Stager

A simple application to facilitate staging rails applications.

Instructions

Edit config.yml to taste. You can use a secrets.yml file (which is automatically included) to keep your passwords and tokens.

Make sure that the paths configured in authorized_keys and git_data_path exist and are writable by the user that will run stager.

You will need a redis server on the localhost (FIXME: make this configurable....)

Migrate the database:

rake db:migrate

You can run stager like so:

bundle exec thin -R config.ru -p 9292 start

And sidekiq:

bundle exec sidekiq -r ./app.rb

You can use monit to run (and monitor) the servers instead. Use the files at config/monit-stager.conf and config/monit-sidekiq.conf for inspiration.

Disclaimer: this was hacked together quickly and is fairly buggy.

Rake Tasks

rake db:migrate  # Migrate the database
