## Quickstart
Before you start, make sure you have
1. Redis installed and running at 127.0.0.1:6379
2. MongoDB installed and running at 127.0.0.1:27017 (OR specify the host and port in config/env/all)
Also make sure to install DNS Masq or equivalent if running it locally on your computer (look at dns_masq_setup_osx for instructions on OSX)
Install dependencies first.
```bash
$ npm install
$ bower install
```
Setup environment.
```bash
$ grunt build
```
Create your user account
```bash
$ node ./scripts/setup.js
```
OR create your .env file
```
GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID=yourGAID
PRERENDER_TOKEN=yourPrerender.ioToken
COVERALLS_REPO_TOKEN=yourCoveralls.ioToken
MAILER_EMAIL_ID=SMTP_Injection
MAILER_FROM=noreply@yourdomain.com
MAILER_PASSWORD=your_sparkpost_apikey
MAILER_SERVICE_PROVIDER=SparkPost
BASE_URL=yourdomain.com
DSN_KEY=yourPrivateRavenKey
```
##___Important Note___: Make sure your BASE_URL matches the domain of your server or TellForm won't work!
Side note: ___Currently we are using Raven and Sentry [https://www.getsentry.com](https://www.getsentry.com) for error logging. To use it you must provide a valid private DSN key in your .env file and a public DSN key in app/views/layout.index.html___
Edit the `env` config in gruntfile.js to make sure your .env file is being used. If you don't include this your app won't run
To run development version:
Set ```NODE_ENV=development``` in .env file
```$ grunt```
To run production version:
Set ```NODE_ENV=production``` in .env file
```$ grunt```
Your application should run on port 3000 or the port you specified in your .env file, so in your browser just go to [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000)
##Deploying with Docker
To deploy with docker, first install docker [https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/](here).
Then run these commands
```
$ docker run -p 27017:27017 -d --name some-mongo mongo
$ docker run -p 6379:6379 -d --name some-redis redis
$ docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 --link some-redis:redis-db --link some-mongo:db tellform/development
```
## Testing Your Application
You can run the full test suite included with MEAN.JS with the test task:
```
$ grunt test
```
This will run both the server-side tests (located in the app/tests/ directory) and the client-side tests (located in the public/modules/*/tests/).
To execute only the server tests, run the test:server task:
```
$ grunt test:server
```
And to run only the client tests, run the test:client task:
```
$ grunt test:client
```
Currently the live example uses heroku github deployments. The Docker file is out of date and does not work. If someone wishes to get it working feel free to submit a pull request.
To calculate your total test coverage with Istanbul, run the coverage task
```bash
$ grunt coverage
```
To calculate your server-side test coverage with Istanbul, run the coverage task
```bash
$ grunt coverage:server
```
To calculate your client-side test coverage with Istanbul, run the coverage task
```bash
$ grunt coverage:client
```
