Some silly examples of some of the things you can do with God.

Rails

To run the rails examples, you must first create the db (mysql) and migrate:

  
    cd rails
    cat config/database.yml #so you know what you're creating
    rake db:create:all
    rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
  

Then fire up a local copy of the app, monitored with god:

  
    god -c config/god/development.god
  

config/deploy.rb shows an example Capistrano config that controls the rails
app using config/god/app.god.
