#Ohana Web Search

Build Status Coverage Status Dependency Status Code Climate

Ohana Web Search is one of two Rails apps that come out of the box with the Ohana API platform. The other app is an admin interface that allows people to update the data. Both apps also serve as examples of what can be built on top of the social services data that the Ohana API exposes.

This project was developed by Code for America's 2013 San Mateo County, CA, fellowship team. Thanks to a grant from the Knight Foundation, @monfresh, @spara, and @anselmbradford will continue to push code in 2014.

Ohana Web Search aims to make it easy to find available services in a community, and to provide as much pertinent information as possible, such as travel directions, hours of operation, other services residents in need might be eligible for, etc. You can see a live example for services in San Mateo County, CA, here: http://smc-connect.org

We gladly welcome contributions. Below you will find instructions for installing the project and contributing.

See the Wiki.

Local Installation (for developers)

Follow the instructions in INSTALL.md.

Customization

Follow the instructions in CUSTOMIZE.md.

Running the tests

To test locally, you can run tests with this simple command:

script/test

To configure the way RSpec displays test results, create a file called .rspec in the root directory, and add the following to it:

--color
--format progress

The --color option allows you to see passing tests in green and failing ones in red. Otherwise, by default, you would just see a series of dots for passing tests, and the letter "F" for failing ones.

Parameters for the --format option are: progress (default - shows a series of dots), documentation, html, or textmate. More information can be found on the RSpec website.

To see the actual tests, browse through the spec directory.
