I鈥檝e put up a teeny little gem which compiles some Capistrano tasks I鈥檝e developed and been using for a while. Just to learn how to compile a gem by myself and also how to create a cookbook.
It鈥檚 also the first time I make public some of my code, and well, it鈥檚 exciting. Forking, testing, comments, suggestions are of course welcome. I鈥檓 willing to listen to everything you might suggest, from changing names of symbols, using other commands, or even changing the license. That鈥檚 the point of releasing it into the wild :) Thanks in advance.
You can get the gem at github.com/jantequera/capistrano-tasks. Where else?
I used this article (bit outdated, tho) by Tim Riley and the Webficient Capistrano Cookbook to learn the how-to. The second link provides a gem/cookbook much more suitable for production use, if you鈥檙e looking for one. I consider my gem for personal use and learning.
