Rails如何将代码上传到生产服务器

Question

I managed to create my first ROR application, called myapp, locally and I also have created another ROR application on my webfaction server with the same name myapp. My question is every time I run commands "rails generate model" or "rails generate controller", how can I synchronise my local environment with my webfaction server. There seem to be lots of files generated when you run rails commands. Does it mean I have to upload the whole application directory every time I generate something? Kindly suggest with your experience, I'm very new to Rails.

If I were you I would go for Heroku first. It's free and easy and along the way you will learn some about hosting Rails apps.

Getting started with Heroku is a good place to go first https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/quickstart

Heroku is indeed the easy way out, if you are looking into more "metal" deployment - use Capistrano
