Getting Started

Requirements

You'll need the following installed to run the template successfully:

• Ruby 2.5 or higher
• Bundler - gem install bundler
• Rails 6.0.0.rc2 or higher - gem install rails or gem install rails --pre\
• if using rbenv, run rbenv rehash after installing rails
• Yarn - brew install yarn or Install Yarn
• Foreman (optional) - gem install foreman - helps run all your processes in development

Creating a new app

rails new myapp -d postgresql -m https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arinthros/rails-template/master/template.rb

Or if you have downloaded this repo, you can reference template.rb locally:

rails new myapp -d postgresql -m ~/path/to/template.rb

To run your app, use foreman start.

This will run Procfile.dev via foreman start -f Procfile.dev as configured by the .foreman file and will launch the development processes rails server, sidekiq, and webpack-dev-server processes. You can also run them in separate terminals manually if you prefer.

A separate Procfile is generated for deploying to production.

Creating the first admin

rails c
Person.create!(first_name: 'John', last_name: 'Doe', email: 'john.doe@example.com', password: 'password', admin: true)
