Getting started with OSRA

Updated almost 5 years ago by Nikita Avvakumov
Welcome to OSRA!

A project member will be glad to help you get set up in a live session - please email ... or post a request on our Slack channel if you already have access there. However, if you prefer, you can carry out the following setup steps on your own:

  1. Please read and follow Agile Ventures' general Getting Started guide. You will need accounts on Agile Ventures, GitHub, Google+, Pivotal Tracker and Slack.
  2. OSRA uses a PostgreSQL database. The easiest way to get this working on a Mac is by installing postgres.app.
  3. Visit our GitHub repository and fork it to your own GitHub account.
  4. Clone the OSRA repository to your computer with git clone https://github.com/YourName/osra.gitor git clone git@github.com:YourName/osra.git depending on your GitHub configuration.
  5. Add the Agile Ventures OSRA repository as 'upstream' remote with
    git remote add upstream https://github.com/AgileVentures/osra.git
  6. Run bundle install
  7. Run bundle exec rake db:setup and bundle exec rake db:test:prepare
  8. To ensure that the setup worked, run bundle exec rspec spec/ and bundle exec cucumber and make sure that all test pass.
The branch of the repository you forked and cloned is called 'develop'. You should do all work locally in a new feature branch, then push that branch up to your GitHub repo and submit a pull request for your code to be merged into the official OSRA 'develop' branch. 

If you didn't understand parts or the whole of the above, don't despair and - most importantly - don't get discouraged! OSRA team members are available to help you at every step of the process. We welcome the opportunity to work with developers of all backgrounds and levels - please join us!
