A padrino gem, showing seminars for the ecovillage Sieben Linden homepage. On the way to a real "GUestSYstem". Except for a twist in registration creation (where data also is pushed to a legacy system using a CouchDB) the gusy solution should be rather general. If you want to abstract from this, send us a line, it should not be too difficult to sort it out.
Add the following to your Gemfile:
gem 'gusy'and mount the app in your apps.rb:
Padrino.mount("Gusy::App").to("/gusy")For development, this gem can be run as a standalone Padrino application as you would expect from a normal one:
$ bundle exec padrino startThe Rakefile also works like the normal Padrino one and supports all standard components.
For Spec/Testing, a test db has to be set up and seeded. This is done via
rm db/gusy_test.db
padrino rake -e test sq:migrate
padrino rake -e test db:seed
You can also use that seed data during development, with
rm db/gusy_development.db
padrino rake -e development sq:migrate
padrino rake -e development db:seed
Like any other standard sinatra/padrino/rack app.
Here I will sketch an involved example for a debian system with apache and phusion passenger and a user with restricted rights (say, 'gusy').
- Install
rvm. - Configure passenger.conf to point to the rvm ruby, like PassengerDefaultRuby /home/gusy/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p481/wrappers/ruby
- Checkout gusy (the much cleaner gem install path is not yet walked upon), e.g. to /home/gusy/production)
- Create a VirtualHost in apache config files, point DocumentRoot /home/gusy/production ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/gusy.production.error.log
- Also specify the (/public) directory and Allow from all Options -MultiViews
- Ensure that the database is populated.
