This repo performs a few different purposes:

• An issue tracker for Frictionless Data (http:https://data.okfn.org/) activities
• Source repo for documentation for Frictionless Data project (docs themselves deployed at http:https://data.okfn.org/doc/)
• The simple NodeJS app that runs the http:https://data.okfn.org website

Requires NodeJS (>= v0.8).

Install the requirements (in package.json):

npm install .

This is optional - the app will work out of the box with the default configuration (see lib/config.js).

You can configure the app by setting environment variables:

• CATALOG_LIST: a URL to a Data Package Catalog List - a txt file with each line being a URL to a Data Package. See e.g. http:https://raw.github.com/datasets/registry/master/catalog-list.txt
• CORE_CATALOG_LIST same as previous but points to list of Core Data Packages e.g. http:https://raw.github.com/datasets/registry/master/datapackage-list.txt

Run the web app locally:

node app.js

If you want to do a deployment to Heroku see the next section.

Note that you will need to install the Heroku toolbelt to carry out the heroku commands below.

Skip this step if the application is already deployed

This is heavily based on this tutorial.

# replace {app-name} with the name of your app
heroku create {app-name}
git push heroku master
# now point at our config
heroku ps:scale web=1

Push to heroku git repo:

git push heroku master

Note: if didn't do the create you will need to add the heroku remote:

git remote add heroku [email protected]:{app-name}.git

heroku sharing:add [email protected]

Do the following:

heroku domains:add {your-domain-name}

Now CNAME your domain to {myapp}.herokuapp.com
