LemonadeStand

This project is a Ruby-on-Rails project. It contains a webstore with Devise user authentication and PostgreSQL database. The original idea was to create service like TakeAway, but with hobby chefs instead of restaurants. Market analysis showed that delivery was unfeasible and thus the project was discontinued.

Setting up the database

(Based on this tutorial)

1. Let's get PostgreSQL

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql postgresql-contrib libpq-dev

2. Create a PostgreSQL user

$ sudo -u postgres createuser -s [username]

Enter PostgreSQL console

$ sudo -u postgres psql

Set password

$ postgres=# \password [username]

Exit PostgreSQL console

$ postgres=# \q

Important: Be sure to remember your user and password
