Just before christmas I worked with one of our customers new server cluster or cloud if you may.
This cluster has production nodes and staging nodes and this post is about how to get capistrano to play nice with both production and the staging environment.

I got so tired of all the messy capistrano output so today I released my first public gem.
The name of the gem is capistrano_colors and the aim of the gem is to put some nice and shiny colors on capistrano output. The gem has only been tested with rails but should work wherever capistrano works.
Keep on reading to see some screenshots!

Finally my friends at newsdesk have a blog. They have started off real good with a comparison of three ruby wrappers for Google charts.
I have great expectations from the newsdesk developers blog. If you are a Ruby and Rails developer you should definitely keep and eye on them!

Today one of our server got in trouble with an ACE encoded IDN domain. The problem seemed to be rails in combination with nginx’s X-Sendfile feature. The result became that when accessing the site trough the IDN domain x-senfile did not send any files….
Our quick and dirty solution (until we have found the source/or solved the problem) became redirecting all traffic from the IDN domain to the domain without strange-swedish-characters.
With nginx this is as simple as in most webservers just put the following code before you original server configuration in nginx.conf.

| server {
server_name xn--svenskdomn-y5a.se www.xn--svenskdomn-y5a.se;
rewrite ^(.*) http://www.svenskdoman.se$1 permanent;
} |
And Bowang! All requests to www.svenskdomän.se will be redirected to www.svenskdoman.se.
Domain names have been changed to protect the innocent 
Cheers!
