how to access the release variable?

[deadb...@gmail.com]

If release_path = /Deploy/nrpe/releases/20150225183149

Is there a variable to access the 20150225183149 part?  Or some other method?

Thank you

Sorry my brain was thinking config/deploy.rb and not shell.  

If I was in a shell I could do

var=` basename /var/www/app/release/201501222`

echo $var

I'm not sure how to assign the output of a command to a variable within config/deploy.rb that can then be later included in an execute command.

Exactly like that, variables are variables. You could use the set()/fetch() API, but there's no need.

that worked, sort of.  I'm getting either CRLF or LF as the trailing character(s).   Can you show me an example of using a chomp on a variable?  I've tried

      puts "%DEBUG%:myVar:#{myVar}.chomp(\r\n)****"

but that doesn't work.

      puts "%DEBUG%:myVar:#{myVar.strip}****"
