This episode demonstrates how to extend deployment to deploy to stage and production. Overall it’s rather simple. All it entails is creating a new task for each stage you want to deploy to with the settings you need changed.

Here’s an example:

task :stage do

role :web, "stage.teachmetocodeacademy.com" # Your HTTP server, Apache/etc

role :app, "stage.teachmetocodeacademy.com" # This may be the same as your `Web` server

role :db, "stage.teachmetocodeacademy.com", :primary => true # This is where Rails migrations will run

set :deploy_to, '/var/www/stage-teachmetocodeacademy/'

set :user, 'deploy'

end

That will allow you to run `cap stage deploy` to deploy to your staging environment.
