We're building a WAR for our Rails app and deploying it with
Capistrano.
- Our build machine invokes Warbler's Rake task
- Warbler builds the WAR file into artifacts/app.war
When someone wants to deploy, there's a button on the build machine
that runs `cap deploy`.
The standard Capistrano deployment recipe needed just a couple of
tweaks to work for our situation:
namespace :deploy do
task :update_code, :roles => :app do
on_rollback { run "rm -rf -- \"#{release_path}\"" }
create_tomcat_directory_structure_under release_path
source_war_path = "artifacts/#{war_filename}"
target_war_path = File.join(release_path, 'webapps',
war_filename)
top.upload source_war_path, target_war_path
end
task :finalize_update do
# no finalization necessary with a WAR deployment
end
end
The `update_code task` uploads the WAR to somewhere useful, and the
`finalize_update` task need to doesn't do anything -- our per-release
Tomcat directory structure already has links pointed at the
appropriate shared directories.
I extracted our Tomcat deployment recipe into a gem called capistrano-
tomcat[1] but the main part of it is simply those two overrrides.
