After [installing](INSTALL.md) this software, you may need to carry out some of these configuration steps, depending on your tasks.
+## Application configuration
+
+Many settings are available in `config/settings.yml`. You can customize your installation of The Rails Port by overriding these values using `config/settings.local.yml`
+
## Populating the database
-Your installation comes with no geographic data loaded. You can either create new data using one of the editors (Potlatch 2, iD, JOSM etc) or by loading an OSM extract.
+Your installation comes with no geographic data loaded. You can either create new data using one of the editors (iD, JOSM etc) or by loading an OSM extract.
+
+After installing but before creating any users or data, import an extract with [Osmosis](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis) and the [``--write-apidb``](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis/Detailed_Usage#--write-apidb_.28--wd.29) task.
+
+```
+osmosis --read-pbf greater-london-latest.osm.pbf \
+ --write-apidb host="localhost" database="openstreetmap" \
+ user="openstreetmap" password="" validateSchemaVersion="no"
+```
+
+Loading an apidb database with Osmosis is about **twenty** times slower than loading the equivalent data with osm2pgsql into a rendering database. [``--log-progress``](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis/Detailed_Usage#--log-progress_.28--lp.29) may be desirable for status updates.
-* Use this [yet-to-be-written script](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/282)
+To be able to edit the data you have loaded, you will need to use this [yet-to-be-written script](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/282).
## Managing Users
```
$ bundle exec rails console
->> user = User.find_by_display_name("My New User Name")
+>> user = User.find_by(:display_name => "My New User Name")
=> #[ ... ]
->> user.status = "active"
-=> "active"
->> user.save!
+>> user.activate!
=> true
>> quit
```
```
$ bundle exec rails console
->> user = User.find_by_display_name("My New User Name")
+>> user = User.find_by(:display_name => "My New User Name")
=> #[ ... ]
->> user.roles.create( {:role => "administrator", :granter_id => user.id}, :without_protection => true)
+>> user.roles.create(:role => "administrator", :granter_id => user.id)
=> #[ ... ]
->> user.roles.create( {:role => "moderator", :granter_id => user.id}, :without_protection => true)
+>> user.roles.create(:role => "moderator", :granter_id => user.id)
=> #[ ... ]
>> user.save!
=> true
## OAuth Consumer Keys
-Three of the built-in applications communicate via the API, and therefore need OAuth consumer keys configured. These are:
+There are two built-in applications which communicate via the API, and therefore need OAuth consumer keys configured. These are:
-* Potlatch 2
* iD
* The website itself (for the Notes functionality)
-For example, to use the Potlatch 2 editor you need to register it as an OAuth application.
+To use the iD editor you need to register it as an OAuth 1 application.
Do the following:
* Log into your Rails Port instance - e.g. http://localhost:3000
* Click on your user name to go to your user page
* Click on "my settings" on the user page
-* Click on "oauth settings" on the My settings page
+* Click on "OAuth 1 settings" on the My settings page
* Click on 'Register your application'.
-* Unless you have set up alternatives, use Name: "Local Potlatch" and URL: "http://localhost:3000"
-* Check the 'modify the map' box.
+* Unless you have set up alternatives, use Name: "Local iD" and Main Application URL: "http://localhost:3000"
+* Check boxes for the following Permissions
+ * 'read their user preferences'
+ * 'modify the map'
+ * 'read their private GPS traces'
+ * 'modify notes'
* Everything else can be left with the default blank values.
* Click the "Register" button
* On the next page, copy the "consumer key"
-* Edit config/application.yml in your rails tree
-* Uncomment and change the "potlatch2_key" configuration value
+* Edit config/settings.local.yml in your rails tree
+* Add the "id_key" configuration key and the consumer key as the value
* Restart your rails server
-An example excerpt from application.yml:
+An example excerpt from settings.local.yml:
```
# Default editor
-default_editor: "potlatch2"
-# OAuth consumer key for Potlatch 2
-potlatch2_key: "8lFmZPsagHV4l3rkAHq0hWY5vV3Ctl3oEFY1aXth"
+default_editor: "id"
+# OAuth 1 consumer key for iD
+id_key: "8lFmZPsagHV4l3rkAHq0hWY5vV3Ctl3oEFY1aXth"
```
-Follow the same process for registering and configuring iD (`id_key`) and the website/Notes (`oauth_key`), or to save time, simply reuse the same consumer key for each.
+To allow [Notes](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Notes) and changeset discussions to work, follow a similar process, this time registering an OAuth 2 application for the web site:
+
+* Go to "[OAuth 2 applications](http://localhost:3000/oauth2/applications)" on the My settings page.
+* Click on "Register new application".
+* Use Name: "OpenStreetMap Web Site" and Redirect URIs: "http://localhost:3000"
+* Check boxes for the following Permissions
+ * 'Modify the map'
+ * 'Modify notes'
+* On the next page, copy the "Client Secret" and "Client ID"
+* Edit config/settings.local.yml in your rails tree
+* Add the "oauth_application" configuration with the "Client ID" as the value
+* Add the "oauth_key" configuration with the "Client Secret" as the value
+* Restart your rails server
+
+An example excerpt from settings.local.yml:
+
+```
+# OAuth 2 Client ID for the web site
+oauth_application: "SGm8QJ6tmoPXEaUPIZzLUmm1iujltYZVWCp9hvGsqXg"
+# OAuth 2 Client Secret for the web site
+oauth_key: "eRHPm4GtEnw9ovB1Iw7EcCLGtUb66bXbAAspv3aJxlI"
+```

## Maintaining your installation
## Testing on the osm dev server
-For example, after developing a patch for the rails_port, you might want to demonstrate it to others or ask for comments and testing. To do this one can [set up an instance of the rails_port on the dev server in ones user directory](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Using_the_dev_server#Rails_Applications).

If you want to deploy The Rails Port for production use, you'll need to make a few changes.
-* It's not recommended to use `rails server` in production. Our recommended approach is to use [Phusion Passenger](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/).
+* It's not recommended to use `rails server` in production. Our recommended approach is to use [Phusion Passenger](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/). Instructions are available for [setting it up with most web servers](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/documentation_and_support#documentation).
* Passenger will, by design, use the Production environment and therefore the production database - make sure it contains the appropriate data and user accounts.
* Your production database will also need the extensions and functions installed - see [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md)
* The included version of the map call is quite slow and eats a lot of memory. You should consider using [CGIMap](https://github.com/zerebubuth/openstreetmap-cgimap) instead.
-* The included version of the GPX importer is slow and/or completely inoperable. You should consider using [the high-speed GPX importer](http://git.openstreetmap.org/gpx-import.git/).
+* Make sure you generate the i18n files and precompile the production assets: `RAILS_ENV=production rake i18n:js:export assets:precompile`
+* Make sure the web server user as well as the rails user can read, write and create directories in `tmp/`.
+* If you expect to serve a lot of `/changes` API calls, then you might also want to install the shared library versions of the SQL functions.
