Getting the code

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/SciCrunch/rdw.git
cd $HOME/rdw

Building

First edit the $HOME/rdw/grails-app/conf/DataSource.groovy file to setup your database connection at least for the production environment. You need to set the development and test environments also for development. They can all point to the same database.

// environment specific settings
environments {
    development {
      dataSource {
         pooled = true
         dbCreate = "validate"
         url = "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/rd_dev"
         dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
         driverClassName = "org.postgresql.Driver"
         username = "rd_dev"
         password = ""
      }
    }
    test {
      dataSource {
         pooled = true
         dbCreate = "validate"
         url = "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/rd_prod"
         dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
         driverClassName = "org.postgresql.Driver"
         username = "rd_test"
         password = ""
      }
    }
    production {
      dataSource {
         pooled = true
         dbCreate = "validate"
         logSql=true
         url = "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/rd_prod"
         dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
         driverClassName = "org.postgresql.Driver"
         username = "rd_prod"
         password = ""
...
    }
  }

cd $HOME/rdw
grails clean
grails war

You need to create at least one user called admin with role 'admin' in the rd_user database table. All curator users will have the role 'curator' in the rd_user table. After that, you need to copy $HOME/rdw/rdw.war to the webapps directory of your servlet container (e.g. Tomcat) and start it. To login, point your browser to http://localhost:8080/rdw/.
