Rails Remote

A job ad website optimized for remote work

Deployment

https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git

TLDR: Commit changes to the git repo and push them to [email protected]:railsremote.git

Admin

Admin pages are located at http://railsremote.herokuapp.com/admin_jobs There is only one admin account and new ones can not be created.

Username: superuser

You can get the password by running the following command in your terminal:

heroku config --app railsremote | grep ADMIN_PASSWORD

Or going to heroku https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps/railsremote/settings and clicking Reveal Config Vars.

You can update the password by running

heroku config:set ADMIN_PASSWORD=yourNewPassword

Or doing it in the heroku dashboard (link above).

Admin tasks

Moderating

In the admin panel you see a list of all submitted or imported job ads.

• Click Edit and make changes to the ad text. Big text blocks accept markdown for formatting.
• Click Preview button to see what it looks like.
• If you can see the All good, make it live button it means the author has not made the job ad public yet, unless you are the author (or the job was imported) do not click it.
• If the job has been made public by the author, Admin Publish button will approve it and make it visible on the website for 1 month

If you want to change the duration of how long it's visible you'll need to change this code job.update_column(:visible_until, 1.month.from_now) in admin_jobs_controller.rb

Importing the ads

StackOverflow crawler needs to be updated

There are currently two crawlers that scrape Stack Overflow and WeWorkRemotely. To invoke them load a heroku database session (an equivalent of bundle exec rails console locally):

heroku run console
> WeWorkRemotely.call
> StackOverflow.call # Fails at the moment

This will populate the admin panel with unpublished and unapproved job ads. It will also list the moderation links for each imported ad e.g.:

Development

This is a typical Ruby on Rails application.

To start it locally you will need ruby to be installed.

> gem install bundler
> bundle install
> bundle exec rake db:create db:migrate
> ADMIN_PASSWORD=localpassword bundle exec rails server
# This will start an app at http://localhost:3000
