You can follow these installation instructions to cut to the end of the tutorial.

Installation Instructions

These are the instructions to follow if you simply want to see the Ember application read data from the Rails application.

Prerequisites

You should have installed the following:

Ruby (version 1.9.3 or higher)
RVM
Node
Npm

Installation Steps

In your work directory, retrieve the Ember and Rails projects as one git cloning:

git clone https://github.com/Ember-SC/ember-sc-bostonember.git
cd ember-sc-bostonember

Ember:

Go into the embersc directory to set up the client system:
```
cd embersc
```
Install everything:
```
npm install
bower install
```
Run regression tests
```
ember server
```
Then browse http://localhost:4200/tests and watch them run.

Rails:

Go into the rails directory to set up rvm:

cd ../rails

Observe that the rvm gemset is created:

ruby-1.9.3-p545 - #gemset created /Users/SSmith/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p545@ember-sc-bostonember
ruby-1.9.3-p545 - #generating ember-sc-bostonember wrappers...........

If you don't have bundler installed, do so now:
```
gem install bundler
```
Install the gems:
```
bundle
```

Build the database:

rake db:create
rake db:migrate
rake db:seed

Try accessing the Rails application from a browser:

NOTE: The rails tests are not yet running; this will be followed up on shortly.
```
rails s
```
Then browse http://localhost:3000. You should get the standard Rails index page.

Test both together:

Start Ember referencing Rails:

ember server --proxy http://localhost:3000

Browse http://localhost:4200. Browse around and notice that you have

If you get further than we have, we would appreciate a PR from you, thanks!

Troubleshooting

This is currently running using ember-sc version 0.1.2. We try to keep it upgraded periodically to the latest-released ember-cli version.
