Installation

Requirements

Before you get started, the following needs to be installed:

• Ruby. Version 2.2.2 is currently used and we don't guarantee everything works with other versions. If you need multiple versions of Ruby, RVM is recommended.
• RubyGems
• Bundler: gem install bundler
• Git
• A database. Only PostgreSQL has been tested, so we give no guarantees that other databases work. To install postgresql run: sudo apt-get install postgresql

Setting up the development environment

1. Get the code. Cloning this git repo is probably easiest way:

git clone https://github.com/sasasekaric/TestBlog.git

1. Create a database.yml file by copying the example database configuration:

cp .env.example .env

1. Setup the database:

bin/setup
