#Grape Basic Project This project has the basic working structure for a grape application that connects to a MongoDB database.

##Requirements

• Vagrant (from version 1.6.3 to 1.7.2)
• VirtualBox

##Setting up dev environment

Run $ vagrant up to create the vm.

We are using SaltStack as the provisioning tool. If you need to add new software to the app, you will have to add a Salt State file under salt/roots/ folder.

If you are not using Vagrant (but I recommend using it), you will need to install the following software in your machine:

• Ruby 2
• MongoDB
• Manually run $ bundle install to download all the dependencies.

##Running the app: MongoDB should already be running, but if not run $ mongod

To run the server do rake app

The application will run on port 9292. To test if it's working, try visiting this address in your browser:

http://localhost:9292/api/comments

Run rake app_stop to stop the app

##Tests

Tests are built using Rspec

##Running tests: While in the root of the project run $ rake test. This will run every test in the project.

You can run different kinds of tests by doing:

$ rake test_unit for unit tests

$ rake test_integration for integration tests

$ rake test_functional for functional tests
