Running the CMS

One can start the CMS by running rake cms. This will run the server on localhost port 8001.

However, the server also needs data to work from.

Installing Mongodb

Please see http://www.mongodb.org/downloads for more detailed instructions.

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install mongodb

OSX

Use the MacPorts package mongodb or the Homebrew formula mongodb

Initializing Mongodb

Check out the course data directories that you want to work with into the GITHUB_REPO_ROOT (by default, ../data). Then run the following command:

rake django-admin[import,cms,dev,../data]

Replace ../data with your GITHUB_REPO_ROOT if it's not the default value.

This will import all courses in your data directory into mongodb
