Built with D3.js.

Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

I've been trying to understand how to setup systems from the ground up on Ubuntu. I just installed redis onto the box and here's how I did it and some things to look out for.

To install:

eskim

set :deploy_to, "/usr/share/my-app"

namespace :play do
   task :setup do
      run "mkdir -p #{deploy_to}"
      upload "my-app/start.sh", "#{deploy_to}/start.sh", :mode => '755', :via => :scp
      upload "my-app/stop.sh", "#{deploy_to}/stop.sh", :mode => '755', :via => :scp
   end

   task :deploy do

eskim

namespace :deploy do

   task :restart do
     stop
     sleep 1
     start
   end

   task :start do
     targets = find_servers_for_task(current_task)
