The RubyWorks Production Stack
is a yum repository (collection of binary RPM packages) that provides
all software components needed to host a Rails application on a RedHat
Enterprise Linux 4 or CentOS 4. It's pre-configured and ready to
go.
Installing RubyWorks is simple:
- Point your package manager (up2date or yum) to the appropriate RubyWorks package repository hosted on http://rubyworks.rubyforge.org/
- Type "up2date rubyworks" ("yum install rubyworks" on CentOS).
- Sit back and relax. Two minutes later you can browse to http://localhost:3001
and see a "Welcome To Rails" page, served by a cluster of four Mongrels,
running in production mode, proxied behind HAProxy and monitored by
monit.
- Automatically get upgrades, bug fixes and security patches,
tested for backward-compatibility with a specific minor version of
Rails (1.2 at present).
- Begin coding.
