Setup Instructions

First, request an API key from propublica

  1. bundle install
  2. bundle exec figaro install
  3. add govt_api_key: <your api key> to application.yml
  4. rails db:create
  5. rails db:migrate

Note: running bundle exec figaro install will create a hidden application.yml file in the config directory. If you don't see this file in your text editor, you may need to navigate to this directory to open the file from your command line.

  1. cd config
  2. ls -la should show the new application.yml file
  3. atom application.yml (or the equivalent command for your text editor)
  4. cd .. to return to the root directory of your app
