BASED ON: https://github.com/pauldix/service-oriented-design-with-ruby/tree/master/chapter_01

Getting Started

if you don't have bundler installed, then please do the following:

$ gem install bundler --version=1.0.7

Remove Gemfile.lock:

$ rm Gemfile.lock

Then install the gems within the root of the project:

$ bundle install

Migrating the Database (local)

To create a local development or test database (pick one):

$ rake db:migrate SINATRA_ENV=test
$ rake db:migrate SINATRA_ENV=development

Running the app (local)

Run the Sinatra service. Use the -e flag, to specify test or development. The test environment will create a database entry

$ ruby service.rb -e test

To view service, point browser to: http://localhost:4567/... or use curl:

$ curl localhost:4567/api/v1/users/paul
$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"Ray", "email":"soumyaray@fiction.net", "bio":"prof" }' http://localhost:4567/api/v1/users

note: the second curl command is sending a request json data in the HTTP body

Publishing on Heroku

###Create a new Heroku app (skip if you already made one)

$ heroku create <name-of-your-app>

You can see your app on heroku.com now.

###Send repo to Heroku:

$ git push heroku master

notes on git push:

1. this will start the sinatra app running on heroku
2. no database yet -- accessing your sinatra app will cause it to crash

Configure Heroku to run in production:

$ heroku config:add SINATRA_ENV=production

notes on heroku config:add:

1. this is equivalent to local cmd: ruby app.rb -e production
2. adding an environment variable restarts the sinatra app on heroku

Create the database on Heroku:

$ heroku run rake db:migrate

You will have to restart the app now because it never connected to the database:

Restart Sinatra app:

do this from the sinatra app's root directory:

$ heroku restart

Your app is up and running! If it isn't, check the logs...

Check for logged errors:

$heroku logs

Ignore below:

The following does not yet work -- please ignore for now

To test service (note, may not work on latest code version): rspec spec/client_spec.rb
