Citizen Participation and Open Government Application
You can access the main website of the project at http://consuldemocracy.org where you can find documentation about the use of the platform, videos, and links to the community space.
NOTE: For more detailed instructions, check the local installation docs.
Prerequisites: install git, Ruby 3.2.5, CMake, pkg-config, Node.js 18.20.3, ImageMagick and PostgreSQL (>=9.5).
Note: The bin/setup
command below might fail if you've configured a username and password for PostgreSQL. If that's the case, edit the lines containing username:
and password:
(adding your credentials) in the config/database.yml
file and run bin/setup
again.
Run the app locally:
You can run the tests with:
Note: running the whole test suite on your machine might take more than an hour, so it's strongly recommended that you setup a Continuous Integration system in order to run them using parallel jobs every time you open or modify a pull request (if you use GitHub Actions or GitLab CI, this is already configured in .github/workflows/tests.yml
and .gitlab-ci.yml
) and only run tests related to your current task while developing on your machine. When you configure the application for the first time, it's recommended that you run at least one test in spec/models/
and one test in spec/system/
to check your machine is properly configured to run the tests.
You can use the default admin user from the seeds file:
user: admin@consul.dev pass: 12345678
But for some actions like voting, you will need a verified user, the seeds file also includes one:
user: verified@consul.dev pass: 12345678
