• Deployment instructions

devise todo

Some setup you must do manually if you haven't yet:

1. Ensure you have defined default url options in your environments files. Here is an example of default_url_options appropriate for a development environment in config/environments/development.rb:

    config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { host: 'localhost', port: 3000 }
   

In production, :host should be set to the actual host of your application.

2. Ensure you have defined root_url to something in your config/routes.rb. For example:

    root to: "home#index"
   

3. Ensure you have flash messages in app/views/layouts/application.html.erb. For example:

    <p class="notice"><%= notice %></p>
    <p class="alert"><%= alert %></p>
   

4. If you are deploying on Heroku with Rails 3.2 only, you may want to set:

    config.assets.initialize_on_precompile = false
   

In config/application.rb forcing your application to not access the DB or load models when precompiling your assets.

5. You can copy Devise views (for customization) to your app by running:

    rails g devise:views
