Not really. Unfortunately, it took me a while to figure out that the values defined in a deploy.rb file are global and can't be changed on a per-role basis.
In the end, I gave up on changing those values (such as deploy_to) based on roles and worked around it. I find capistrano to be fairly inflexible and difficult to extend with the additional app I wanted to deploy from the same configuration. Sorry I didn't reply until now, I didn't receive a notification about your question and didn't notice it until now. - David On Friday, December 11, 2015 at 7:08:45 PM UTC+2, Lee Hambley wrote: > > Hi David, > > Still struggling? > > Lee Hambley > http://lee.hambley.name/ > +49 (0) 170 298 5667 > > On 9 December 2015 at 19:06, David Resnick <abun...@gmail.com > <javascript:>> wrote: > >> I'm new to Capistrano and am trying to figure something out. >> >> I have a codebase that until now has been a Ruby on Rails application >> (using Ruby 2.1.2), using Capistrano to deploy. >> >> Now I'd also like to run the codebase as a Ruby script based service (no >> Rails and not listening for HTTP requests).
