Audio Playground

Audalai

Running on Rails 6 rc1!

Setup

Database setup

Audalai uses PostgreSQL as a database provider in development and production environments. Unlike SQLite, you need to install a pg server as a prerequsite to install the pg gem, which this application needs. You can brew your own pg solution for dev or do what I did (OS X only):

1. Install Postgres.app
2. Install Postico -- this is optional, but a nice graphical interface into PostgreSQL.
3. Make sure the Postgres.app bin folder is in your path:

• sudo mkdir -p /etc/paths.d && echo /Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/latest/bin | sudo tee /etc/paths.d/postgresapp

1. Start a new terminal session and confirm that which psql gives you a valid psql installation.

Application setup

1. Run bundle in the app directory to install the application gems.
2. Seed your development database: rails db:setup or rails db:reset
3. Generate a google app engine keyfile: mkdir config/credentials && gcloud --project audalai iam service-accounts keys create config/credentials/gcloud_service_account_key.json --iam-account [email protected]

Hosting & Deployment

Audalai is hosted on Heroku. To interact with the project via the CLI, install the heroku CLI.

The application is set up to have Rails serve the static front-end via the public folder. To do this, we have added two buildpacks to our Heroku project:

heroku buildpacks:add heroku/nodejs --index 1
heroku buildpacks:add heroku/ruby --index 2

To deploy, first make sure you have a heroku origin set up

heroku git:remote -a audalai

Then simply push to the heroku origin:

git push heroku master

To deploy a non-master branch, you have to deploy it to push it to heroku/master:

git push heroku branch:master

If deploying for the first time, prepare the database

heroku run rake db:migrate
heroku run rake db:seed
