We use Tock to track our time. You can read more about Tock in this blog post about its features.

Getting Started

Make sure you have vagrant installed. For instance, on OS X with Homebrew:

$ brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask
$ brew cask install vagrant

Then, ensure you have the appropriate Vagrant Box installed:

$ vagrant box add ubuntu/trusty32

You can get started with development by running the Vagrantfile:

$ vagrant up

This will provision an entire setup for you pretty quickly (see provision/dev/bootstrap.sh). You can access Django and start runserver by doing the following:

$ vagrant ssh
$ python manage.py migrate
$ python manage.py loaddata test_data/data-update.json  
$ python manage.py runserver

From your host computer, going to http://192.168.33.10 will enable you to view Tock. You're automatically logged in as [email protected], the nginx proxy in production will pull the logged in user from Google Auth proxy. You can access the admin panel at http://192.168.33.10/admin

Making SASS changes

In order to make official changes to the styling of the website, you'll need to compile locally and submit the files accordingly. All of the files you should be editing are located in tock/tock/static/sass/ and are labeled according to their purpose, e.g. base/_typography.scss focuses on website type stylings.

Here are some steps to do to help make that happen:

1. Make sure that you have Sass installed on your machine, instructions for installing Sass on various platforms.
2. Open a new terminal window, separate from the one running the vagrant instance described above.
3. Type the following command from the top level tock directory:

$ sass --watch tock/tock/static/sass/core.scss:tock/tock/static/css/style.css

Congrats! Now you'll be able to make the changes and they will compile automatically every time your changes are saved.

NOTE: Be sure to ONLY change files ending in .scss extension and NOT .css
