This is a rewrite of an android app in Ember.js backed by Couchbase.
To run locally, you'll need CouchDB to serve the data. sudo apt-get install couchdb in Ubuntu. The program relies on views to operate. To create these, run:
COUCH_USER=will COUCH_PASS=secret node bin/make_views.js
The application is currently set up to deploy to Heroku. Though the application is straight HTML/JS there are issues passing credentials and cookies to ports other than 80. So, the Rack setup runs a reverse proxy — everything under /db/ gets sent to the Couch server which is configured in config.ru.
The application can also be built with Cordova to run on a mobile device. Simply execute cordova run android to run the app.
