Spree Prediction IO

I want to use PredictionIO's recommendation engines for my Spree shops. This gem provides tasks to upload user, product and conversions. Step 2 is to retrieve the computed data from PredictionIO and present that to my users.

Installation

PredictionIO

See the PredictionIO site for installation instructions: http://docs.prediction.io/current/installation/index.html

Spree Prediction IO

Add spree_prediction_io to your Gemfile:

gem 'spree_prediction_io', github: 'Willianvdv/spree_prediction_io'

Place your PredictionIO api key in config/application.yml. For now I'm using Figaro, in the future I will use the Spree configuration.

Sync your data

Push data

$ bundle exec rake predictionio:push:all
