Open311 Status monitors and aggregates the status of dozens of Open311 API endpoints, providing benchmarks and comparative insights into:

• Upness: the API is currently available
• Uptime: the availability of the API over time
• Performance: how quickly the servers respond to API requests
• Comprehensiveness: how fully the API is implemented/adopted; e.g. the number of service types that can be submitted through the API
• Utilization: how much the 311 service being used; e.g. the number of service requests submitted

To add a new Open311 endpoint, add their API configuration to the config/cities.yml file. This should include:

• slug: a unique key for the API endpoint.
  • name: the human readable name of the city or location.
  • endpoint: the complete URL of the Open311 api endpoint, ending in a /, without services.xml or requests.xml.
  • jurisdiction (optional): the ?jurisdiction_id= parameter, if required.
  • format (optional): xml or json; defaults to xml/
  • headers (optional): custom API headers necessary for the API.

Example:

bruhl:
  name: 'Brühl, Deutschland'
  endpoint: 'https://www.achtet-auf-bruehl.de/georeport/v2/'
  jurisdiction: 'bruehl.de'

By default, running db:setup will load cities and generate fake service requests. To load cities, run rake cities:load. And to load service requests, rake cities:service_requests

1. Install Ruby with your ruby version manager of choice, like rbenv or RVM
2. Check the ruby version in .ruby-version and ensure you have it installed locally e.g. rbenv install 2.6.1
3. Install bundler (the latest Heroku-compatible version): gem install bundler
4. Install Postgres. If setting up Postgres.app, you will also need to add the binary to your path. e.g. Add to your ~/.bashrc: export PATH="$PATH:/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/latest/bin".
5. Install PostGIS, the Postgres geospatial extension, if it's not included in your distribution. Postgres.app comes with postgis.

1. Install ruby gem dependencies: bundle install
2. Create the databases and load schema and seeds: bin/rails db:setup
3. Run the tests: bin/rspec
4. Run the server: bin/rails server, and visit the web-browser: http://localhost:3000

You may need to run rake db:gis:setup to enable PostGIS on your database.
