By default Rails logs to log.development.log.

1
export RAILS_LOG_TO_STDOUT=true

to your own .env file.

On the home Feed, we only show comments above certain "score". It's likely the comments in the local environment will never meet this score. If you want to see comments locally, you will need to update the score of your local comments manually. Here's how:

1. Open the terminal.
2. Run psql PracticalDeveloper_development to open psql, the PostgreSQL terminal.
3. Enter update comments set score = 30;.
4. Type exit to leave the PostgreSQL terminal.

Once you refresh the app, you should be able to see some comments in the Feed.

In certain cases, for example when testing various functionalities, you may need to be able to make some user follow you. Here's how:

1. Open the rails console by running rails c in your terminal.
2. Get any user you want to follow you, for example user = User.first.
3. Then make this user follow you: user.follow(your_username).

Boom, you have a new follower!

1. Open the rails console by running rails c in your terminal.
2. Enter the following commands: ruby user = User.find_by(username: "your_username") organization_id = Organization.find_by(slug: "organization_slug").id user.organization_memberships.where(organization_id: organization_id).destroy_all

If you ever want to add Listings locally, you must have credits on your account to "pay" for listing. Here's how:

1. Open the rails console rails c.
2. Enter the following commands: ruby user = User.find_by(username: "your_username") Credit.add_to(user, 1000)

^ This will add 1000 credits to your account. But you know, you can't really buy anything with it :D
