What is Speedy and why use Speedy?
Speedy is a utility for Phusion Passenger / ModRails, specifically develop to automate the process of creating virtual host and deployments in development environment. Even though Passenger makes a revolutionized Rails deployment under Apache server, still developers need to create virtual hosts manually for each and every apps they develop. Since other platform (like Mac) has some platform specific utilities to automate this process still we couldn’t find any good utility for Linux platform.
Speedy develop for both Linux and Mac platform as a Ruby Gem allows developers to rapidly deploy the applications with in a single command. In addition to that Speedy helps to perform clean Apache – Passenger configuration without touching the server configurations files.
