Beehive

Beehive is an open-source Web application written in Rails 4 designed to facilitate the matching of students (in particular, but not necessarily, undergraduate students) to research positions offered by faculty at the university. Beehive uses tags and user-specified parameters to suggest research positions for students, manages the application to jobs by students and allows for the submission of a resume and/or transcript in the research application.

How to run this Ruby on Rails application?

1. Download Docker
2. Create a file called 'config/database.yml'
3. Boot the application
   • Terminal Command: docker-compose up
4. In another terminal, do the following rake commands:
   • rake db:setup_yml
   • rake ldap:setup
5. Create the database
   • In another terminal, run: docker-compose run web rake db:create:all
   • Afterwards, run: docker-compose run web rake db:migrate
6. Within a browser, open: localhost:3000
7. [Optional] Boot the application again
   • Same procedure as step 2
   • Reminder: Delete the file tmp/pids/server.pid if you stop the application with Ctrl-C in the same shell in which you executed the docker-compose up
8. To stop the application, run docker-compose down in your project directory (preferably in a different shell than the one in which you executed the docker-compose up)
