a Sails application to mimic "scrum-ban" taskboard. The application is built with Sails.js web framework.
Maybe sails are lifted on http://wunder.sytes.net:1337/ or maybe not...
You can use following credentials for demo:
username: demo password: demodemodemo
Note that application allows one sign in at same time, so if you're kicked out from Taskboard the reason is probably that someone else is logged in using the same username.
Application is in under heavy development, so there might be some bugs and unfinished functionalities.
Taskboard users have different roles in projects which will determine what user can do within project. User roles are following:
| Action | Administrator | Manager (Primary) | Manager (Normal) | User (Normal) | User (Viewer) |

I recommend installing Taskboard to linux environment. Below is short guide for installation process.
If you have problems with npm install make sure that you have installed all required software. More info at:
https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp/wiki/Visual-Studio-2010-Setup
Below is basic installation guide for Taskboard application. Note that you gotta have root access to your linux box to make install process.
Install Git, MySQL, node.js, sails.js, npm and bower
CentOS / Fedora
sudo yum install git mysql mysql-server sudo yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools" wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.24/node-v0.10.24-linux-x64.tar.gz tar xvzf node-v0.10.24-linux-x64.tar.gz sudo mv node-v0.10.24-linux-x64 /opt/. cd /opt/. sudo ln -s node-v0.10.24-linux-x64 node sudo ln -s /opt/node/bin/npm /usr/local/bin/. sudo ln -s /opt/node/bin/node /usr/local/bin/. sudo npm install -g npm bower sailsDebian / Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install git mysql-server sudo apt-get install python-software-properties python g++ make sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nodejs sudo npm install -g npm bower sails
MySQL setup
Note: you must change following terms: YOUR_MYSQL_DB, YOUR_MYSQL_USER, YOUR_MYSQL_PASSWORD
sudo service mysql start sudo /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation mysql -uroot -p -e "CREATE DATABASE YOUR_MYSQL_DB; GRANT ALL ON YOUR_MYSQL_DB.* TO YOUR_MYSQL_USER@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'YOUR_MYSQL_PASSWORD';"
Clone Taskboard repository from GitHub, install it and create configuration
Note: Remember to change your main node application installation directory /var/node
Note: Change YOUR_USER_GROUP to desired user group in your Linux installation.
Note: npm install command will take a moment or a two to process.
sudo mkdir /var/node sudo chgrp -R YOUR_USER_GROUP /var/node/ sudo chmod -R g+w /var/node/ cd /var/node git clone https://github.com/tarlepp/Taskboard.git cd Taskboard npm install vim config/local.js
Add following lines to your /var/node/config/local.js configuration file and make necessary modifications.
Note: Use same information that you used in MySQL setup section.
Note: You can override any config values in your /var/node/config/local.js file.
Note: Actual path of local.js file depends of your installation.
module.exports.adapters = {
'default': 'mysql',
mysql: {
module: 'sails-mysql',
host: 'YOUR_MYSQL_SERVER_HOSTNAME_OR_IP_ADDRESS',
user: 'YOUR_MYSQL_USER',
password: 'YOUR_MYSQL_PASSWORD',
database: 'YOUR_MYSQL_DB'
}
};
And then you're ready to lift the sails!
Note: Remember run this within your Taskboard installation directory.
Note: With CentOS / Fedora use command /opt/node/bin/sails lift
cd /var/node/Taskboard/ sails lift
Taskboard application will create admin user and demonstration project automatic if database is empty. Default admin user credentials are following:
username: admin password: taskboardisawesome
Note: remember to change admin user password and other info.
Taskboard application has Vagrant configuration order to facilitate development of application itself. You can also use Vagrant for deploying application to production if you want to. Just clone or download Taskboard sources on to your computer and follow below instructions.
Note: First download and install Vagrant
Note: Command vagrant up will take a while to process at first time (couple of minutes)
Note: After sails lift command wait for a while so that Grunt has made all necessary jobs
cd Taskboard vagrant up vagrant ssh -c "cd Taskboard && sails lift"
After that you should apply to use Taskboard with your favorite browser on url http://localhost:1337
When you need to update your installation of Taskboard just follow instructions below.
Note: Before update remember to lower sails.
Note: Run commands in your Taskboard installation directory.
rm -rf .tmp/ git pull npm install sails lift
After that you should have updated version of application running.
First read article about forking, and then basically just;

Really use Php/WebStorm from JetBrains, those are awesome IDEs!
Taskboard uses many 3rd party library to accomplish all necessary functionality of application. Below is list of used components.
