The following steps are recommended. If you already have some of these on your machine, then you can skip those steps accordingly. You are strongly recommended to use Mac-OS or Linux (such as Ubuntu) for this project. Using Windows will cause a lot of support problems that I may not be able to help you with.

  1. Install Git (for version control) This process can be different for Linux and for Mac-OS. Git website

  2. Install RVM (for Ruby version management and gems management) RVM website

  3. Install Ruby (We are using 1.9.3 for this project)

rvm install 1.9.3

  1. Install Rubygems (for using various Ruby libraries) Rubygems Install

  2. Install Rails (We are using Rails 3.1 currently and may convert to Rails 3.2 in the near future)

gem install Rails -v='3.1.3'

  1. Install MongoDB (We are using MongoDB for all database need and may introduce PostgreSQL in the future) MongoDB install

  2. Download project

git clone [email protected]:zben/talent-search.git

  1. Seed project data I am using seedbank gem currently to seed different groups of data. The seeded data will only be on your local machine.

rake db:seed

  1. Run project *rails server
