mentoring


Connecting mentors and students.

Getting started

Install Ruby 2.1.5

Using rvm

rvm install 2.1.5

Using rbenv

rbenv install 2.1.5
rbenv global 2.1.5

Install the gems

gem install bundler
bundle install --without production

Setup the database

bundle exec rake db:create
bundle exec rake db:migrate

Enable Github authentication

Create an application at https://github.com/settings/applications/new with http://localhost:3000 as the Homepage URL and http://localhost:3000/members/auth/github/callback as the Authorization callback URL.

Once your development application is setup, create a file named .env in the root of the application folder with the GitHub key and secret like so:

GITHUB_KEY=YOUR_KEY
GITHUB_SECRET=YOUR_SECRET

Note: Windows doesn't like creating a file named .env so do the following from a cmd prompt in your application folder:

echo GITHUB_KEY=YOUR_KEY >> .env
echo GITHUB_SECRET=YOUR_SECRET >> .env

Run the tests

bundle exec rake
