Moonshine_Scout

A plugin Moonshine for installing
and managing the Scout gem.

Requirements

  • A Scout account
  • The agent key for your server. This key will be provided at the time you add
    your server to Scout, and is also available under the Server Admin section of
    the site.

Quickstart Instructions

  • script/plugin install git://github.com/railsmachine/moonshine_scout.git
  • Configure agent key in config/moonshine.yml

    :scout:
    :agent_key: YOUR-PRIVATE-SCOUT-KEY
  • Include the plugin and recipe(s) in your Moonshine manifest

    plugin :scout
    recipe :scout

Scout is now configured to run via cron every 3 minutes.

Advanced configuration

You can adjust the user that runs the Scout command and the interval at
which it runs by using the respective keys:

  :scout:
    :agent_key: YOUR-PRIVATE-SCOUT-KEY
    :interval:  15 # defaults to 3
    :user:      root # defaults to the moonshine user, or 'daemon' if that's not configured
