Down to Split is a web application that helps people manage their finances. Users can track the purchases they make, compare expenses to a weekly budget, split costs with their friends, and find the lowest price for an item at nearby stores.

Setup (for new devs!)

Installation (for OS X)

Ruby, Rails, and SQLite

You will need Ruby 2.2+, Ruby on Rails 4.2.0, and SQLite 3.

To install RVM and Ruby 2.2:

\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby=2.2.4

To install Rails 4.2.0:

gem install rails -v 4.2.0

To install SQLite 3: Follow the instructions here.

Files and Dependencies

Download the project files. Then cd into the newly created down-to-split directory:

git clone https://github.com/ohjay/down-to-split.git
cd down-to-split

Install dependencies:

gem install bundler
bundle install

Database Initialization

If you don't have it already, you'll need to install Postgres (yes, the actual application!). Download the appropriate package here, then follow the steps below in order to create and seed the database:

rake db:create
rake db:migrate
rake db:seed

Running the Application

Make sure that Postgres is running on port 5432. Usually, this is as simple as launching the Postgres app that you installed in the previous section. On OS X, you should see a little elephant pop up in the status bar if the launch is successful.

Once that's done, you'll want to start the server:

rails s # uses the default Rails port (3000)

At this point, you should be able to open the website by visiting localhost:3000 in your browser. Congratulations!
