Wreeto is an open source note-taking, knowledge management and wiki system built on top of Ruby on Rails framework.
Initially this was built because I didn't like the note-taking apps out there and I wanted something simple, structured and straightforward, with no bells and whistles.

Copy the .env.development.local to .env:
cp .env.development.local .env
and set up your variables:
OAUTH_GOOGLE_ID=
OAUTH_GOOGLE_SECRET=
POSTGRES_HOST=postgres
POSTGRES_USER=wreeto_admin
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=wreeto_password
POSTGRES_DB=wreeto_dev
POSTGRES_PORT=5432
RACK_ENV=development
RAILS_ENV=development
RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY=
RECAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY=
REDIS_HOST=redis
REDIS_PASSWORD=
SMTP_USERNAME=
SMTP_PASSWORD=
WREETO_HOST=localhost # your IP Address or domain
WREETO_PORT=8383
The easiest way to get started now is to use docker-compose and simply execute:
docker-compose up
If you decide to just copy the docker-compose.yml file in order to deploy it locally, you'll also need to create .env (instructions in 4.1) and docker-entrypoint.sh. Make sure to add execute permissions to it sudo chmod +x docker-entrypoint.sh.
In order to initialize the database and load the default account, you'll need to run:
docker-compose run app bundle exec rake db:drop db:migrate db:setup
You will need to setup postgres, ruby, redis and their appropriate dependencies necessary by your O/S and environment.
As for every Rails project:
bundle installbundle exec rake db:drop db:migrate db:setupbundle exec rails s
Do not forget to create the .env file.
The default credentials are: username user@email.com and password password.
You can create another account from the Rails console by running bundle exec rails console or docker-compose run app bundle exec rails console and then
User.create!({firstname: 'John', lastname: 'Murdock', email: 'user@email.com', password: 'password', confirmed_at: DateTime.now})
by changing the values as you wish, then exit.
