I’ve been developing my first rails application on my windows computer.
But now i have been setting up a debian server with nginx and passanger.
I’ve been using Github to keep track of my application and now i am wondering how i can get the Github version of my application to the debian server and put it in production mode?
Anybody that have a good guide about this or something?
Getting the code to your production server is just the tip of the iceberg. What if you want to rollback to the previous version? Or tag a specific version and deploy it? How will you deal with different versions of configuration files for your development vs. production scenarios?
That’s why you need Capistrano. It lets you do all this (and more) from the command line of your development machine. Take a look at the “From the Beginning” chapter to get started.
You’ll also need some basic knowledge of shell commands and SSH.
Also have a look at the Phusion Passenger docs to see what is needed on the server side.
