Lumbergh

Lumbergh is the Mozilla careers website. It is a playdoh-based site that displays open jobs.

Setup

These instructions assume you have git, python, and pip installed. If you don't have pip installed, you can install it with easy_install pip.

1. Start by getting the source:

   $ git clone --recursive git@github.com:mozilla/lumbergh.git
   $ cd lumbergh

   Note you may want to fork and clone the repo as described in the github docs if you are doing active development.

2. Create a virtualenv for Lumbergh. Skip the first step if you already have virtualenv installed.

   $ pip install virtualenv
   $ virtualenv venv
   $ source venv/bin/activate

3. Install the compiled requirements:

   $ pip install -r requirements/compiled.txt

4. Set up a local MySQL database. The MySQL Installation Documentation explains how to do this. Make sure your DB is utf8.

5. Configure your local settings by copying careers/settings/local.py-dist to careers/settings/local.py and customizing the settings in it:

   $ cp settings/local.py-dist settings/local.py

   The file is commented to explain what each setting does and how to customize them.

   If you wish to have jobs appear locally make sure JOBVITE_URI is set.

6. Initialize your database structure:

   $ python manage.py syncdb
   $ python manage.py migrate

Running the Development Server

You can launch the development server like so:

$ python manage.py runserver

Updating Jobs

You can update jobs so they appear locally by running:

$ python manage.py syncjobvite
