Mana

Configuration management with Chef & Capistrano

Installation

Step 1

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mana'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install mana

Step 2

Init project with Chef, Capistrano and Vagrant configs:

rake mana:install

Edit config/deploy.rb to provide application name, SCM repository etc. and Chef cookbook params.

Edit Vagrantfile to match your available Vagrant boxes and personal taste.

Edit Chef cookbooks under config/deploy/cookbooks directory to add software.

Usage

Setup all software on server:

cap <stage> mana:setup

where <stage> is server name. Individual stages can be added in config/deploy/ directory. See default vagrant stage for details.

Use ordinary cap deploy-like stuff for later deploys and cap mana:install for configuration upgrades.

Use cap -T mana to see useful stuff added after this.
