How to use rails load paths, app, and lib directories.

Response to a dude who asked about heaven. https://github.com/holman/feedback/issues/422

@holman got a request about our deployment system, heaven

I know it's not a high priority, but has there been any activity on open-sourcing the core Heaven gem?

There is. I've been working on extracting the non-GitHub specific parts into two gems. This first is a CLI portion called hades. The second is an HTTP API portion called heaven.

When you open source something previously used as in internal tool like Heaven, Hubot, Boxen, etc., how do you manage and hook in the parts that need to stay internal?

Normally I focus around four questions:

How to use

cd /etc/init.d
curl $RAW_GIST_URL -o minecraft
chmod a+x minecraft

Make sure to edit the script and change the configuration variables at the top to match your system.
