This tool is being developed by Epimorphics on behalf of EA and Defra. We will provide a web application for generating standardised bathing water signage for designated bathing waters in England.

This is a fairly straightforward Rails application, with the exception that there is no back-end database. Details of bathing waters to be displayed on signage are obtained from the bathing water quality linked-data API. The only other state that is stored is the logos of local authorities, so that bathing water controllers from LA's only need to upload their authority's logo once. These logos are stored on an Amazon S3 bucket.
Install:
git clone [email protected]:DEFRA/bwq-signage.git
cd bwq-signage
bundle
Test:
rails test
Note that the PDF download test currently requires the application to be running on
localhost, as the test uses Chrome headless to visit the page and convert rendered HTML
to PDF. This test is disabled in Travis. To run during development, ensure that
rails server is running in another terminal.
Local authority logos are cached in S3. See services/logo_manager.rb for details. AWS
credentials are managed via config/initializers/aws.rb. Currently, production AWS
credentials are configured separately via the deployment automation scripts.
