Ruby 2.0 needed. You can install it using RVM:
$ rvm get stable
$ rvm install 2.0.0
Postgres is used for the database. We use the hstore datatypes, so 9.0 is required. If developing in OS X Postgres.app is the easiest way to get Postgres installed. Then create a user qm and the database:
$ createuser -s -h localhost qm
$ createdb -O qm -h localhost qm_development
$ createdb -O qm -h localhost qm_test
ImageMagick is a dependency of Carrierwave, and is used to manipulate scaled images. You'll need to install it manually:
$ brew install imagemagick # in OS X
$ # TODO: add Linux command
Then install and run locally, get a copy of the code, install the dependencies:
$ git clone https://github.com/civio/quienmanda.es.git
$ cd quienmanda.es
$ bundle install
We keep "sensitive parameters" in a local file config/application.yml outside of version control. Make a copy of config/application.yml-example into config/application.yml; for a local deployment you don't need to modify the settings.
Set up the database (this will also create some sample data, and a user with email [email protected] and password password):
$ bundle exec rake db:setup
Run the tests:
$ bundle exec rake
And then run the application:
$ bundle exec rails server
There is a nice guide here, but basically start by creating the app:
$ heroku apps:create
$ heroku addons:add memcachier
In production uploaded pictures are stored in S3, so you will need to provide your AWS credentials, which we handle safely using the Figaro gem. Edit config/application.yml and then, to set the env variables in Heroku, run:
$ rake figaro:heroku
(Or, if you have multiple Heroku apps in the same folder, do rake figaro:heroku[myapp].)
You can now deploy and start the app:
$ git push heroku master
$ heroku run rake db:setup
$ heroku apps:open
