rubyworks-ec2 0.1.4
The
rubyworks-ec2
project is now hosted on
RubyForge.
The gem can be installed by invoking
gem i rubyworks-ec2
or can be downloaded from the project's
RubyForge page.
Thanks to Markus Bengts's input, version 0.1.4 adds a list of new features to the mix.
A
capify-for-ec2
executable that will create or update the existing
Capfile
and
config/deploy.rb
files to include the EC2 Capistrano recipes. It will also copy server configuration files (e.g. config files for apache2, monit, mysql, etc) to your local working copy's
config/server
directory.
Think of
config/server
as a local copy of the EC2 server instance's filesystem. The files in
config/server
can be edited before bootstrapping the instance. They will be copied to the EC2 instance when
cap instance:bootstrap
is invoked.
The default configuration has been changed so that Monit manages MySQL, and MySQL is allowed to use more RAM (up to about 600MB if needed). MySQL and Monit are configured so that slow queries are written to a log file (default slow query limit is 2 seconds). Monit alerts if that file has been changed.
This release also allows specifying additional apt packages and gems to install on
cap instance:bootstrap.
To do so, add packages and gems to the lists that were copied to
config/deploy.rb
by
capify-for-ec2.
