People can post short descriptions of what they're working on, and potential researchers can filter the list to find opportunities and contact information. The idea is to deploy it at [Cornell CS][] as a way to broaden participation in undergraduate research.\n\n[cornell cs]: http://www.cs.cornell.edu\n\n\n## Requirements\n\nYou will need [Python 2.7][python].\n\n[python]: https://www.python.org/downloads/\n\n\n## Development Setup\n\nHere's how to get a copy of the server running on your machine.\n\n1. First, make sure you have [pip][].\n\n2. Then, install [virtualenv][] if you don't have it already:\n\n       pip install virtualenv\n\n3. Create a virtual environment:\n\n       virtualenv venv\n\n4. Install the dependencies:\n\n       ./venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt\n\n5. Initialize a database:\n\n       ./venv/bin/python db_create.py\n\n6. Now you can run the server:\n\n       ./venv/bin/python ./run.py [debug]\n\n[virtualenv]: https://virtualenv.pypa.io/\n[pip]: https://pip.pypa.io/\n\nOnce the server is running (in debug mode), you might want to populate it with some sample data. The `populate_data.sh` script will add some of that.\n\nIf you update the [Sass][] source files, use this to update the CSS:\n\n    sass --watch server/static/scss:server/static/css\n\n[sass]: http://sass-lang.com/install\n\n\n## Deployment\n\nYou will want to configure the production version of the server. Create a Python file with *at least* values for `SECRET_KEY` and `BASE_URL`. When starting the application, point the `REMATCH_CONFIG` environment variable at this file.\n\nHere's a straightforward way to deploy using [Gunicorn][]. Install the dependencies into a virtualenv, as above, and then also install Gunicorn into the same virtualenv:\n\n    ./venv/bin/pip install gunicorn\n\nThen, start Gunicorn like so:\n\n    REMATCH_CONFIG=config.py ./venv/bin/gunicorn server:app\n\nThen you can put the Gunicorn server behind a proper public web server.\n\n[gunicorn]: http://gunicorn.org\n\n\n## Configuration\n\nSee `config_default.py` for some options you can override in the configuration.\n\nThe application also supports SAML-based single sign-on as an alternative to username/password authentication. Set the `SAML_METADATA_URL` to the URL of the XML file describing the SAML endpoint.\n\n\n## Credits\n\nThe tool was originally developed as a [CS 5150][] project by a team consisting\nof Michael White, Tiffany Zheng, Aishwarya Rameshkumar, Yu (Nancy) Gu, Simeon\nVidenov, Kristian Langholm, Leon Zaruvinsky, and Brandon Giraldo.
