RNTR

Build Status

The RNTR web platform (alpha) allows users to rent tools, household items, sports equipment, or nearly anything else from neighbors. Alternatively, RNTR allows users to monetize their underutilized posessions, helping convert junk into revenue.

Continuous Integration

On every pull request, Travis will automatically run and perform the following:

  • Clone from the pull request.
  • Read the travis.yml file from the root directory of the repo.
  • Run npm install.
  • Start the server.
  • Run tests from the test directory.

If any of the above fail, Travis will report what went wrong on the Github pull request page. If all of the above succeed, Travis will autodeploy to production when the pull request is merged to DEV-BRANCH.
