The application expects to run against Postgres.
To start the application run bundle install, then rake db:migrate, and rails s. your application will be available at http://localhost:3000/
You will then be able to access the admin console at http://localhost:3000/admin. You will have to log in using the default admin user with username: admin@example.com and password: password.
I installed the devise gem which does User management for us so we can change this default admin user before the website gets posted up on Heroku.
Users are authenticated using the Devise gem.
The Paperclip gem is used to handle content images. Had to downgrade to version 3.5.4 to prevent failure to store images due to spoofing.
Instead of specifying an accompanying cardinal direction when defining latitude and longitude, this application uses negative values to define latitudes south of the equator and longitudes west of the Greenwich meridian. As such, the coordinates have the following accepted range (in degrees):
- Latitude [-90,90]
- Longitude [-180,180]
All beacon images are stored remotely in AWS S3.
Beacon UUID is currently automatically set. Change this generic value in the beacon edit page.
