#OSEM The Open Source Event Manager. An event management tool tailored to Free and Open Source Software conferences.

Install OSEM

You can run rails apps in different modes (development, production). For more information about rails and what it can do, see the rails guides.

Run OSEM in development

1. Clone the git repository to the directory you want Apache to serve the content from.

git clone https://github.com/openSUSE/osem.git

2. Install all the ruby gems.

bundle install

3. Install ImageMagick from your distribution repository
4. Generate secret key for devise and the rails app with

rake secret

Look at config/config.yml.example.

5. Copy the sample configuration files and adapt them

cp config/config.yml.example config/config.yml
cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml

6. Setup the database

bundle exec rake db:setup

7. Run OSEM

rails server

8. Visit the APP at

http://localhost:3000

9. Sign up, the first user will be automatically assigned the admin role.

Run OSEM in production

We recommend to run OSEM in production with mod_passenger and the apache web-server. There are tons of guides on how to deploy rails apps on various base operating systems. Check Google ;-)

Documentation

OSEM is extensively (some would say maniacally ;-) documented. You can generate a nice HTML documentation with ''rdoc''

bundle exec rdoc --op doc/app --all -f fivefish app 
xdg-open doc/app/index.html 

Testing

We are using rspec+capybara+factory girl to build test suite. You should run it continuously when you are developing, via:

bundle exec guard

This uses spring to provide a fast feedback loop for the red/green cycle.
