The first crowdfunding platform from Brazil

An open-source crowdfunding platform for creative projects

Welcome to Catarse's source code repository. Our goal with opening the source code is to stimulate the creation of a community of developers around a high-quality crowdfunding platform.

You can see the software in action in http://catarse.me. The official repo is https://github.com/catarse/catarse

Getting started

Dependencies

To run this project you need to have:

Setup the project

  • Clone the project

      $ git clone https://github.com/catarse/catarse.git
    
  • Enter project folder

      $ cd catarse
    
  • Create the database.yml

      $ cp config/database.sample.yml config/database.yml
    

    You must do this to configure your local database! Add your database username and password (unless you don't have any).

  • Install the gems

      $ bundle install
    
  • Install the front-end dependencies

      $ bower install
    

    Requires bower, which requires Node.js and its package manager, npm. Follow the instructions on the bower.io website.

  • Create and seed the database

      $ rake db:create db:migrate db:seed
    

If everything goes OK, you can now run the project!

Running the project

$ rails server

Open http://localhost:3000

Translations

We hope to support a lot of languages in the future, so we are willing to accept pull requests with translations to other languages.

Thanks a lot to Daniel Walmsley, from http://purpose.com, for starting the internationalization and beginning the English translation.

Payment gateways

Currently, we support MoIP, PayPal and WePay through our payment engines. Payment engines are extensions to Catarse that implement a specific payment gateway logic. The current working engines are:

  • MoIP
  • PayPal
  • WePay

If you have created a different payment engine to Catarse, please contact us so we can link your engine here. If you want to create a payment engine, please join our mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/catarse-dev

How to contribute with code

Before contributing, take a look at our Roadmap (https://www.pivotaltracker.com/projects/427075) and discuss your plans in our mailing list (http://groups.google.com/group/catarse-dev).

Our Pivotal is concerned with user visible features using user stories. But we do have some features not visible to users that are planned such as:

  • Turn Catarse into a Rails Engine with customizable views.
  • Make an installer script to guide users through initial Catarse configuration.

After that, just fork the project, change what you want, and send us a pull request.

Best practices (or how to get your pull request accepted faster)

  • Follow this style guide: https://github.com/bbatsov/ruby-style-guide
  • Create one acceptance tests for each scenario of the feature you are trying to implement.
  • Create model and controller tests to keep 100% of code coverage in the new parts you are writing.
  • Feel free to add specs to committed code that lacks coverage ;)
  • Let our tests serve as a style guide: we try to use implicit spec subjects and lazy evaluation wherever we can.
