Firstly this walkthrough is done with a 14.04 32bit install of Ubuntu.
All commands that I could are terminal based.
Lets check if all updates for the system are installed first
in terminal type
sudo apt-get update
now we need to install git
sudo apt-get install git
lets get our RVM installed (Ruby Version Manager) now this is fun because the package you will get from apt-get is outdated.
so we are going to use CURL to get RVM
sudo apt-get install curl
then lets install RVM with curl like this
curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin
[[ -s "$HOME/.profile" ]] && source "$HOME/.profile"
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
now we can actually install RVM
rvm requirements
running this will check your system for requirements as well so you will need to put your system password in.
alright now we can download metamaps from the master using git
git clone https://github.com/metamaps/metamaps_gen002.git
now there is a couple other things we are going to need which is nodejs, postgresql, libpq-dev and redis-server
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install postgresql
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
sudo apt-get install redis-server
Furthermore, if you want to be able to work on profile picture uploading, or use it you'll need ImageMagick. On Ubuntu, you can just go find ImageMagick in the Ubuntu Software Centre
Install the specific version of ruby needed this will take some time
rvm install ruby-2.1.3
Now we also need to rename your database file which is in ./config/database.default.yml to database.yml
now run inside your metamaps_gen002 folder
bundle install
in your top lvl directory for metamaps this is a lengthy process so you might want to go and make a coffee or something :)
alright now we need to make sure your postgres password is the same as it is listed in the DB file so we are going to set it by
sudo -u postgres psql
Select postgres like this
\password postgres
set the password to 3112
Then to quit
\q
now we can run the rake install and db creation
rake db:create
rake db:schema:load
rake db:fixtures:load
Execute the server:
rails s
and dont forget to run the other server for realtime... open a new terminal navigate to ./realtime and run
sudo apt-get install npm
npm install
nodejs realtime-server.js
Now you're all set enjoy your personal server of metamaps :)
Navigate your browser to localhost:3000 once you have the server running
