RailsCollab

What is it?

RailsCollab is a free web based Project Management and Collaboration tool largely inspired by [Basecamp] 1, the communication-oriented project management solution from 37signals.

Its roots come from a similar project called ProjectPier, which instead of Ruby is written in PHP.

Note regarding current development

Major development was suspended in 2012. Despite this, work is now underway to port the current codebase to use Rails 7. Think of it like a testcase for porting an old project to Rails 7.

Manage projects. How?

In RailsCollab, you have the following:

  • Task lists - to keep track of what needs to get done, and who is responsible
  • Milestones - to track what needs to get done and by whom
  • Times - to record how much time has been spent on a project or task
  • Files - to share data with your clients
  • Messages - for centralized communication

You can add clients to your projects at any time. Each member of a client can have a login, whose access can be restricted to certain elements of the project.

How can i install / upgrade?

Simply run the following:

script/setup

And login using the username admin, with the password password.

For more advanced setup options, refer to the [INSTALL.markdown] 3 and [UPGRADE.markdown] 4 files
