Wake Democrat Tools

Summary

Java program + bash script to help parse voter records and discover likely contributors.

Get the code

The easiest way to get started with the code is to create your own fork, and then clone your fork:

$ git clone git@github.com:<you>/wakedems.git
$ cd wakedems
$ git remote add upstream git://github.com/robstryker/wakedems.git

At any time, you can pull changes from the upstream and merge them onto your master:

$ git checkout master               # switches to the 'master' branch
$ git pull upstream master          # fetches all 'upstream' changes and merges 'upstream/master' onto your 'master' branch
$ git push origin                   # pushes all the updates to your fork, which should be in-sync with 'upstream'

The general idea is to keep your 'master' branch in-sync with the 'upstream/master'.

Building

Run the following commands to build a distribution

$ cd wakedems
$ mvn clean install

Running / using the distribution

Run the following commands to extract, browse, and use the distribution

$ cd distribution/target/
$ unzip wake.voter.reports.distribution-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT-bin.zip
$ cd wake.voter.reports.distribution-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT/wakeVoter/bin
$ ./downloadData.sh
$ ./runAllReports.sh

Import the project into eclipse

There's no clean maven build for this, so you'll just have to import it into eclipse and run the MyMain file for now. Sorry.
