# Deploy Rails 4 app with Dokku on DigitalOcean

## Install dokku

First create a Ubuntu 13.04 x64 droplet on DigitalOcean Control Panel

Then ssh with root account, run this in termianl:

```bash
$ wget -qO- https://raw.github.com/progrium/dokku/master/bootstrap.sh | sudo bash
```

## Config dokku

```bash
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh root@192.241.231.58 "gitreceive upload-key dokku"

$ git remote add dokku git@[SERVER_IP_ADDRESS]:[APP_NAME]
```

## Deploy Rails app

Add `gem 'rails_12factor'` to `Gemfile`


Then install dokku PG plugin: https://github.com/Kloadut/dokku-pg-plugin

```bash
cd /var/lib/dokku/plugins
git clone https://github.com/Kloadut/dokku-pg-plugin postgresql
dokku plugins-install
```

Create app database

```bash
root@mg-dokku:~# dokku postgresql:create [APP_NAME]
```

Then `$ git push dokku master` to deploy.

When it finished, run `$ docker ps -a` to show status:

```bash
root@mg-dokku:~# docker ps -a
ID                  IMAGE                  COMMAND                CREATED             STATUS              PORTS
290ae95c5ae7        app/mg:latest          /bin/bash -c /start    3 minutes ago       Up 3 minutes        49153->49153
1b79bc29ae77        postgresql/mg:latest   /usr/bin/start_pgsql   6 minutes ago       Up 6 minutes        49156->5432
root@mg-dokku:~#
```

But we have not run database migrations yet. Let's do it:

```bash
root@mg-dokku:~# docker run -i -t app/mg /bin/bash
root@085f103bec8a:/# cd app/
root@085f103bec8a:/app# RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate
Your Ruby version is 1.9.3, but your Gemfile specified 2.0.0
```

It fails, we try another way:

```bash
root@mg-dokku:~# docker run app/mg /bin/bash -c "cd /app ; rake db:migrate"
rake aborted!
Your Ruby version is 1.9.3, but your Gemfile specified 2.0.0
```

Fails too. :(

Here's a workaround: https://github.com/progrium/dokku/issues/156#issuecomment-22330945 

```bash
root@085f103bec8a:/app# export HOME=/app
root@085f103bec8a:~# for file in /app/.profile.d/*; do source $file; done
root@085f103bec8a:~# hash -r
root@085f103bec8a:~# cd /app
root@085f103bec8a:~# RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate

Then visit `http://[SERVER_IP_ADDRESS]:49153`

Yeah!
