Starts foreman when there are multiple Procfiles

alias.sh

#
# zsh function to start Foreman based on whether or not
# you have multiple Procfiles
#
# we are adopting this schema of having environment
# specific Procfiles:
# 
#    config/development.proc
#    config/stage.proc
#    config/production.proc
#
# it searches for a config/ENV.proc file first, and
# if not found, falls back to Procfile
#

function fs {
  env=${RAILS_ENV:-development}

  if [ -f config/$env.proc ]; then
    foreman start -d . -f config/$env.proc
  else
    if [ -f Procfile ]; then
      foreman start
    else
      echo no Procfile, aborting.
    fi
  fi
}

Another good thing about this is that you can keep the production Procfile on your project root folder and it won't be used when you boot it on your dev environment, for instance.

try this

env=${RAILS_ENV:-development}

couldn't resist ;)

function start_foreman_for_env {
  env=${RAILS_ENV:-development}
  [ -f config/$env.proc ] || return 1
  foreman start -d . -f config/$env.proc
}

function start_foreman {
  [ -f Procfile ] || return 1
  foreman start
}

start_foreman_for_env || start_foreman || echo "No Procfile. aborting"

@jeffrydegrande sweet!
