Rails App for Weddings and Events
This is a simple rails app for managing the guest list for a wedding (or similar event). It's intended to be easy to customize.
Features
- Guests can RSVP, including dietary requirements and plus ones
- Guests can manage their own RSVPs using a secret link in an email (no user name / password needed)
- Responsive design on home page and RSVP pages
- Customizable styling and wording
- Active Admin interface to manage the attendee list
- Optional invisible reCAPTCHA integration to avoid spam
- Sets headers to avoid being indexed by search engines
Development
Initial Setup
The simplest way to get started is to use Docker.
git clone https://github.com/jdleesmiller/wedding.git
cd wedding
cp development.env.template development.env
docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d db
docker-compose run --rm web bash -lc 'bin/rails db:create db:migrate'
docker-compose run --rm web bash -lc 'bin/rails db:seed'
Watch the output of db:seed for the default admin credentials:
Admin user email: admin@example.com
Admin user password: (random string)
Running the App
docker-compose up -d
docker-compose logs -f
By default, the app will run on http://localhost:3000
The admin interface is on http://localhost:3000/admin
To access the database:
docker-compose exec db psql wedding_development postgres
To get a shell:
docker-compose exec web bash
Once you have a shell in the container, you can run rails commands as normal.
bin/rails console
bin/rails test
Customization
You can of course customize everything, but here are some places to start:
