This is the example contents of the Rakefile, which you would use to run active record tasks without using Rails. It assumes using the same directories as rails uses: `db/migrate`, `config/database.yml`.
require 'bundler/setup'
require 'active_record'
include ActiveRecord::Tasks
db_dir = File.expand_path('../db', __FILE__)
config_dir = File.expand_path('../config', __FILE__)
DatabaseTasks.env = ENV['ENV'] || 'development'

My Heroku values

Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style

Ubuntu 12.04 Ruby, Rails, Nginx, Unicorn

Ubuntu 12.04, Ruby, Rails, Nginx, Unicorn and git-deploy

In the seemlingly endless search for the actual correct and easy way to deploy a Rails app, we have tried several ways. We tried out using Apache2 and running a cluster of Thin servers. With the built in threading of Puma we decided to use it with Nginx.

Server Setup

  • Create new server
  • Login to new server
    • ssh root@IPaddress (you can also use the domain name if you have the DNS setup already)
    • accept the RSA key

1. Ich denke, also ist es nicht XGH.
In XGH wird nicht gedacht, es wird das erste gemacht, was in den Sinn kommt. Es gibt auch keine zweite Option, die erste ist schneller.
2. Es gibt 3 Wege ein Problem zu lösen: den richtigen Weg, den falschen Weg und den XGH Weg, welcher exakt wie der falsche ist, aber schneller.
