I create a social network and use gem community_engine, but I had problems implementing a large number of settings that I need for my application. I believe that this will make it easier for me to redefine and add methods, and it will also help me better understand and learn from the code, since I can really see all this in action.
So far I have downloaded the source code, added the default bin directory and configuration files that were missing, as well as all the gem dependencies.
What else do I need to do to make the application work? I understand that there can still be many, and that this may not be easy to explain, but at least there is some documentation that can help me understand how to convert the gem to a Rails application?
Here comes the community_engine report: https://github.com/bborn/communityengine
Since this idea may cause some criticism, I will add that I originally built the application without any of the huge plugins that it takes for development, but I am running out of time to finish it.
More things I've tried:
Moving files to the new rails application, starting the server to start, but encountering many seemingly random errors, several have been fixed, but it seems that they appear that I can not understand:
