Github Issues

Source code for http://github-issues.lostpropertyhq.com lets users log-in with their Github account and export repo issues as excel documents.

Getting set-up for development

Is you are accessing a private repo you will need to set your Github password as an environment variable.

export GITHUB_PASSWORD='your_github_password'
export GITHUB_USER='your_github_username'

It appears the user needs write access to your repository in order for them to be able to write issues with labels.

Create database and role.

psql -h localhost
CREATE ROLE feedback LOGIN CREATEDB;
CREATE DATABASE feedback WITH OWNER feedback ENCODING 'UTF8';

or:

createuser feedback --createdb --login
createdb --owner feedback --encoding='utf-8' --template=template0 feedback

Note

The database instructions provided here are postgres specific
We create the feedback role without a password. The application settings default to using password-less connections. You may need to create a different settings module or adjust pg_hba.conf to allow connection without passwords

Install the application in develop mode.

python setup.py develop

Set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE env var.

export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=feedback.settings.local

Now sync the DB

python manage.py syncdb --migrate

export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=feedback.settings.local
python manage.py runserver

py.test

Note you may need to run add2virtualenv . so py.test can find the your setting corrrectly.
