Getting Started

Installation

To get awesomebits working locally, you should do the following steps.

• git clone git@github.com:awesomefoundation/awesomebits.git (you may want to fork and add remotes as well)
• cd awesomebits
• bundle install
• rake create
• rake db:migrate
• rake db:seed
• rspec spec to ensure that tests pass

If that doesn't work (and it probably won't)

We've had a lot of reports of people having trouble getting the app up and running. These instructions may help, and if they do prove useful, we can merge them into the README.

Potential issues

You may encounter an issue installing capybara-webkit, getting an error like Command 'qmake -spec macx-g++' not available. On OS X, to fix this run brew install qt from your terminal, and then try to bundle install again. The error is due to that you're likely missing qt libraries needed to compile a native extension. On other platforms, more documentation and help is available on Stack Overflow
