Auto detecting /web and /public

[kerns]

@pgib Sorry, I've tried everything I can think of on a number of machines now, and it really feels like this feature is broken in the most recent version of your wonderful script.

Note that vhost-stage is just my alias for your script,...It is running in batch mode, but still...it seems to completely ignore the existence of web or public subfolders. And if I disable batch mode it just ignores or fails to ask about web or public altogether.

$ vhost-stage what.kerns.co
Create http://what.kerns.co:80/? [Y/n]: Y
+ Looking in /Users/dvk/Sites for an existing document root to use...
  - Use /Users/dvk/Sites/what.kerns.co as the virtualhost folder? [Y/n] Y
  - Found a public folder suggesting a Rails/Merb/Rack project. Use as DocumentRoot? [y/N] + Creating virtualhost file... done
+ Restarting Apache... done

I rely on this feature as I typically organize project materials like /docs and /logs and other things I don't want part of the public-facing web part of the project at the root level of the folder.

Would you mind just testing this in your own environment at some point?

Sorry. @pgib ...just wanted to clarify a few things. One is that I did of course boost my max search depth, I think it is set to 5.

Two, and this is just to be clear about my wishes –  "the dream" is to be able to create a folder at some location, say... ~/Sites/projects/my-site/public ...and then run . virtualhost.sh my-site and have the script intelligently set the web root set to /Users/dvk/Sites/projects/my-site/public

And it seems like this dream used to be a reality....or what?

This seems to work for me:

$ mkdir -p ~/Sites/my-site/public
$ virtualhost.sh my-site
virtualhost.sh requires super-user privileges to work.
Enter your password to continue...
Checking for updates... none found
Create http://my-site:80/? [Y/n]: y
+ Looking in /Users/patrick/Sites for an existing document root to use...
  - Use /Users/patrick/Sites/my-site as the virtualhost folder? [Y/n] 
  - Found a public folder suggesting a Rails/Rack project. Use as DocumentRoot? [y/N] y
+ Creating virtualhost file... done
+ Flushing cache... done
+ Restarting Apache... done

http://my-site:80/ is setup and ready for use.

Launching virtualhost... done

And then my virtual host file has:

# Created Tue Aug 20 12:44:28 PDT 2013
<VirtualHost *:80>
  DocumentRoot "/Users/patrick/Sites/my-site/public"
  ServerName my-site
  #ServerAlias your.alias.here

  ScriptAlias /cgi-bin "/Users/patrick/Sites/my-site/public/cgi-bin"

  <Directory "/Users/patrick/Sites/my-site/public">
    Options All
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
  </Directory>

  #CustomLog "" combined
  #ErrorLog ""

</VirtualHost>

Oh, I see: in BATCH_MODE, this is not working.
