Description: Signalbox
        ============
        
        
        SignalBox is a web application application designed to make it easy to run clinical and other studies. Signalbox makes it easy to recruit, take consent from, and follow-up large numbers of participants, using a customisable assessment schedule.

        Local install
        ---------------
        
        To install::
        	
        	mkvirtualenv signalbox_virtualenv
        	pip install signalbox
        	bootstrap_signalbox
        	newprojectname
        	cd newprojectname
        	chmod 755 app/manage.py
        	pip install -r requirements.txt
        	source local-environment-example.sh
        	app/manage.py syncdb
        	app/manage.py migrate
        	app/manage.py runserver
        
        Then open http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin  to view the admin site on your development machine.
        
        
        
        Hosted installation
        --------------------
        
        To get it running on heroku's free plan, install the heroku command line tool and sign up for an account with them (https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/quickstart). Then inside the new directory created above::
        
        	git init
        	git add -A
        	git commit -a -m "initial commit"
        	heroku apps:create yoursignalboxappname
        	heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:dev
        	git push heroku master
        	source heroku-environment-example.sh 
        	heroku run app/manage.py syncdb
        	heroku run app/manage.py migrate
        	heroku apps:open	
        
        
        And now remember to add a scheduled task to send observations::
        
        	heroku addons:add scheduler
        	heroku addons:open scheduler
        	
        	
        You'll want to add scheduled tasks for::
        
        	app/manage.py runtask send
        	app/manage.py runtask remind
        	app/manage.py cleanup
        	
        The frequency is up to you - more often can cost more in dyno time if it overruns the free quota (but not much).
