Spree does not put files inside the app directory, but works as an engine. For more information about engines, please read the Engines Guide.

I'm trying to figure out how to display the home page of my ruby on rails hello world project. It's currently live but I'm getting the README.md file contents instead of the Hello World message, which, is in the application_controller.rb file a few directories in from the root. The README.md file that's showing is at the root. live project
You can only host a static website with Github pages.
If you want to deploy your rails app I suggest to use the Heroku free plan.
Read this if you want to understand the difference between static and dynamic websites.
This is a simple question, but I haven't been able to find an exact answer to it anywhere.
I have a standalone Python script which I am using in my Rails app. What is the appropriate folder I should save it in according to convention, so that I can push it to production (currently running it from my computer's desktop)? I think the answer is lib/assets but I want to make sure.
I don't think there is an exact answer for this question.
If it is a ruby script, it is usually placed in lib or bin.
From the rails folder descriptions in Getting Started with Rails guide:
bin/ Contains the rails script that starts your app and can contain
other scripts you use to setup, deploy or run your application.
lib/ Extended modules for your application.
You could put it in lib/assets folder as it reflects your understanding that it is an external asset used in the system.
I've got a Rails site with a Jekyll blog incorporated, using the Bloggy gem.
I'd like a similar look for the main site and the blog, so I want to use the css in app/assets/stylesheets, but those files are in css.scss format. Jekyll (in a Bloggy setup) looks for css in config/jekyll/css, and seems to only want .css files; symlinking the Rails css directory into the Jekyll hierarchy doesn't seem to to work.
Is there a way to take advantage of the asset pipeline so that when I run jekyll:build, SCSS files from the Rails app are made into CSS files, placed in the appropriate jekyll directory, and bundled with the latest Jekyll build as it's placed into the /public/blog folder?
Thanks!
Ended up getting through this by:
Using the jekyll-sass gem to allow automatic transformation of the Rails app's .css.scss into .css.css files. By symlinking the Rails app/assets/stylesheets directory into Bloggy's config/jekyll/css, this put files with the right content but wrong extensions in the correct place.
Writing a rake task to make the .css.css files into .css files.
desc 'Make .css.css files into .css files'
task :css_css do
Dir.glob('public/blog/css/*.css.css').each do |file|
puts `mv #{file} #{file.gsub(/\.css\.css$/, '.css')}`
end
end
Not the prettiest solution, but it works.
#Matthew.. You have a nice solution.. For this part I did some stuffs manually. Like I added config/jekyll/css files as .css extension rather than .css.scss so when we run "rake generate" for bloggy the right format files are created on the folder public/blog/ rather css.scss.
I have made the changes in my bloggy portfolio theme project repository. If you are planning to use my version of code, I have did some changes like added robots.txt, sitemap, and integrated bootstrap to the project. I have also removed all database connections from the rails project since it was showing errors while deploying into heroku.
I have a Ruby on Rails project that I've deployed to a PaaS service via GitHub. The Git repo is structured like so:
/ (root)
README
some random files here
src (directory)
a_folder
another_folder
my_rails_app
app (directory)
config (directory)
config.ru
db (directory)
...
Gemfile
...
Rakefile
README
...
As you can see, the Rails app is two directories underneath the root. I suppose I could move it to one file underneath root if necessary, but I definitely need to have other non-Rails files tracked under version control.
But since my Rails app isn't at the root, I'm having trouble using Engine Yard, Heroku, etc... they don't know where to find the Rakefile. I tried creating a Rakefile (https://gist.github.com/245400) and placing it at the root and src directories but it still doesn't work.
Do you know what's going on here or how to fix it?
(As requested ;-D)
If you want to deploy on Heroku/Engine Yard, etc. you might just want to put all those "other folders" within the app directory (e.g. in a folder called supporting_documents or something).
Then you can have those docs under source control AND deploy on Heroku. Also, with Heroku, you'll be able to add those additional documents to the slugignore file (http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/slug-compiler) so they don't get compiled in the slug.
I have deployed my symfony app into a shared server. The problem: for example, the images and the .css of the default page that says
ok
Symfony Project Created
Congratulations! You have successfully created your symfony project.

are not loaded.
I read this but it's not enough for me..
What should I do?

You may need to symlink from your web directory to the symfony data directory. In a standard Symfony install, with Symfony inside of your lib/vendor directory, it would look like this:
ln -s ../lib/vendor/symfony/data/web/sf/ sf
Alternatively, you can add an Alias for sf in your Apache config.
