A Rails application to collaboratively estimate stories

Points

This is a Rails application to collaboratively estimate stories.

Getting started

To get started with the app, clone the repo and then install the needed gems running the setup script:

$ ./bin/setup

Environment Variables

ORGANIZATION_LOGIN: This is the organization name as it appears in the GitHub URL, for instance orgname in https://github.com/orgname. It is needed to check if users are a part of the organization. Ensure that your membership is set to public when you visit https://github.com/orgs/orgname/people.

If you don't belong to any organization, you can set up one here: https://github.com/organizations/plan

Make sure you add your organization to the .env file like this:

ORGANIZATION_LOGIN=orgname

GITHUB_APP_ID and GITHUB_APP_SECRET: These are the credentials of the OAuth GitHub App that you need to create. Follow the instructions on this link to create one: Creating an OAuth GitHub App

When creating the OAuth GitHub App, the Homepage URL field should be set to http://localhost:3000, and the Authorization callback URL should be http://localhost:3000/users/auth/github/callback.

Once you create the app and generate credentials for it, make sure you add them to the .env file like this:

GITHUB_APP_ID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
GITHUB_APP_SECRET=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

SHOW_DEVELOPER_AUTH=true can be used to allow easy login without requiring GitHub's setup during local development or in safe review environments.

Starting the Server

$ rails s

Go to http://localhost:3000

Running Tests

$ rails spec

Using Docker

NOTE: You'll need to have docker and docker-compose installed

Build the points docker image

./bin/setup_with_docker

Run the app

./bin/start_with_docker

or

docker-compose up web-next

Admin Users

Users are created without admin privileges by default, because admin users have access to a few more features related to reports and setting real score of stories.

Currently, the only way to flag a user as admin is a direct database update using either postgres cli or the rails console.

If you want to set the flag for a user, you can follow these steps:

rails console

or

docker-compose run --rm web rails console

and then:

User.find_by(email: "[email protected]").update_attribute(:admin, true)

Rack Mini Profiler

To enable the Rack Mini Profiler widget, add the ?enable_rack_mini_profiler query string to any url. The widget will stay on for all requests until disabled.

To disable the Rack Mini Profiler widget, add the ?disable_rack_mini_profiler query string to any url.
