Capistrano::DeploymentStatus

A task for Capistrano v3 which adds a simple html page to your deployed rails app to show the details of the deployment.

• application
• branch/tag
• deploy time
• deployed by
• scm revision
• release timestamp

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano-deployment-status'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install capistrano-deployment-status

Usage

Require the gem in your Capfile:

require 'capistrano/deployment_status'

Currently, that's it. A task will run at the end of the deploy that will place the rendered file wherever you'd like. By default it's destination is public/deployment_status.html. You can override this default with:

set :deploy_status_destination, "app/views/admin/secret_status_file.html"

Roadmap

The final feature I'm planning to implement is to allow a custom template. This would allow full control over content and styling. It could also be generated and then saved as an .html.erb file for further processing at runtime.
