Elocal Capistrano

A bunch of handy Capistrano tasks.

cap chef

Runs chef-client on all servers.

cap delayed_job:upstart:start
cap delayed_job:upstart:restart
cap delayed_job:upstart:stop

Start/stop/restart a delayed job process using upstart. You can change the name of the task with the delayed_job_application_name variable.

set(:delayed_job_application_name, 'foobar')

By default the #{application}_delayed_job is used.

Generally, this will be hooked in like:

%w(start stop restart).each do |st|
  after "deploy:#{st}", "delayed_job:upstart:#{st}"
end

cap deploy:symlink_shared_configuration

This will find files in the directory #{deploy_to}/shared/config and link them in to the release path using the basic logic.

ln -nfs #{deploy_to}/shared/config/$f #{release_path}/config/$f

Generally, this will be hooked in with an after callback.

after "bundle:install", "deploy:symlink_shared_configuration"

cap god:start
cap god:restart
cap god:stop

Start/stop/restart a god process using. You can change the name of the task with the god_application_name variable.

  after "deploy:#{st}", "god:#{st}"
end

cap maintenance:begin
cap maintenance:end

Creates a HTML page at public/system/503.html. We rely on Nginx to check for that file and display it for all requests if present.

cap puma:upstart:start

cap puma:upstart:stop

Start/stop/restart a puma process using upstart. You can change the name of the task with the puma_application_name variable.
