[LRUG] Gem to start required services

[Mr Jaba]

Hi Rory,

I think you're after something like Foreman
https://github.com/ddollar/foreman
http://railscasts.com/episodes/281-foreman

This sounds like it'd do the trick and it can export to upstart scripts
when you want to move to production.

Hope that helps

Tom
