QUICK START

Running from sources (latest and greatest features)

  1. Clone the git repo

     git clone git://github.com/schof/spree.git spree
    
  2. Create the necessary config/database.yml file

  3. Install the gem dependencies

     rake gems:install
    
  4. Bootstrap the database (run the migrations, create admin account, optionally load sample data.)

     rake db:bootstrap
    
  5. Start the server

     script/server
    

Running the Gem

  1. Install spree Gem

     sudo gem install spree
    

    NOTE: This may take a while. The gem currently includes a frozen version of Rails 2.0.2

  2. Create Spree Application

     spree <app_name>
    
  3. Create your database and edit the config/database.yml to taste.

     rake db:create
    

    You can skip this step if using sqlite3 as your database.

  4. Bootstrap

     cd <app-name>
     rake db:bootstrap
    
  5. Launch Application
