In rails console
you'll want to create an admin user:
User.create! email: "[email protected]", password: "yourpassword", admin: true
- Prequisites
- A github account and a repository into which to fork other repositories
- Steps
- Navigate in a browser to https://github.com/sketch-city/harvey-api
- Click the Fork button in the upper right of the screenshot_create-service-account-key
- If prompted choose into where you want to form (e.g., if you are a member of multiple github repositories)
- You'll now have a forked version - your own version - of the repository.
- Go to "Clone or download" button on right of screen and copy that URL. It will be of the format
git clone [email protected]:<YOUR OWN GITHUB REPOSITORY>/harvey-api.git
- In the directory on your local box in which you plan to work run:
git clone [email protected]:<YOUR OWN GITHUB REPOSITORY>/harvey-api.git
- GOOGLE_GEOCODER_API_KEY = Geocoding with Google Maps API, get one
- AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = Product Advertising API, see below
Note: this is optional; currently only needed to fetch new Amazon products from the Amazon Product Advertising API
You'll need to set the following ENV variables in a .env file
- Make a working copy of .env by runng this command at the terminal:
cp .env.sample .env
- Get Amazon AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY from Amazon's IAM. You'll need to create a PolicyName. You can name it "ProductAdvertisingAPI" with the following policy:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": "ProductAdvertisingAPI:*",
"Resource": "*"
}
]
}
-
Prerequisites
- PostgreSQL is installed and running on your local machine
-
Method 1: Automatic
- Run
rails db:setup
- Run
-
Method 2: Manual
- Create a postgres users
It's recommended though optional that you use a distinct user for the harvey-api database
- Example
createuser harvey-api_development -P
The-P
flag will prompt you to create a password for the new user
- Example
- Create the database (with the owner of the database set to user just created in the last step)
- Example
createdb -O harvey-api_development harvey-api_development
- Example
- Create a postgres users
It's recommended though optional that you use a distinct user for the harvey-api database
-
Run rails migrate to create schema
rails db:migrate
-
Import needs and shelters data from the production API:
rails api:import
Sample output if successful
Starting ImportSheltersJob 2017-09-03 18:33:03 +0000 ImportSheltersJob Complete - {285} Starting ImportNeedsJob 2017-09-03 18:33:05 +0000 ImportNeedsJob Complete - {92}
-
Test the API itself (Run API locally)
- You can load Amazon Products by seeding your database:
rails db:seed
(or doing a full importrails amazon:import
) TheActiveJob
s and associated Rake taskrails api:import
, which imports data for shelters and needs from the production API into the application database, is intended for use in development and test environments only.
DO NOT RUN THIS JOB IN PRODUCTION. Since this job pulls data from the production API, running it in production can only be counter-productive, and would likely be destructive.
Code should have tests, and any pull requests should be made only after you've made sure passes the test suite
We force pull-requests from feature branches to master. Once something lands in master, it goes live instantly
git remote add upstream [email protected]:sketch-city/harvey-api.git
git fetch upstream
Within your own forked repo create branches for each logical unit for work you do. One benefit of doing this is you'll be able to periodically sync your forked repo with upstream repo into the master branch without conflicting with work you may be doing.
When you believe your code is ready to be merged into the upstream repository (sketch-city/harvey-api) by creating a pull request. Do this by
- In github click the "Compare & pull request" button that github will present to you once you've committed changes to local repo
- Describe what you changed and why; reference the issue(s) if any that your work addresses
- More information about keeping your fork in sync with the upstream repository may be found at https://help.github.com/articles/syncing-a-fork/
- More information about branching can be found at https://git-scm.com/book/id/v2/Git-Branching-Branches-in-a-Nutshell
(Coming Soon)
Documentation such as READMEs (e.g., this document) are written in markdown per the [Github standard] (https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/)
- Hosted on Heroku with PostGres
- Uses ActiveJob (currently with sucker_punch)
- MiniTest with Rails system tests

But the API wouldn't mean anything without our volunteers:
- "PG::ConnectionBad" Looks like:
PG::ConnectionBad: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
Postgres is not running OR there is a connection problem to the database.
