Dependencies

Before generating your application, you will need:

• The Ruby language (version 1.9.3)
• Rails 3.2

Be sure to see Installing Rails 3.2 for detailed instructions and advice.

Getting Started

About Required Gems

The application uses the following gems:

• rails
• rspec-rails
• database_cleaner
• factory_girl_rails
• cucumber-rails
• capybara
• devise
• cancan
• rolify
• bootstrap-sass

See Example Gemfiles for Rails 3.2.

Install the Required Gems

Install the required gems on your computer:

$ bundle install

You can check which gems are installed on your computer with:

$ gem list --local

Keep in mind that you have installed these gems locally. When you deploy the app to another server, the same gems (and versions) must be available.

Create a Default User

Set Up a Database Seed File

You’ll want to set up a default user so you can easily log in to test the app. You can modify the file db/seeds.rb for your own name, email and password:

puts 'SETTING UP DEFAULT USER LOGIN'
user = User.create! :name => 'First User', :email => 'user@example.com', :password => 'please', :password_confirmation => 'please'
puts 'New user created: ' << user.name
user2 = User.create! :name => 'Second User', :email => 'user2@example.com', :password => 'please', :password_confirmation => 'please'
puts 'New user created: ' << user2.name
user.add_role :admin

Use the defaults or change the values for name, email, and password as you wish.

If you’ve generated the application with the option to install the Devise :confirmable module, there will be an extra attribute confirmed_at => Time.now for creation of a user.

Set the Database

Prepare the database and add the default user to the database by running the commands:

$ bundle exec rake db:migrate
$ bundle exec rake db:seed

Set the database for running tests:

$ bundle exec rake db:test:prepare
