Setup

After you have cloned this repo, follow these steps to run the app:

1. Run the setup script to set up your machine with the necessary dependencies:

   bin/setup
   

2. Precompile the assets:

   bundle exec rake assets:precompile
   

3. Start the Rails server:

   bundle exec rails server
   

   You should now be able to view your app at http://localhost:3000.

Notes

You will run into this error if you try to run the server without precompiling the assets first:

  bin/rails aborted!
  Errno::EINVAL: Invalid argument

Go ahead and clear the tmp, then precompile the assets and then start the server or run migrations or whatever.

  bundle exec rake tmp:clear --trace
  bundle exec rake assets:precompile
  bundle exec rails command

How to deploy to Fly.io

This is the documentation link: https://fly.io/docs/getting-started/rails/

1. Provision Rails and Postgres Servers: To configure and launch your Rails app, you can use fly launch and follow the wizard. This will create a new app on Fly, provision a Postgres database, and configure your app to use it. flyctl launch

2. Deploy your application: flyctl deploy This will take a few seconds as it uploads your application, builds a machine image, deploys the images, and then monitors to ensure it starts successfully. Once complete visit your app with the following command: flyctl open If all went well, you’ll see your Rails application homepage.

3. View log files: flyctl logs This shows the past few log file entries and tails your production log files. Rails stack tracebacks can be lengthy, and the information you often want to see is at the top. If not enough information is available in the fly logs command, try running fly dashboard, and select Monitoring in the left hand column.

4. Open a Rails console: flyctl console or flyctl ssh console If you are running with sqlite3 or a volume, you will need to ssh into an existing machine. You may need to first make sure that you have enough memory to accommodate the additional session. fly ssh console --pty -C "/rails/bin/rails console"
