Deploying Rails to Linode

Installing Ruby Enterprise Edition, Apache, MySQL, and Passenger for deploying Rails 3.0 applications.

Get a Linode, and set it up with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS so that you have till April 2013 to get updates. Once the Linode is formatted, boot it and continue on.

Set up an 'A' record in your DNS, pointing to the IP of your Linode. I'm using demo.napcs.com here.

Initial setup

<?php

// secure hashing of passwords using bcrypt, needs PHP 5.3+
// see http://codahale.com/how-to-safely-store-a-password/

// salt for bcrypt needs to be 22 base64 characters (but just [./0-9A-Za-z]), see http://php.net/crypt
$salt = substr(strtr(base64_encode(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(22)), '+', '.'), 0, 22);

// 2y is the bcrypt algorithm selector, see http://php.net/crypt
// 12 is the workload factor (around 300ms on my Core i7 machine), see http://php.net/crypt

Installing a Gem on Heroku from a Private GitHub Repo

Sometimes you want to use a gem on Heroku that is in a private repository on GitHub.

Using git over http you can authenticate to GitHub using basic authentication. However, we don't want to embed usernames and passwords in Gemfiles. Instead, we can use authentication tokens.

First you will need to get an OAuth Token from GitHub using your own username and "note"
