#What is Persianpreneur?

It's a list of awesome Persian entrepreneurs doing great work around the world. It's inspired by Beggars.co idea. We didn't know PHP so we rewrote the whole thing in Ruby on Rails.

Tasks

You can import a list of people by rake db:person:import You can also wipe off the database of 'persons' by rake db:person:clear

Deploy on AbarCloud

Follow the quick start guide to deploy it. You can also add a custom domain with SSL.

Deploy on Heroku

You need to remove therubyracer and execjs gems. Heroku doesn't need a js runtime.

Deploy elsewhere

Alternatively, you can use nodejs instead of execjs. It's was just more convenient to add a gem rather than asking all to install nodejs. Follow this guide!
