Welcome to use `capistrano-faster-rails`!

What does this gem do?

Set conditionally_migrate to true to skip rails db:migrate if migration files not changed.
Execute copy linked_files and linked_dirs with one command on deployed servers.

Capistrano runs each command separately on their own SSH session and it takes too long to deploy an application, copy linked_files and linked_dirs on deployed servers with one command will speedup deploying process.

Skip bundle install if Gemfile isn't changed.

bundle install takes a few seconds even if Gemfile isn't changed, there is no need to execute bundle install if it isn't changed.

Skip rake assets:precompile and yarn:install if asset files aren't chagned.

rake assets:precompile and yarn:install is really slow if your Rails project has plenty of assets to precompile, even if they are not changed. There is no need to execute these commands if asset files not chagned.

Installation

Add this line to your Rails application's Gemfile and below to gem 'capistrano-rails'. if your project have capistrano-yarn installed, please add this line below to gem 'capistrano-yarn' too.

# Gemfile
gem 'capistrano-faster-rails'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

Add this line to your Rails application's Capfile and below to require 'capistrano/rails':

# Capfile
require 'capistrano/faster-rails'

use set :asset_files in config/deploy.rb to set your project assets files, asset_files default to "vendor/assets app/assets config/initializers/assets.rb"

use set :bundle_files in config/deploy.rb to set your project ruby Gemfile files, bundle_files default to "Gemfile Gemfile.lock .ruby-version"

Note

asset_files and bundle_files are both space separated string, not array!

this gem only works with git scm!
