Registration agent for Difio, preconfigured for dotCloud / Ruby applications.

It compiles a list of installed packages and sends it to http://www.dif.io.

Installing on your dotCloud Ruby application

• Create an account at http://www.dif.io

• Create your Ruby application in dotCloud and push it

• Configure your Difio userID. You can get it from https://difio-otb.rhcloud.com/profiles/mine/

  dotcloud var set <app name> DIFIO_USER_ID=UserID
  

• Generate a unique identifier for this application and save the value as environmental variable.

  dotcloud var set <app name> DIFIO_UUID=`uuidgen`
  

• Add a dependency in your application's Gemfile

  ...
  gem 'difio-dotcloud-ruby'
  ...
  

• Enable the registration script in your postinstall hook. Note: If you are using an "approot" your postinstall script should be in the directory pointed by the “approot” directive of your dotcloud.yml. For more information about postinstall turn to http://docs.dotcloud.com/guides/postinstall/.

If a file named postinstall doesn't already exist, create it and add the following:

    #!/bin/sh
    cd /home/dotcloud/code
    bundle exec difio-dotcloud

• Make postinstall executable

  chmod a+x postinstall
  

• Commit your changes (if using git):

  git add .
  git commit -m "enable Difio registration"
  

• Then push your application to dotCloud

  dotcloud push <app name>
  

• If everything goes well you should see something like:

  19:55:10 [www.0] Running postinstall script...
  19:55:13 [www.0] response:200
  19:55:13 [www.0] Difio: Success, registered/updated application with uuid 7676711b-9d3b-4ef5-81e2-cf0287632a29
