SaltStack Rails setup

This is a sample SaltStack provisioning configuration for Rails applications.

It deploys the following stack:

• Nginx (with domains setup)
• Puma (with puma-manager Upstart script)
• RVM
• Multiple Ruby versions and Gemsets
• Multiple applications (and secrets.yml)
• NodeJS runtime for assets precompile
• MySql (with user and DB setup)
• SSH authorized key for deploy user
• Swap partition setup

You don't have to change anything in order to test this setup.

Important: Be sure to modify structure or store your copy in a private repository in order to keep the keys and secrets safe.

Quick start

# install client
curl -L https://bootstrap.saltstack.com -o install_salt.sh
sudo sh install_salt.sh

# specify it is local
sudo sh -c "echo 'file_client: local' >> /etc/salt/minion"

# specify pillar root
sudo sh -c "echo 'pillar_roots:\n  base:\n    - /srv/salt/pillar' >> /etc/salt/minion"

# install git
sudo apt-get install -y git

# clone SaltStack configuration
sudo git clone https://github.com/lifecoderua/saltstack-rails.git /srv/salt

# apply states
sudo salt-call --local state.highstate

Congratulations, you are bundled!

ToDo:

• provide Wiki with Puma config sample
