README.md

Getting started

1. Install python 3.3 and postgresql (we use a new generator feature only available in 3.3)

2. Clone the project with submodules
   git clone --recursive [email protected]:LearnProgramming/lpmc-site.git

3. It would be best to install python dependencies just for the project by using a virtual environment
   pyvenv-3.3 venv
source venv/bin/activate

4. Install pip in the venv
   wget https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
python3 get-pip.py

5. Install dependencies from the requirements file
   pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   momoko requires psycopg2 which requires python3-dev and libpg-dev or your distro's equivalent

6. In pg_hba.conf (usually at /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/), set local access to trust (as opposed to the default peer)

7. Create an lpmc user/role and database
   sudo psql
> create user lpmc;
> create database lpmc;
> grant all privileges on database lpmc to lpmc;

8. Restart postgresql
   sudo invoke-rc.d postgresql restart

9. Load the schema
   psql -U lpmc < schema.sql

10. Visit the GitHub applications page and register a new developer application. The authorization callback URL should probably be http://localhost:8888/github_oauth

11. Copy the config.yaml.example to config.yaml and edit the configuration

12. You can now run the server
    ./server.py
    Visit http://localhost:8888 or the specified port in config.yaml

Using Vagrant

If you want to set up a virtual machine for this project using Vagrant and VirtualBox, simply follow step 2 to clone the project and run vagrant up. Once complete you can skip to step 10 and do the rest of the steps in vagrant ssh.
