Installing Curvature in Production

Precompile the Assets

Precompile all the static assets to prevent rails compiling them on every request.

rake assets:precompile:all

Setup Apache

Install apache modules:

sudo a2enmod proxy
sudo a2enmod proxy_balancer
sudo a2enmod proxy_http
sudo a2enmod rewrite

Create an Apache Virtual Host, this configuration will use Apache to serve all the static files, and unicorn for all the non-static application work.

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName domain.com
  ServerAlias www.domain.com

  # Point at curvatures public folder
  DocumentRoot /opt/curvature/public

  RewriteEngine On

  <Proxy balancer://unicornservers>
    BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:3000
  </Proxy>

  # Redirect all non-static requests to unicorn.
  RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ balancer://unicornservers%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA,L]

  ProxyPassReverse / balancer://unicornservers/
  ProxyPreserveHost on

  <Proxy *>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
  </Proxy>

  # Custom log file locations
  ErrorLog  /opt/curvature/log/error.log
  CustomLog /opt/curvature/log/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

After setting up virtual hosts remember to restart apache.

Starting Unicorn

Start the unicorn application server.

bundle exec unicorn -p 3000 -E production

Test Application Server

You can test if unicorn is working correctly by accessing http://localhost:3000 on the machine that Curvature is running on.

Test Apache Proxying

Accessing this machine in a browser should now proxy the application, and you should see curvature without having a port number.
