DISCLAIMER: This tutorial is liable to be out of date, and we don't necessarily support Windows development. If you are set on installing Metamaps on Windows, it may be worthwhile to look at the Mac and Ubuntu docs for up to date information on what Metamaps requires to run.
|
|
|
|
Before you begin, you'll need to install stuff:
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
Now you are ready to clone the Metamaps git repository:
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/metamaps/metamaps.git --branch develop
|
|
cd metamaps
|
|
bundle install
|
|
|
|
The third `bundle install` command downloads and installs the rubygem
|
|
dependencies of Metamaps.
|
|
|
|
You also need to install the ES6 code from the nodejs repositories:
|
|
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run build
|
|
|
|
At this point you should be in C:\git\metamaps, or whatever equivalent
|
|
directory you've chosen. The next step is to set up your database
|
|
configuration. From the metamaps directory, run
|
|
|
|
start config
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
rake db:create
|
|
rake db:schema:load
|
|
rake db:seed
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
rails s
|
|
|
|
Navigate your browser to localhost:3000 once you have the server running
|
|
|
|
Sign in with the default account
|
|
|
|
email: user@user.com
|
|
password: toolsplusconsciousness
|
|
|
|
OR create a new account at /join, and use access code 'qwertyui'
|
|
|
|
Start mapping and programming!
