Monfort_Wiki

Monfort_wiki uses a Flask python server and an EmberJs front end.

Notes:

1. The Search Query is case sensitive and will only work for Wiki pages which have an InfoBox Template. For Example: "New York" will return a result, however "New york" will return an error
2. Due to learning the frameworks, and time constraints, tests were not accurately testing the app and so they were removed.
3. When retreiving the list of tasks, the code uses redis "keys" instead of storing those keys in a set and retreiving that set, as should be done in production environments.
4. This project does not make use of Ember Data, or explicit Ember promises.

Preparing your Environment:

1. Install Python 2.7.9
2. Install Redis on port 8000
3. Install Flask using pip install Flask
4. Install EmberJS using npm install -g [email protected]
5. If you do not have npm installed, you may install it using brew install npm or linuxbrew install npm
6. Install PhantomJS for running tests npm install -g phantomjs-prebuilt
