MagicRecipes

Some capistrano-recipes for our deployment .. still in development!

Code is inspired by:

• Ryan Bates .. railscast #337 = some of the recipes

• Sergey Nartimov = the load mechanism

add magic_recipes to your Gemfile

gem 'magic_recipes', :require => nil

install the gem

$ bundle install

run the generator

$ rails g magic_recipes:capify

edit 'config/deploy'

enjoy some magic!

• add tests (rspec+cucumber)
• make expect-cap-task (bin/*_cap)
• improve: passenger, unicorn rbenv, postgesql, nodejs, gems, db, git, rvm
• add: puma, varnish, search-stuff, vps-stuff

and in use .. but not tested

• nginx
• thin
• assets
• private_pub ... needs nginx_tcp_proxy_module for nginx
• sqlite ... this is more for test & try pupose (save .sqlite and copy to current after deploy)

There's also an Except-Script (bin/git_cap) which is great if you use a private-git-repository ... so you don't need to provide your git-username and git-password twice every deploy.

Usage

$ rails g magic_recipes:git_cap 				# => from app folder .. copy git_cap file
$ git_cap git_name git_password 				# => from app folder .. start silent depoy

or add an alias in ~/.profile | ~/.bash_rc

alias git_deploy='./git_cap git_name git_password'

and start with

$ git_deploy
