Wheels Deployment

What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides users through the critical process of configuring CFWheels applications for production deployment, addressing essential security hardening and performance optimization concerns to ensure a robust, efficient, and secure live environment.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Production Configuration: Provides clear examples for error handling, caching, and database settings tailored for production.
• Security Checklist: Ensures CSRF protection, debug information suppression, strong passwords, and HTTPS are in place.
• Performance Checklist: Guides on enabling caching, optimizing database indexes, and using eager loading for faster applications.
• Use Case: Before launching your Wheels application, use this skill to systematically review and apply production-ready settings. Ensure all debug information is off, caching is enabled, and essential security measures like CSRF protection are active, preventing common production pitfalls and vulnerabilities.

Quick Start

In config/settings.cfm, for production environment:

<cfif get("environment") == "production"> <cfscript> set(showDebugInformation=false); set(cacheActions=true); set(csrfProtection=true); </cfscript> </cfif>
