Capistrano Bundler: How to make it verbose?

Question

Is it possible to let Capistrano print the output of bundler, when running the bundle command?

On the local machine it usually prints "using rails 4.2.1" etc. and I would love to have the same when deploying to my live server.

Answer 1

This is because Capistrano uses Bundler with the options --deployment --quiet by default. So the --quiet suppresses the desired output.

Add the following line to the production configuration of Capistrano:

set :bundle_flags, '--deployment'
