rubytoolbox / catalog

The Ruby Toolbox library catalog. If you'd like to contribute to the categorizations of Ruby open source projects on the Ruby Toolbox this is the place you can do so 📬🎉

Find actively maintained & popular open source software libraries for the Ruby programming language

The Ruby Toolbox is a catalog of all Rubygems that keeps track of popularity and health metrics to help you choose a reliable library.

This is the source code for the site you can visit at https://www.ruby-toolbox.com/

Development

Prerequisites

The Ruby Toolbox depends on a few utilities which you will need to install before you begin.

PostgreSQL (Version 13)

• Linux: Use the official postgres repositories for Apt or Yum
• Mac OS: Use HomeBrew or Postgres.app

Redis

• Linux: On Ubuntu, you can use this PPA. Otherwise build from source as detailed in The Redis quickstart.
• Mac OS: Use HomeBrew or build from source as detailed in The Redis quickstart.

Ruby

Install the current project ruby version, preferrably with a Ruby version manager like chruby, rbenv, or rvm

You will also need Bundler for installing the project's dependencies.

Node.js and Yarn

Yarn is used to manage frontend dependencies for the project. It can be installed by following the official installation guide. You will also need to install Node.js.

Running the application

1. Start postgres and redis
2. Install the project's dependencies and prepare the database with bin/setup
3. Optional but recommended: Import a partial production database dump using bin/pull_database. You can also load some test data quickly by running rake db:fixtures:load
4. In order to access the GitHub GraphQL API for pulling repo data, you need to create a OAuth token as per GitHub's documentation. No auth scopes are needed. Place the token as GITHUB_TOKEN=yourtoken in .env.local and .env.local.test.
5. Run the services with foreman start. You can access the site at http://localhost:5000

Further steps

• You can run the test suite with bundle exec rspec
• You can check code style with bundle exec rubocop
• During development you can launch guard using bundle exec guard to continuously check your changes
• The repo has overcommit git hooks set up to check your changes before commit, push etc. You can set it up once with bundle exec overcommit --install. Whenever the hook config file .overcommit.yml changes, you need to verify it's contents and approve the changes with bundle exec overcommit --sign
• You can find the sidekiq web UI at http://localhost:5000/ops/sidekiq. Username can be empty, the default password is development.

Production

See our overview of Configuration settings for an overview of what needs to be set up to run the app in production.
