Method: Unicorn::Configurator#working_directory

Defined in:
lib/unicorn/configurator.rb

#working_directory(path) ⇒ Object

sets the working directory for Unicorn. This ensures SIGUSR2 will start a new instance of Unicorn in this directory. This may be a symlink, a common scenario for Capistrano users. Unlike all other Unicorn configuration directives, this binds immediately for error checking and cannot be undone by unsetting it in the configuration file and reloading.
