TWS

Development

TWS is a simple Rails+Postgres app.

Prerequisites:

• Ruby
• Postgres

bundle install
createuser tws -d       # create postgres role
rake db:create          # create the dev and test databases
gem install mailcatcher # install local mail server interceptor
mailcatcher             # start background server to intercept mail
rake db:seed_dev        # Loads schema and creates some custom play data
rails s

# Log in with user@tws.com with password `secret1234`

Running Tests

bundle install
rake

Mail

In development, all outgoing email will be intercepted by mailcatcher and will be previewable at http://localhost:1080. The mailcatcher instance is automatically started by the dev Procfile. You'll need to run gem install mailcatcher though, since it's not part of the Gemfile.
