[Radiant] Deployment database merging

2009-12-13 Thread Konstantin Antipin
Hi everybody,
I am developing a blog for a customer using Radiant 0.8.1
What is the usual way of deploying radiant to the production server?

Since lot's of configuration is stored in the database, I need to overwrite
db on the server with my development db (with capistrano it is not a
problem).
But this will work only if I am the only one who updates the website. And
what if customer in a meanwhile has published new post? I need to merge
databases somehow.
There was a similar question some time ago (
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/167040 ), but there was no real
conclusion...

So, how do _you_ deploy your radiant website? How do you solve issue with
database merge? This must have some simple answer, but I can't see one...

my best,
Konstantin

PS It would be absolutely awesome if you share your capistrano recipe in
case you use it ;)

heroku has a tool called taps that i use for this purpose; it's not
tied to the heroku service at all so you can use it to push/pull
databases from any where you like.

[Radiant] Question regarding layouts

2009-12-13 Thread Horst Rischbode
Hello,

I'm new to radiant, so please excuse, if my question is stupid...

Is there a way of holding the layout in seperate files in my application?

As far as I understand, the common way is to hold the layout in the 
database. I would prefer to develop my layout with my favourite editor 
and then deploy the files for the new layout to my production site.

Any hint would be appreciated!

Thanks
Horst

That is awesome. I've often wished that Capistrano would do something 
like that. I guess it could be set up in a task in the deployment 
recipe. Hmm.

The second one looks like it does the right things. I will give it a try.

Thanks for the quick answer!
