Some help with managing deploying multiple-apps and multiple-branches to multiple-environments.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'deploy_nanny'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install deploy_nanny

With an executable file called bin/babysit containing the following:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require "deploy_nanny"
require "yaml"

environments        = YAML.load_file("environments.yml")
deploy_instructions = YAML.load_file("deploy_instructions.yml")
nannyrc             = YAML.load_file(".nannyrc")

DeployNanny.babysit(
  github_account: "yourgithubname",
  nannyrc: nannyrc,
  environments: environments,
  deploy_instructions: deploy_instructions,
)

Create a .nannyrc to specify were all your apps are stored. This means you have to have every app nested in the same directory for Mrs. Doubtfire to work.

apps_directory: "/Users/username/app_folder"

-h, --help                       Here are all the options Deploy Nanny takes
-n, --no-deploy                  Do not auto-deploy out-of-date apps
-s, --sleep=SLEEP                Time to sleep between sweeps in minutes.
