Adoteumpedido

O Adote um Pedido veio contornar um obstáculo ao acesso à informação no Brasil: aqui, ao contrário do que acontece em outros países, não é possível solicitar informações dos órgãos públicos de forma anônima.

Install

$ bundle install
$ cp config/database.yml{.example,}
$ rake db:create db:migrate

On development enviroment you can create fake data running:

$ rake db:bootstrap

Import Authorities From Alaveteli

First we need download the Authorities and save csv in db/data/all-authorities.csv

$ curl 'http://queremossaber.org.br/body/all-authorities.csv' -o db/data/all-authorities.csv

Send it to production server and, on production server, run:

$ rake db:import_authorities_from_alaveteli

Hide User?

on App

On app level, the config/initializers/hide_ip.rb file hide user IP, the request log will like that

Started GET "/assets/application.js?body=1" for ###.##.##.###

Why not disable log? I tried it, sent the log to /dev/null, that was a bad idea! the app logs are important to debug app

on Web Server

We need only disable web server log, please see the your web server manual, on nginx, for example, the access_log var can be off

Using heroku

The Heroku has your log acess, to use heroku we need create a small proxy, you can use amazon for it. Given my app address is adoteumpedido.herokuapp.com, we configure the nginx on amazon with that config:

http {
  upstream adoteumpedido{
    server adoteumpedido.herokuapp.com:80; # adoteumpedido instance
  }

  server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  adoteumpedido.info; # adoteumpedido address
    error_log off;
    access_log off;

    location ~ / {
      index  index.html index.htm;
      proxy_set_header X-Real-IP 111.111.11.11;
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For 111.111.11.111;
      proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
      proxy_redirect off;
      proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;
      proxy_pass http://adoteumpedido;
    }
  }
}
```

Feel free to updated it, I put only the basic config to proxy
