Alright, just for fun I’m kicking off a new blog series. I’m going to publish a new “Deploy a Framework Friday” each week for about the next, well, bunch of weeks. There are a TON of frameworks that are available on PaaS Technologies.
This first entry I’m going to implement a simple Sinatra app with Ruby. Nothing fancy, simply a hello world and the respective deployment to a Cloud Foundry PaaS.
First, let’s whip out the super complex code (right, this isn’t complex, I just like sarcasm). The hello.rb file I created.
[sourcecode language=”ruby”]
require ‘sinatra’
get ‘/’ do
"Hello World!"
end
get ‘/route’ do
"Hello from a route URI!"
end
[/sourcecode]
Next add a Gemfile & respective Gemfile.lock as such.
Gemfile
[sourcecode language=”ruby”]
source "http://rubygems.org"
gem ‘sinatra’
[/sourcecode]
Gemfile.lock
[sourcecode language=”ruby”]
GEM
remote: http://rubygems.org/
specs:
rack (1.4.1)
rack-protection (1.2.0)
rack
sinatra (1.3.2)
rack (~> 1.3, >= 1.3.6)
rack-protection (~> 1.2)
tilt (~> 1.3, >= 1.3.3)
tilt (1.3.3)
PLATFORMS
ruby
DEPENDENCIES
sinatra
[/sourcecode]
Then deploy using the Cloud Foundry VMC.
[sourcecode language=”bash”]
vmc push
[/sourcecode]
If you’ve forgotten, be sure to target and login first.
[sourcecode language=”bash”]
vmc target api.ironfoundry.me
vmc login
[/sourcecode]
That does it. Yeah, not a whole lot to get started working on a Sinatra Project. For more information on Sinatra check out the main web presence here http://www.sinatrarb.com/.

For the code sample, check out the working “paasIt” code repo on Github.
Next week I’ll do a baseline ASP.NET MVC 4 Application and get it deployed.
