Automatically precompile assets before pushing to Heroku

Question

Is it possible to automatically precompile my assets in a Rails app before pushing out to Heroku? I always forget to do it, so it would be nice if when I typed git push he

Answer 1

You could always alias heroku or something similar to rake assets:precompile ; git commit add . ; git commit -a -m "Precompile." ; git push heroku master in your bash profile ie

#in ~/.bash_profile 
alias precompile_push='rake assets:precompile ; git commit add . ; git commit -a -m "Precompile." ; git push heroku master'
