YUTour (a Yelp & Uber Tour)

What Is This?

The dopest API mashup in the history of the universe

We grab your location, give you the best yelp spots to hit up within a radius, and hire ubers for you to get you where you need to go

How To Use This

1. Navigate over to https://developer.uber.com/, and sign up for an Uber developer account.
2. Register a new Uber application and make your Redirect URI http://localhost:7000/submit - ensure that both the profile and history OAuth scopes are checked.
3. Fill in the relevant information in the config.json file in the root folder and add your client id and secret as the environment variables UBER_CLIENT_ID and UBER_CLIENT_SECRET.
4. Run export UBER_CLIENT_ID="{your client id}"&&export UBER_CLIENT_SECRET="{your client secret}"
5. Run pip install -r requirements.txt to install dependencies
6. Run python app.py
7. Navigate to http://localhost:7000 in your browser

Testing

1. Install the dependencies with make bootstrap
2. Run the command make test
3. If you delete the fixtures, or decide to add some of your own, you’ll have to re-generate them, and the way this is done is by running the app, getting an auth_token from the main page of the app. Paste that token in place of the test_auth_token at the top of the test_endpoints.py file, then run the tests.

Development

If you want to work on this application we’d love your pull requests and tickets on GitHub!

1. If you open up a ticket, please make sure it describes the problem or feature request fully.
2. If you send us a pull request, make sure you add a test for what you added, and make sure the full test suite runs with make test.

Deploy to Heroku

After creating your app on Heroku, you have to configure the redirect URL for your Uber OAuth app. Use a https://{your-app-name}.herokuapp.com/submit URL. You will also want to configure the heroku environment variable FLASK_DEBUG=False in order to properly serve SSL traffic.
