Buckinghamshire Adoption Service

Changes here automatically deploy to staging, but not production.

A rails app with a react-powered frontend for the Buckinghamshire adoption service. Makes use of Fae CMS.

It:

  • has an interactive quiz that saves the user's answers to localStorage
  • uses those saved answers to build a personalised "readiness plan"
  • lets the user email that plan to themselves or someone else
  • pulls in a dynamic list of adoption information events from Eventbrite
  • an interface to manage all that content for users at /admin

Prerequisites

  • node and yarn
  • ruby 2.4.1
  • rails 5.2

Running it locally

  1. Clone the repo and install ruby dependencies with bundle install
  2. Then, install front-end dependencies with yarn install
  3. Set the environment config as needed:
  • EVENTBRITE_SECRET to use the Eventbrite API to show events
  • GOVUK_NOTIFY_API_KEY to use the Notify API to send emails
  • GOVUK_NOTIFY_TEMPLATE_ID to tell Notify which template to use
  • GA_TRACKING_ID to send analytics
  • SENTRY_DSN to send error reports to Sentry
  1. Set up the databases with rake db:setup
  2. Set up FaeCMS with rake fae:seed_db
  3. rails s to start
  4. The app will be available on port 3000
  5. Go to /admin which should now, as long as you completed step 5, take you to set up the first user - go create an admin account and then log in.
  6. While the app should be working you will also need to add questions for each of the topics in order for the flow to work.

Fae CMS

This app uses FaeCMS as the CMS, you can find out more about it in Fae's documentation

Deploying to the web

It's designed to work on Heroku, and should deploy there without any special steps.

Make sure to run the rails db:migrate command to prepare the database.

It might not do much until some sensible content has been set in the CMS.
