Southwest Checkin 2.0

This is a fork of aortbals/master.

  • This master branch contains changes which allow the app to run wiht the free version of MailGun for email.
  • The passenger-nginx branch contains changes for deployment on Nginx using Passenger and MySQL instead of Postgres. Rails version has also been upgraded in this branch for json support in MySQL. Email is handled with a local SMTP server (which could simply relay to Gmail).

Deploy

Automatically checks in passengers for their Southwest Flight.

Version 2.0 of this project is a complete rewrite of the service. The brittle HTML parsing and form submissions are a thing of the past. A much better approach is being taken to automate checkins. And, importantly, the new version has a robust test suite. It is even written in a new language (Ruby) and framework (Rails).

If you are interested in the old version, see the 1.0 branch.

  2. Required dependencies

    • Ruby 2.2 or greater
    • Postgres
    • Redis
  3. After installing the aforementioned dependencies, install the ruby dependencies:

  4. Create and seed the database:

    rake db:create db:migrate db:seed
  5. Adding some basic test data for development:

    rake dev:prime
  6. Copy .env.example to .env. The defaults should work in development.

    cp .env.example .env
  7. Run the tests:

    rspec
  8. Run the development server:

    rails s
    
  9. Run sidekiq to process jobs:

    bundle exec sidekiq
