This is step by step instructions on how to run your app locally in the production environment.

1. Add gem 'rails_12factor' to your Gemfile. This will add error logging to the command line and the ability for your app to serve static assets.
2. run bundle
3. run bundle exec rake secret and copy the output
4. in application.yml set the secret_key to match what secret.yml is expecting (<%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %>)
5. in database.yml under production: delete username and password
6. run rake assets:precompile - This will create a folder public/assets that contains all of your assets.
7. run RAILS_ENV=productions rake db:create db:migrate db:seed or db:setup
8. fire up the server with http://localhost:3000

• Remember to clobber your assets (rake assets:clobber) and re-precompile (rake assets:precompile) if you make changes to your assets.
