Donovan, Kudos for giving a longer answer, but when you are "deploying" to a local server, what you are really doing is building the app, deploying, sort of by definition is getting something from somewhere, and putting it somewhere else…
I'd argue rake is the correct tool for a *lot* of what people misuse capistrano for; and particularly in this case, Rake fits the bill perfectly for building/releasing when everything is in one place. - Lee On Wednesday, June 6, 2012 at 5:38 PM, Donovan Bray wrote: > Possibly if you override the sudo, run, and make them call run_locally > > That being said I've deployed to localhost by setting up a specific key for > the deploy user, and it worked fine and preserved the ability to deploy to > stages that weren't localhost. > > What's so bad about ssh'ing to itself? > > Other ideas can be found here > > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8692664/how-do-i-execute-a-capistrano-task-locally > > On Jun 6, 2012, at 7:48 AM, jdgriffith <[email protected] > (mailto:[email protected])> wrote: > > > I am curious about using capistrano to deploy to the selfsame server on > > which the recipe lives on without doing an ssh connection since it is not > > needed.
