For a basic deployment recipe, check out Basic Deployment with Capistrano This episode demonstrates how to extend deployment to deploy to stage and production. Overall it’s rather simple. All it entails is creating a new task for each stage you want to deploy to with the settings you need changed. Here’s an example: task :stage do role :web, "stage.teachmetocodeacademy.com" # Your HTTP server, Apache/etc role :app, "stage.teachmetocodeacademy.com" # This may be the same as your `Web` server role :db, "stage.teachmetocodeacademy.com", :primary => true # This is where Rails migrations will run set :deploy_to, '/var/www/stage-teachmetocodeacademy/' set :user, 'deploy' end That will allow you to run `cap stage deploy` to deploy to your staging environment.   Download 55.3 MB Download (iPod & iPhone) 35.1 MB
