master.key

[rubydesign]

Hi, and mainly thanks. Banged my head against a wall with capistrano ssh for hours and got mina up in minutes. Great job

But then it did take me a while to figure out the missing master.key The docs don't mention this (oh i'm deploying rails v7 ) and i assumed mina/rails would have done this. (only got the hint when the auto generated deploy still talks about secrets. No more secrets :-) )

I could try and fix this, maybe a copy in the setup would be smooth. But at least a mention in the readme?

Thanks for the work guys, Torsten

You can set an env var of RAILS_MASTER_KEY=yoursecret or put the master.key in your shared files directive:

set :shared_files, fetch(:shared_files, []).concat(%w(
  config/master.key
))

I would probably just suggest you put the value RAILS_MASTER_KEY along side your other environment variables.

Maybe i was unclear: I do have my deploy working. (and i don't use environemt since it can be avoided)

The suggestion was mainly to update the rails part / documentation. But if you are beyond maintenance i understand, just close this.

Issue here with the shared files:

set :shared_files, fetch(:shared_files, []).concat(
  ['config/credentials/staging.key', 'config/credentials/production.key']
)

Then i run

❯ bundle exec mina setup to=staging

But the key files are not there:

Mina v1.2.4

Anything I'm missing? 🤔

[dillonhafer]

You are responsible for uploading your key files to /var/www/travclub.com/staging/shared/config/credentials

Mina will simply symlink the files in the shared folder into the current release.
