EmployeeWeb is another application for the Spirit project from the Faculty of 
Computer Science of the University of Applied Sciences Schmalkalden.

http://pads.fh-schmalkalden.de/spirit.html

It will act as the frontend for employees.

It is/will be developed with Scala 2.9.1 and Lift 2.4-M4.

http://www.scala-lang.org
http://www.liftweb.net

Features:
* Usage of CSS Selectors in Lift.

* Implemented Record for Persistence.

* Working against H2 Database and partially against the RESTful DB-Service, switchable via TAG in the prop files.

* Using charts4j http://code.google.com/p/charts4j/ for Poll evaluation.

Hints:
* The fhsldap_2.9.1-1.0.jar which is located in the lib/ folder 
  is the module found at https://github.com/mdenison/FhS-LDAP-Module.
  Of course it is possible to use the module as described in its README.

* Working SBT 0.11.0 is needed to build and run this project. Please see: https://github.com/harrah/xsbt/wiki/Getting-Started-Setup.

* PollPalSpecs only work with H2 Database at the momemt.

Getting Started:

Clone this repository.
run:
$ sbt 

If this works without any errors go on with editing the Prop file as needed.

Using EmployeeWeb with H2 Database simply set 
spirit.admin.record.backentry=h2db
in the default.props file.

Running
$ sbt 
> test
should pass all tests with the H2 Database.

After everything is set up, run:
$ sbt 
> ~container:start
should give a Welcome screen at http://localhost:8080
