Trap Queue

Setup & Installation

1. If you aren't already using RVM, it's recommended you start.

   • Follow the instructions for installing RVM as a single user.

   • Create a ~/.gemrc file with the following contents:

        gem: --no-ri --no-rdoc
     

   • Execute rvm notes for information on needed packages for installing rubies.

   • Install Ruby 1.9.2 with rvm install 1.9.2

2. Fork the project to your own GitHub profile and clone it:

    $ git clone git@github.com:YOURUSERNAME/TrapQueue.git
   

3. Change directories to your cloned repo:

    $ cd TrapQueue
   

4. If you're using RVM, you'll be asked if you want to execute the project's .rvmrc. Inspect the contents and say "yes."

5. Create a new gemset:

    $ rvm gemset create TrapQueue
   

6. Change the current Ruby to this gemset:

    $ rvm use 1.9.2@TrapQueue
   

7. Install bundler with gem install bundler.

8. Run bundle in the root of the project to install required gems.

9. Copy config/database.yml.example to config/database.yml and edit the settings to fit your setup.

10. Run rake db:create and rake db:migrate to setup your database.

11. Run rails s and visit http://localhost:3000/ to see if everything's working.
