Staying up-to-date

General

Example using Firefox and RSSOWL

Click on the newsfeed icon in the address bar Abonnieren mit Firefox

Copy the URL from the address bar RSS URL in Firefox

Create a new Feed in RSSOWL and paste the just copied URL in the form RSSOWL Feed

When updating the feed in RSSOWL (or any other RSS reader of your choice) time after time all new papers matching the search query criteria will appear.

Setup

There are two ways to run this app: using a local development setup, or using docker.

Local machine setup

  1. Install Ruby, Bundler, Elasticsearch
  2. Start Elasticsearch: elasticsearch
  3. Setup Rails app: bundle && bundle exec rake db:setup
  4. See “Importing data via Allris Scraper” below
  5. Start Rails server: bundle exec rails s
  6. Open localhost:3000

Using Container (Docker/Podman/…)

  1. Install Yarn
  2. Build the application: yarn && yarn build:css
  3. Install Docker and Docker Compose
  4. Start the application: docker-compose up
  5. Initialize the database: docker exec stadtratmonitor-web sh -c "rake db:setup && rake import_papers && rake index:rebuild"
  6. Open localhost:3000

Importing data via Allris Scraper (optional)

  1. You can use our Allris Scraper to download the papers (resp. their links) from the OPARL API, this will produce an input.json file
  2. Put this input.json to a public web server and set the URL to this file then in: app/controllers/import_controller.rb and lib/tasks/import_papers.rake

Running tests

Assuming docker and docker-compose is installed:

  1. docker-compose run web bin/run-tests
