Please give us a non heroku install

[gerroon]

HI

I am just a user and I do not know what heroku is, I try to follow your install guide asking me my heroku creds. I am not a dev and I should not be providing some 3rd part credfs to insall this app at least last time I installed this long time ago I did not need it.

It would be nice if you can provide straight forward installation for non dev users. If that is the only way then I guess I will personally need to move on to another application.

thanks

Trying to deploy to digitalocean with dokku any tips?

[jmblasco]

It seems impossible to install in another linux vps.

[dnwilson]

@jmblasco I was able to get this installed on digital ocean. I can submit the changes made in a few if you are interested.

[jmblasco]

Yes, of course, Dane. Publish it asap. I'll try in my own vps (aruba.it).

Dear sir, I need to deploy the siwapp project on a centos server. The siwapp (RoR) project does not allow me to perform the deployment on my server using the bundle procedure.

You can provide me with some documentation about the deployment on a server other than heroku.

@jvasquezgeain @jmblasco this might help. This is taking into consideration that you've setup dokku on your VPS https://github.com/siwapp/siwapp/pull/310

Hello @dnwilson and thanks for your great contribution. Could you explain in few lines how to command a fresh siwapp install with dokku? Best regards

[dnwilson]

@proptrading sorry about the delay. You need to add an app.json file.
"predeploy": "bundle exec rake db:setup" - is the key line in this file and is only necessary for the very first deploy.

{
  "name": "siwapp",
  "description": "Online Invoice Management",
  "keywords": [
    "dokku",
    "rails",
    "siwapp"
  ],
  "scripts": {
    "dokku": {
      "predeploy": "bundle exec rake db:setup",
      "postdeploy": "bundle exec rake db:migrate"
    }
  }
}

Instructions for a basic install on a barebones linux machine would be great too.

Instructions for a basic install on a barebones linux machine would be great too.

The default instructions for ruby on rails will work

The only extra stuff is to do rake db:setup for the first setup of the app
