Amahi "edge" is the developer version of Amahi, with the very latest and greatest code in it.
Amahi Edge is the developer version of Amahi, with the very latest and greatest code in it. It lives in a the master branch of the Amahi Git git repo, called  at https://github.com/amahi-edge/platform
This page is about working notes for the latest in the development tree.
= How to Get Amahi Edge Running =
 
This procedure is the way to get Amahi 7 running in development. This has been tested with a clean Fedora 19 minimal install from the netinst DVD (generally without updates), though it can be done on Mac OS X as well:
 
# open a terminal window
# If you are running Fedora, do this as Root (<code>su</code>):
##enter the root password (not the one from the first user)
##<code>yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'</code>, or for a shorter install do:
##* <code>yum -y install make git mysql-devel sqlite-devel mysql-server gcc-c++ tar rpm-build</code>
##* <code>yum -y install ruby ruby-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel</code>
##<code>systemctl start mysqld.service</code>
## <code>gem install bundler</code>
# exit the root user and use a regular user. you will need to reinstall fedora if you skip this step :(
# if you are running on Mac OS X, install git, mysql, probably homebrew as well
# we suggest you create a new folder to put the amahi development code, then in it run:
# <code>git clone git@github.com:amahi/platform.git</code>
# <code>cd platform</code>
# <code>bundle install</code> (this will take a while and install all the necessary gems)
# <code>rake db:create</code> this will ask for the mysql root password with a prompt ">"
#* if this is a fresh Fedora 18 install, your mysql server probably does not have a password, so just press Enter
#* if you set a password for the mysql root user, type it. Note that it will show a warning and echo the password!
#* if you are re-running this step and the db is already created, you can run rake db:drop first then create it again
# <code>rake db:migrate</code> (this will get the database up to snuff)
# <code>rake db:seed</code> (this will get a basic database setup)
# rails s (this will start the rails server)
 
The development dashboard can be reached with your favorite browser at:
 
<code>http://localhost:3000</code>
 
There is an initial user created called <code>admin</code> with password <code>admin</code>. Login should work out of the box.
 
To stop the development server, just hit <code>Ctrl+C</code> in the terminal where you started the server.
 
== Running Tests ==
 
A great way to contribute is to write tests. The spec tests are in the <code>spec/</code> directory. To run them:
 
rake spec
 
It will show you one dot per test passing. It will show test fails with F and display the error.
 
You may need to
 
yum install rubygem-minitest
 
to get things to run properly for some reason that we did not root cause yet.
 
= Old, obsolete info for Amahi 6 =
First you need to get the latest git repository (see how on the [[Contribute]]-page)
<code>./script/server</code>
 
The development dashboard can be reached with your favorite browser using the link <code>http://ip.addr.of.dev:3000</code>
 
Or simply:
 
<code>http://localhost:3000</code>
 
To stop the development server, just hit <code>Ctrl+C</code> in the terminal where you started the server.

= Tips =
* Start with VM with virtual machine snapshots. Take a snapshot of your VM to beginat the beginning, in case you have to revert, and take a snapshot as you progress through milestones.
* If you do not have a VM, take a snapshot of your development database. You can use ./script/db-duplicate and ./script/db-restore (use with care!)
* Don't forget, the Amahi forum has a section for [http://forums.amahi.org/viewforum.php?f=41 virtualization], in case you're looking for some input in that area.
