This git repository helps you get up and running quickly w/ a Moodle installation on OpenShift.
Create an account at https://www.openshift.com and install the client tools (run 'rhc setup' first)
Create a php-5.4 application (you can call your application whatever you want)
rhc app create moodle php-5.4 postgresql-9.2 --from-code=https://github.com/nuddelaug/openshift-moodle-example.git
That's it, you can now checkout your application at:
http://moodle-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com
Moodle is being setup already during the deployment phase so ensure you'll update the items of interesst:
* fullname of your site

the default administrative credentials equal the Database credentials. Please ensure to create your own administrative User.
GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/deploy: This script is executed with every 'git push'. Feel free to modify this script to learn how to use it to your advantage. By default, this script will create the database tables that this example uses.
If you need to modify the schema, you could create a file
GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/alter.sql and then use
GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/deploy to execute that script (make sure to
back up your application + database w/ 'rhc app snapshot save' first :) )
