Different services I can suggest when a non-tech friend or family member asks me how they can cheaply make a website and possibly use it to sell stuff online.

Website Hosting

In my previous post I described how to securely acquire the Mozilla list of root certificates and convert them to a form usable by curl and various libraries which don't ship with them.

Next, I want to point Net:HTTP at this file library-wide, so that it is used by all invocations of methods accessing https resources (in particular, Kernel#open, which in ruby 1.8.7 does not have a ca_file option and is therefore unusable with https). I hunted around the ruby standard library for a couple hours and came up with this:

require 'open-uri'
require 'net/https'

module Net
 class HTTP


	# vmc update is great for test and development, however it stops your old app and stages and starts the new one,
	# resulting in dropped requests.
	# If you want to update an application without dropping user requests, see below.
	# NOTE: This change assumes your application can share services, etc with the new version.

	# Assume my app is named foo

	vmc push foo-v2 --url foov2.cloudfoundry.com
