Annotation Studio

An annotation platform designed for teaching and learning in the humanities, and with aspirations to more general use.

Dependency: MIT Annotation Data Store

https://github.com/hyperstudio/MIT-Annotation-Data-Store

Set the data store up first, then rename application.sample.yml to application.yml and point your annotation studio instance to the API in that config file.

Installation

Set up Rails and Postgres (if you haven't yet, try: https://github.com/thoughtbot/laptop)

Then:

• mkdir annotation-studio
• cd annotation-studio
• git clone git@github.com:hyperstudio/Annotation-Studio.git
• bundle install
• Create a PostgreSQL database, add the connection information into database.sample.yml and copy that file to database.yml.
• Update application.yml and database.yml with your configuration preference.
• Rake db migrate
• rails s
