iqdbs is a service for running IQDB. It listens on Amazon SQS for update requests to download and process images, and also has a simple web frontend for query requests. iqdbs runs a separate daemon process to handle SQS messages, and a Unicorn+ Sinatra frontend for handling HTTP reqests. You can deploy using Capistrano. It's recommended you fork this project and modify the following files: config/deploy/production.rb .env A sample .env file called .env-SAMPLE is included in the project. The .env file itself is symlinked during deployment so you should create a version on the server at /var/www/iqdbs/shared/.env.
