Remote commands with SSH Kit

Capistrano executes commands on remote servers using SSHKit.

An example setting a working directory, user and environment variable:

on roles(:app), in: :sequence, wait: 5 do
  within "/opt/sites/example.com" do
    # commands in this block execute in the
    # directory: /opt/sites/example.com
    as :deploy do
      # commands in this block execute as the "deploy" user.
      with rails_env: :production do
        # commands in this block execute with the environment
        # variable RAILS_ENV=production
        rake   "assets:precompile"
        runner "S3::Sync.notify"
      end
    end
  end
end
