Before you begin, you'll need to install stuff:
2014-09-03 15:38:43 +00:00
2015-11-23 01:54:36 +00:00
Ruby, Git, and Rails: http://railsinstaller.org/en
PostgreSQL 9.2: http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload
nodejs: http://nodejs.org/download

During the installation of the PostgreSQL database, you'll need to choose a database password. Anything is fine, just note down what you choose.

Once you are ready, create a new folder to hold this and any other git repositories. As an example, let's pretend you've chose C:\git, and made that folder writable by your user account.
2014-10-18 12:52:36 +00:00
2015-11-03 11:10:21 +00:00
Now you are ready to clone the Metamaps git repository:
2014-09-03 15:38:43 +00:00
git clone https://github.com/metamaps/metamaps_gen002.git --branch develop
2014-09-03 15:38:43 +00:00
cd metamaps_gen002
bundle install
2015-11-03 11:10:21 +00:00
The third `bundle install` command downloads and installs the rubygem dependencies of Metamaps.
At this point you should be in C:\git\metamaps_gen002, or whatever equivalent directory you've chosen. The next step is to set up your database configuration. From the metamaps_gen002 directory, run
start config
2014-09-03 15:38:43 +00:00
This command will open a Windows Explorer window of the "config" directory of Metamaps. Copy `.example-env`, and rename the copy to `.env`. Edit the file and set the DB_PASSWORD to be whatever you set up with postgres earlier. Once you're done, then move back into the command prompt. The next few commands will fail unless `.env` is correctly configured and Postgres is running.
2014-09-03 15:38:43 +00:00
rake db:create
rake db:schema:load
rake db:fixtures:load
2015-11-03 11:10:21 +00:00
And you're set up! At this point, you should be able to run the server at any time with only one command; you don't need to repeat any of the previous steps again. The command to run the server is:
2014-09-03 15:38:43 +00:00
rails s
Navigate your browser to localhost:3000 once you have the server running
