ruby on rails - How do I symlink my product images in production on a Capistrano deploy? -

I have found a solution to my problem every time when I run my Spree Commerce app with Capistrano, my images Is still deleted, but folder names are incorrect) and I have to add them via admin.

On both questions and in that question it is said that there is a symlinking solution.

You need to make sure that your RARS_ROT / Public / Spree directory is being synchronized with the Captivates shared directory and whenever you deploy it, it is not being symlinked, Then your images will be lost on your deployment.

I have tried some things but I do not manage to symlink my pictures.

They are in the folder / public / spree / products on the server that I have tried:

  Namespace: Deploying tasks: launching; Finished work: stop; End work: run symlink_shared run "ln -nfs # {shared_path} / shared / spree / # {release_path} / public / spree / end end  

but it does not work I know It is not that I need to enter which shared path. I hope someone can help me or provide a link with an explanation.

If you are using Captianstorno 3 you can use the same method that I explained to you in the answer to your question.

In the pretext, : shared_children do this in Capitolarano 2, but it has been removed in favor of : linked_file and : linked_dirs .

Just add your public / spree / directory to your repository , add it to .gitignore if you need it (it does not matter if it's git ), : linked_dirs :

  to use your  deploy Rb  Set: Linked_Dearrs,% w (public / spree)  

This is the way, when the capitrons are deployed, then automatically create a directory in share / And link it to your current release Please keep in mind that if you need the files to be present in that directory, you can manually add them to share / share using the rsync . The same goes for files like database.yml (for which you use : linked_files ).
