Can't use with Heroku

[cbmeeks]

Heroku is a read only file system. Except for /tmp but they admit that directory could be destroyed at any time.

What I do is change my application.html.erb to:

:all, :cache => true

Then, I load up the production environment, browse to a page, then notice it creates the "all.css" file.

Then, I shut down production (on my laptop) and replace the application.html.erb with "all".

Is there another way to automate this with Heroku? Maybe a rails task that would generate the cached css file?

Thanks

This is a good question. On one app that I work on I have a capistrano recipe generate the files and move them up to s3 with CloudFront.

I haven't tried it, but you could create a rake task that generated the files you want and then you could create a git post-commit that executed the rake task. This way you can automate the manual process that you are currently doing. Does that make sense?

Good luck!

Yep. Thanks for the suggestion.
