Web app for managing and matching of candidates to projects based on skills.
Vue is used on the front-end.
The web server (Rust + Actix) implementation is based on Harry Gill's very good tutorial. It can be found here. At the time of writing (2021), Rust is a relatively young language so bear in mind that newer and better techniques might be around.

- Sparkpost API key
- Create a postgres database
- Clone this repo
- Create .env file to the root:
DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:password@server/dbname
SPARKPOST_API_KEY='xxxxx'

- From the root,
mkdir public - Go to App folder and run
npm install - Because of reasons, Flashmessages won't install as expected. Run
npm i @smartweb/[email protected] - Bootstrap needs Popper but doesn't include it. Still in app folder, run
npm i @popperjs/core - Still in the app folder, run
npm run dev - From the root, setup diesel:
diesel migration runand thendiesel setup - From the root, run
cargo run - App SHOULD be up at localhost:8086.
The User Interface is built with Bootstrap and can be customized with variables. The built in theme is located in the app/src/styles/hula directory and site specific customizations should be in app/src/styles/custom. The built in theme is completely ignored when custom exists.

_variables.scss
Define colors and other variables for Bootstrap. _variables.scss is prepended to the main.scss and it doesn't know about any Bootstrap variables. Any default Bootstrap variables (like $primary: lighten($blue, 10%);) need to be copied from Bootstrap's _variables.scss.
_main.scss
Override default Bootstrap and Hula styles. _main.scss is appended to the main.scss and all Bootstrap variables, mixins and functions can be used.
assets directory
Custom assets, like background image. Files in assets are copied to public/assets.
