Deals and Events in NZ

• Responsive web application built to look out single/combined deals in New Zealand.
• Allows importing deals/events from BookMe and EventFinda websites.
• Events filtered by Price and Keywords ("tours", "hotels", "food", "drinks", "beaches" and "fun").
• Results returned from API cached within the application. Expiration time: 1 hour.

1. Development

Clone repository:

git clone git@github.com:juanroldan1989/my-budget-app.git

Install gems:

bundle install

Setup DB:

rake db:create db:migrate db:test:prepare

1.1 Import deals from BookMe.co.nz:

Scrapping events is the only way, there's no API available:

rake get:deals:from:book_me

1.2 Import deals from EventFinda.co.nz:

• Get a developer account (free) first: http://www.eventfinda.co.nz/api/v2/index

• Setup credentials into config/application.yml file:

cp config/application.sample.yml config/application.yml

Run import task (implemented with event_finda_ruby gem):

rake get:deals:from:event_finda

1.3 Combine deals from both websites

rake deals:set:combined

1.4 Starting up

Validate test suite:

rspec spec

Launch app:

foreman start

1.5 Redis

Having Redis setup, start looking for events. Stored keys can be checked like this:

$ redis-cli
127.0.0.1:6379> select "0"
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> keys **
 1) "/v1/deals/by_price/0/by_price_lower_than/2"
 2) "/v1/deals/by_price/0/keywords_search/82"
 3) "/v1/deals/by_price/0/by_price_lower_than/3/keywords_search/126"
 4) "/v1/deals/by_price/0/by_price_lower_than/2/keywords_search/209"
