Application_Ruby Cookbook

A Chef cookbook to deploy Ruby applications.

Quick Start

To deploy a Rails application from git:

application '/srv/myapp' do
  git 'https://github.com/example/myapp.git'
  bundle_install do
    deployment true
    without %w{development test}
  end
  rails do
    database 'sqlite3:///db.sqlite3'
    secret_token 'd78fe08df56c9'
    migrate true
  end
  unicorn do
    port 8000
  end
end

    migrate true
  end
end

Actions

Database Parameters

The database parameters can be set in three ways: URL, hash, and block.

If you have a single URL for the parameters, you can pass it directly to database:

rails do
  database 'mysql2://myuser@dbhost/myapp'
end

Passing a single URL will also set the $DATABASE_URL environment variable automatically for compatibility with Heroku-based applications.

As with other option collector resources, you can pass individual settings as either a hash or block:

rails do
  database do
    adapter 'mysql2'
    username 'myuser'
    host 'dbhost'
    database 'myapp'
  end
end

rails do
  database({
    adapter: 'mysql2',
    username: 'myuser',
    host: 'dbhost',
    database: 'myapp',
  })
end

application_ruby

application '/srv/myapp' do
  ruby '2.2'
end

application_ruby_gem

application '/srv/myapp' do
  ruby_gem 'rake'
end

All actions and properties are the same as the ruby_gem resource.

application_ruby_execute

The application_ruby_execute resource runs Ruby commands for the deployment.
