Getting Started

Installing Programs

The steps below should be straightforward for Linux and OSX users. Windows users please refer to this guide for tips on setup.

Ruby on Rails

http://railsinstaller.org/en

Postgres

Check out http://www.postgresql.org/download/

OSX

Install via Homebrew

brew install postgresql

#####Linux

Bulid from the source using yum, apt-get, etc.

Windows

Install via graphical installer

Install Gems

After cloning the app on your local machine, in your terminal run the following commands in the /ifme directory

bundle install

Possible Errors

If Ruby Bundle Symbol not found: _SSLv2_client_method (LoadError) is encountered, try running the following commands.

rvm get stable

rvm reinstall ruby

rvm gemset pristine

On Windows, you may encounter an error like SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed. If this happens, download the CURL CA bundle and set the environment variable SSL_CERT_FILE to point to it.

Setting Up Postgres

Time to set up a Postgres user!

sudo su - postgres

createuser -s -r ifme_app

In pg_hba.conf, make sure the value for auth-method in the ifme_app database is trust. This is because no password is being used for the local development and test databases, as seen in database.yml. Refer to this guide as a reference.

To find the path of pg_hba.conf run the following commands.

psql

SHOW hba_file;

Running the App Locally

After exiting from Postgres by typing in exit in the terminal, run the following commands.

bin/rake db:create db:migrate

bin/rake db:setup

rails s

Accessing the Database

rails db

Note that ifme_test is used when running unit tests
