Getting Started with Capistrano
Having been intrigued by the prospect of using Capistrano to deploy Rails applications, I recently went through the exercise of getting it up and running.
Last night I shared that experience with the Sydney Rails Group. My talk, Getting Started with Capistrano in Ten Easy Steps (PDF), seemed to be well received, as were the presentations by Max Muermann on Custom Date Handling and Tim Lucas on Adding RSpec to your project. Thanks to Jason Crane for coaxing the assembled rabble into some sort of order and to the people at Job Futures for providing the room.
At the end of formal proceedings lively discussion ensued at a nearby pub on a range of topics including the prospect of an Australian Rails podcast. If you're interested in Ruby on Rails, want to learn more and will be in Sydney on 14th March, why not come along to the next meeting?
