Getting started as a developer

Setup

• git clone git@github.com:jasonLaster/DGD.git
  • Or fork the repo, and clone your own fork!
• bundle install
  • You may have to gem install bundler first if you haven't before
• rake db:migrate
  • This updates the db schema
• rake import_spreadsheet_data_into_db
  • This adds groups to db
• rake install_hooks
  • This will install our custom git-hooks which insert the build number into the VERSION file.

Development

By default, rails runs in developer mode on port 3000. So if you run rails s your app will be at http://0.0.0.0:3000.

To run in production mode, run rails s -e production, but you must have installed and run memcached -d (memcached in daemon mode) to do this first. (You can also run memcached in regular mode by just running memcached.) To install on Mac, do a sudo port install memcached if you're behind the times, or brew install memcached if you're more current.
