mrnginx

Summarymrnginx stands for mongrel_cluster rails nginx. It's a helper script which makes configuring multiple Rails sites with mongrel_cluster and nginx ridiculously easy. Currently, this script is configured for Ubuntu Server, however with a little tweaking it should work on other distros. ... [More] Here's what it does: creates mongrel_cluster YAML configuration file symlinks this file to /etc/mongrel_cluster creates nginx vhost file overwrites (and backs up) nginx configuration file (/etc/nginx/nginx.conf) restarts mongrel_cluster restarts nginx Before it does anything, it will list what it is about to do and await your confirmation. Prerequisitesrubygems (to install the following gems) apt-get rubygems (on Ubuntu) mongrel gem install mongrel mongrel_cluster gem install mongrel_cluster nginx apt-get nginx Example usagecd /var/www/apps/myrailsapp mrnginx -s myrailsapp.com,myrailsapp.netThat's it!
