Documentation

Yard-generated documentation is available via running:

$ bundle exec rake doc
# this will automatically open the index.html
