Running Barkeep locally

Make sure you're up to date on Ruby gems (bundle install) and on migrations (ruby script/run_migrations.rb).

$ redis-server # run Redis (on Linux it is probably already running via an init script; on Mac with Homebrew it is probably running via a Launch Agent)
$ bin/run_app.bash # run the server
# navigate to localhost:8040

These are somewhat optional services to run while developing. These background jobs periodically fetch new commits, pre-generate commit diffs, and send emails when comments are posted.

$ script/run_clockwork.rb # run periodic cron jobs
$ script/run_resque.rb

If you want to run all three Barkeep services together, you can do so using foreman.

$ bundle exec foreman start

You can view the Resque dashboard and inspect failed Resque jobs by navigating to http://localhost:8040/resque.

Running Unit/Integration Test

Before you execute bundle exec rake test to run all the tests, you need to execute the git commands below. That's because barkeep uses a git submodule as a fixture for unit tests.

$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
$ bundle exec rake test
