A distributed document management system web interface. Created by Scott Abernethy (github @scott-abernethy).

Development

Dev setup

The following setup has been tested on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS desktop and Windows 7 desktop.

1. Install git, mysql-server-5+, java6+

   # On Ubuntu, using webupd8 team PPA for java
   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install git mysql-server oracle-java6-installer

2. Fork the project source from https://github.com/ververve/docreg-web.git

3. Clone your fork to a local project directory

   git clone https://github.com/YOURGITHUBACCOUNT/docreg-web.git

4. Create a new database 'docregweb', using the project schema

   mysql -u root -p < src/main/resources/schema

5. Start SBT console

   # On Ubuntu
   ./sbt

   # On Windows
   sbt.bat

6. (In SBT) Start the app (note this will take a long time as SBT downloads all the project dependencies)

   > container:start

   Note that during development, to automatically reload the app after making a file change, use this command instead

   > ~;container:start; container:reload /

7. Open a browser on http://localhost:9090/ to view the running app.

   In development mode, login with username bruce or peter or sue, with no password.

8. (In SBT) Setup Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA project

   # either ...
   > eclipse with-source=true
   # ... or ...
   > gen-idea
