Getting Started

• Clone repo
• Run bundle install
• Run rake db:migrate
• Run rails server
• If you want to populate your database with airport and nav aid data. You can find the sources I used originally below, but you'll have to write a script to ingest the data into your local app.
• Arelplane uses a service called MapSnap to generate images of maps. If you want to run this service, download it, get it running, and add a config/local_env.yml to your Arelplane repo with credentials for MapSnap. It should look like this:

  MAPSNAP_ROOT_URL: 'http://localhost:8080'
  MAP_SNAP_API_KEY: 'your_api_key'

Airport data from:

• http://ourairports.com/data,
• http://www.wayforward.net/avdata/

Dependencies:

• PostgreSQL I recommend using Homebrew to install and manage your Postgres install.
• Check the Gemfile for now.
• MapSnap

Postgres:

To have launchd start postgresql now and restart at login:
  brew services start postgresql
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres start
