Deploying with Dokku and in need to run some basic setup tasks such as copying config/database.yml.example to config/database.yml in Rails? It’s possible with Dokku 0.5.0 and app.json file.
Example of the above as app.json file:
{
"scripts": {
"dokku": {
"predeploy": "cp /app/config/database.yml.example /app/config/database.yml"
}
}
}
