Pretty simple gem that just replaces http authentication passwords (user:pass@host) with ‘xxx.’
This is useful if you have a mercurial repo behind http authentication and you don’t want your password spalyed all over your terminal every time you deploy.
sudo gem install cap_password_filter
Just install it and then add
require 'cap_password_filter'
to your deploy.rb
That’s it. This gem isn’t that important though, and I’m not sure it’s worth introducing a dependency on this gem into your deploy script, so I usually do something like this instead, just to be nice:
begin require 'cap_password_filter' rescue LoadError puts "** You should run gem install cap_password_filter if having your password logged to the console bothers you.\n\n" end
v1.0.2
- added rdoc instead of plain text readme
