README and instructions #13
Description
I've been researching how to implement Capistrano into my wordpress workflow and feel like there is a lot of potential in the WP-stack script templates. Currently its very unclear what files you need to modify and what the effect of modifications are. I would like to write some concrete explanation of what your server/local system structure should be and a step-by-step guide as to how to get WP-Stack up and running.
Apart from the public README, is there any existing documentation I can work off of?
I talked with Robbie for a bit yesterday and I understood a bit of how Knewton structures their servers. Its very helpful to understand the structure in which WP-Stack is most useful. I've attached the flowchart I made.
Structure
Servers
It is meant to be read from left to right. On the left is your own machine. The "Local" is a virtual server running off Vagrant. The "Repo" is working on Github. The "Admin Box" is the remote controller for managing the "Staging" and "Production" servers.
Databases
The Databases themselves are backedup on Vaultpress. Whenever there is local work done, the database is pulled from the remote servers. When changes need to be made to the databases, the processes made locally and replayed on the remote servers.
