Hello all,
I am creating my first capistrano-rails deployment script and would like a little advice. The goal of my scrip tis to use 1 script to deploy any app that I want. So of course I will pass in the name and have all the repository info in the code. Right now to get started, I only have one question:
How can I generate the capistrano files so that I can utilize the code already generated and not have to rewrite anything that I don’t need to? I know I can put information about the repository and it already has code for deploying and rolling back. I just need to know how I can generate that template so that I have a starting point.
Also any suggestions or rules of thumb for this kind of thing are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Lee,
I don’t have an application yet. So are you telling me that I should generate a vanilla app and run this then just pull the files from there?
I guess that makes sense.

Capistrano is used to put the app (you haven't built yet) into production, you might be a bit early for looking at deployment.

I have apps that I want to deploy. What I don’t want to do is have a separate cap deploy process for each app. I want to unify this into 1 deploy script that I can use to deploy any app that I wish. Basically I want to keep all the railsy stuff but decouple it from the app so that I can use it with any app in my repository.
1 script for many apps.
My initial question was about generating all the cap install code without having an application so that I can start modifying it and testing it with apps I currently have in my repository.
The goal is to be able to type deploy.rb <some_app> and utilize capistrano’s code to do what it does best.

Just have a stub Capfile in each app, but the Capfile just pulls in code
from a shared file with the actual shared logic, perhaps getting it from
a (local, private) ruby gem. Perhaps using ruby 'load' to pull in the
shared logic. A Capfile is just ruby, you can do anything in it you can
do with ruby.
