http://www.enriquedelgado.com/articles/tag/deployment en-us 40 Work, Life, Stuff <p>I&#8217;ve recently purchased a slice at <a href="http://www.slicehost.com">SliceHost</a> and started to use the Deprec plug-in for Rails for my apps.</p> <p>Thanks to the awesome Top Funky free <a href="http://peepcode.com/">peepcode screencast</a> I was able to start deploying applications (including the entire Rails stack) quickly and in a predictable manner.</p> <p>Check out the <a href="http://topfunky.com/clients/peepcode/free-episodes/peepcode-free-deprec.mov">screencast</a> for details, but this is my basic recipe to setup a new application. These steps will create a sample rails application, setup apache, mongrel, and deploy (with migrations!):</p> <ol> <li><code>rails mykillerapp</code></li> <li><code>deprec --apply-to .</code></li> <li>Edit your <code>config/deploy.rb</code> file.</li> <li><code>cap deprec_setup</code></li> <li><code>cap setup_scm</code></li> <li><code>cap deploy_with migrations</code></li> <li><code>cap restart_apache</code></li> </ol> <p>And you are done! Subsequent releases are even easier:</p> <ol> <li><code>cap deploy_with_migrations</code></li> </ol> <p>Pretty good eh?</p> Tue, 01 May 2007 10:00:00 -0500 urn:uuid:545c47d9-cfb4-4791-99f6-bffa7dbd6293 Enrique Delgado http://www.enriquedelgado.com/articles/2007/05/01/slicehost-deprec-plug-in Rails rails plugins capistrano deployment deprec
