infractores's Introduction

Infractores

Infractores is a tool that lets anyone with a Twitter account report a parking violation with a tweet.

The violations are recorded and placed in a map along with evidence supporting the report.

Considerations

The project uses a Twitter application to find the tweets that describe a violation. It also uses Amazon Web Services to store the evidence related to the violation.

Requirements

Postgres 9.4.1+
Redis 3.0.1+
Ruby 2.2.1

Setup

Setup your environment

cp .env.sample .env

You must enter your AWS and Twitter credentials in this file.

Setup your database

rake db:create db:migrate

Get parking violations from Twitter

rake twitter:download_tweets

This task will download all the mentions for the user associated with the Twitter credentials and its hashtag, for example: #InfractoresBA

Start

foreman start

This will start the Rails server and a Sidekiq worker to process the tweets.

infractores's Issues

Setup TravisCI

Just to make sure that the build continues to pass after every contribution.

We could add a few "Share on Twitter" or "Share on Facebook" buttons/links to each infraction, either on the infraction div itself or maybe on the map, overlayed, after clicking and zooming in on an infraction?

Tweets submitted with a hashtag are not showing up

For example: https://twitter.com/_nesto/status/722065061309726720

Make TwitterService hashtag search dependent on username from API key

Currently, the mentions timeline search is dynamic, but the hashtag search is not. TwitterService has #InfractoresBA hardcoded, instead of picking up the username from the account associated to the API key.

Google Analytics

We're not tracking anything right now.

Add a section that explains how to report an infraction

We should have a section that explains how to tweet an infraction.

It could be something like this:

"Para reportar una infracción sólo es necesario mencionar a @InfractoresBA o agregar el hashtag #InfractoresBA a tu tuit.

Una denuncia válida debe tener:

Por lo menos una foto que muestre la infracción
Geolocalización activada al momento de enviar el tuit"

Infractoresba.com.ar doesn't work, www.infractoresba.com.ar does

@etagwerker there's a missing config problem, only www.infractoresba.com.ar works.

Trying to access without www:

➜  carbide git:(mauro-oto/fix-server-node-ips-rake-task) ✗ host www.infractoresba.com.ar
www.infractoresba.com.ar is an alias for infractoresba.herokuapp.com.
infractoresba.herokuapp.com is an alias for us-east-1-a.route.herokuapp.com.
us-east-1-a.route.herokuapp.com has address 23.23.152.183
➜  carbide git:(mauro-oto/fix-server-node-ips-rake-task) ✗ host infractoresba.com.ar
➜  carbide git:(mauro-oto/fix-server-node-ips-rake-task) ✗

Integrate with the GCBA infraction report endpoint

It'd be great if we can report the infraction to the GCBA using the endpoint associated with the form in this page: http://www.buenosaires.gob.ar/areas/seguridad_justicia/seguridad_urbana/dgcactyt/formulario_denuncia/denunciavial.php?menu_id=34064

Add coverage to ensure homepage renders successfully

Last week we deployed a change that broke the homepage because of an undefined helper method, so www.infractoresba.com.ar showed a 500 status page.

We should have coverage for this to ensure that the homepage renders successfully, with a 200 status code.
