Deploying Rails with an interactive Capistrano recipe to your Boxcar

I wanted to share something that I’ve been meaning to share on here.
When we began planning Rails Boxcar, we really want to reduce the amount of work that it took to setup and deploy a VPS for a Rails application. During this period, we began to look at the deployment process itself and began working on an interactive tool for developers for setting up their deployment environment on their Boxcar instances. So, we worked with few customers to develop an interactive Capistrano recipe.
The Goal? Spend less time configuring the server or editing recipe files.
During the initial setup, we can have the customer provide a few details from the safety of their Rails application directory by answering the following.
- What database server will you be using? (PostgreSQL or MySQL)
- What port does your database run on? (if different than the default for your db server)
- What is your database username?
- What is your database user’s password?
- What port will your mongrel cluster start with?
- How many mongrel servers should your cluster run?
Great… setup the server and let’s deploy!
Feel free to snag our interactive Capistrano2 recipe.
We’re trying to take the pain out of deploying your Ruby on Rails applications with Boxcar.
On a side note, we’re in the process of expanding our team and recently hired Alex Malinovich. Do stay tuned as we’ll be posting important announcements about changes to our Rails hosting services in the next few weeks. (grin)

That’s a very good idea! This should help make things a lot faster and easier for us. Rails should be a lot more convenient.
Hi there.. I want to ask if it is possible to setup an enviroment for one master and four slave Mysql databases.. where slaves are going to be creating and sending all the record to the master.. using a RoR application.. installed in all 4 laptops..
Master would be only for receiving information and getting reports..
