Citizen Participation and Open Government Application

This is the opensource code repository of the eParticipation website originally developed for the Madrid City government eParticipation website

Development started on 2015 July 15th. Code was deployed to production on 2015 september 7th to decide.madrid.es. Since then new features are added often. You can take a look at the current features in the docs and future features in the open issues list.

The application backend is written in the Ruby language using the Ruby on Rails framework.

Frontend tools used include SCSS over Foundation for the styles.

Prerequisites: install git, Ruby 2.2.3, bundler gem, ghostscript and PostgreSQL (>=9.4).

cp config/secrets.yml.example config/secrets.yml

RAILS_ENV=test rake db:setup

You can use the default admin user from the seeds file:

user: [email protected] pass: 12345678

But for some actions like voting, you will need a verified user, the seeds file also includes one:

user: [email protected] pass: 12345678

See CUSTOMIZE_ES.md

To test authentication services with external OAuth suppliers - right now Twitter, Facebook and Google - you'll need to create an "application" in each of the supported platforms and set the key and secret provided in your secrets.yml

In the case of Google, verify that the APIs Contacts API and Google+ API are enabled for the application.
