I've noticed that during deployments, monit will sometimes see that unicorn, sidekiq etc have no pidfiles so will try to start them before the deploy is completed. Does anyone have a solution for this?

I'm thinking of writing a capistrano lockfile when the deploy is started and removing it when finished, then monit can skip its checks for the affected services if the lockfile exists.

But if you click a button_to so it opens in a new tab it will load a GET request. Tested in Chrome and Safari.

Has anyone got a monit template for Sidekiq and/or Redis?

I'm having a bit of a hard time setting the pidfiles up correctly with Unicorn Zero Downtime Deployments. This is where I'm at right now https://gist.github.com/3818705

Thanks

Thanks Ryan. I've been working on a some simple tagging with the native Postgres string-array type this week, it seems to work very well although I don't have any comparative data on performance yet.

https://github.com/dockyard/postgres_ext was a huge help for getting started with it.

You might want to look at fuzzy matching

Love this, thanks.

The Textmate snippet for Sublime Text -

class Object
  def subl(method_name)
    file, line = method(method_name).source_location
    `subl '#{file}:#{line}'`
  end
end

If I'm not mistaken this allows a blank password (and confirmation) to be submitted when resetting the password, because in this case the validates_presence_of :password is only called on creation of a user.

have you tried using
validates_presence_of :password, on: :create

Amazing tip. Thanks!

*cease :)

Which log have you looked at? You probably want to check your unicorn/production logs

Shhh... that's a dev secret :P

Yep, you just need to do things a little differently when initially ssh'ing/setting up your keys

Thanks Ryan, this is superb.

Reassuring to see that it's pretty similar to what I bodged together after watching your Vagrant/Unicorn screencasts https://gist.github.com/1985879

Can't you just use an ordered list <ol>?

You could also use

$('#person_state_id').parent().toggle(options)

+1 For more deployment screencasts please! I'd be fascinated to see your deployment process.

Maybe it will encourage them to speed things along :)

Thanks for accommodating us non-US users with this cast. Hopefully Stripe will do too soon.

The auto indexing looks nice/simpler than sphinx. It'll be interesting to see how they compare in production. Thanks Ryan!

Completely agree with this, I hope there is a supported way to not have to load a single large file.

Are these new roles going to phase out CanCan?
