Stuff for Backends

A collection of configuration scripts for Ruby on Rails applications hosted in Ubuntu servers. Most of the work present here should work in Ubuntu 12.04+.

Scrips located in dependencies folder are meant to work with debian-based Linux distros.

NOTE: All scripts asume you're setting up an AWS Ubuntu EC2 instance. This means that the system user in all scripts is always ubuntu. Bear it in mind when applying these scripts to a different system user.

Usage

Run scripts with sudo bash command, e.g:

$ sudo bash ./dependencies/install_nginx.sh

Except dependencies/install_rvm.sh which SHOULD be run only with bash command. Doing as super user, would install RVM under /root folder. We don't want that.
