Simply put, this is an collaborative organization tool, inspired by a certain other collaborative organization tool.
The key feature is that you have "Pages" which can contain any of the following content (or "widgets"):
- Notes
- Lists
- Separators (or you can call them headings)
- Files
- Images
These pages can be edited by yourself and any other user you choose to share it to. You can also re-order and move content between pages.
In addition there are a few complimentary features, namely:
- Reminders
- Journals & Status (think Twitter)
Currently there is no demo available. However since rucksack takes mere minutes to install, who needs a demo? :)
Firstly, make a "config/database.yml" file based off of "config/database.example.yml". If you want a quick start, you can use the file as-is since it is already set up to use a local SQLite database.
Next, you'll want to actually install the initial content. You can do this by typing in the following command:
script/setup
Next, run it either by pointing Phusion Passenger to the public folder, or run the local server, e.g.:
script/rails server
Finally, login. The default credentials are:
Username: admin
Password: password
The most likely explanation is that the database schema has been updated. You'll need to type in the following command to resolve this:
rake db:migrate
Have fun!
