Developer Setup

Some basic steps:

• Install the Heroku Toolbelt. Note that we do not put the heroku gem into our Gemfile; developers should install the toolbelt directly. Also, OSX users must use brew install heroku to install it; do not download the PKG from Heroku (see this).
• Install RVM (Tips for OSX: here, but only install RVM right now.)

Then do the following. But note:

• This assumes your postgresql version is 9.4
• Feel free to use your own name, but always use a ouroctopus.com email address in your git config - we probably assigned one to you
• Use the password 'octopus' when prompted (it's in the template database.yml)

Note: See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16684544/libmagickcore-so-4-cannot-open-shared-object-file-no-such-file-or-directory

Why is there a mongodb installation here? Didn't we remove mongodb from the project long ago?

Ubuntu Linux

sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib
sudo apt-get install postgresql libpq-dev mongodb nodejs libmagickwand-dev imagemagick

Max OSX

brew doctor
brew install postgresql
brew install mongodb
brew install nodejs

Both environments

rvm install 2.2.2
git clone [email protected]:e-wing/octopus.git
cd octopus
git remote rename origin github
git config user.name "____"
git config user.email "[email protected]"
git config push.default matching
gem install bundler solano mailcatcher
bundle --without production

If non-OSX

sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE USER octopus WITH CREATEDB PASSWORD 'octopus';"

If OSX

createuser -P -S -R -d octopus

For everyone

cp config/database.local.yml config/database.yml
rake db:create
rake full_reset:alpha

If rake db:create doesn't work, then try this:

sudo -u postgres createdb -Ooctopus -Eutf8 octopus_development
sudo -u postgres createdb -Ooctopus -Eutf8 octopus_test

rake full_reset:dev

If you're going to do deployments

If you're going to do deployments then you need to set up the git remotes:

git remote add alpha [email protected]:oct-alpha.git
git remote add beta [email protected]:oct-beta.git
git remote add prod [email protected]:oct.git

Plus you'll need to add your key:

heroku keys:add --remote alpha
heroku keys:add --remote beta
heroku keys:add --remote prod

Windows

No info.

Development Server

To run the local development server:

foreman start

Then browse to http://localhost:3000

Alpha Environment

On Alpha, the seed login is [email protected] with password secretpassword123.
