Overview

This is the process manager of Unicorn. This manages worker processes which in turn handle the I/O and application process. Listener sockets are started in the master process and shared with forked worker children.

Users do not need to know the internals of this class, but reading the source is education for programmers wishing to learn how unicorn works. See Unicorn::Configurator for information on how to configure unicorn.

START_CTX =

:startdoc: We populate this at startup so we can figure out how to reexecute and upgrade the currently running instance of Unicorn This Hash is considered a stable interface and changing its contents will allow you to switch between different installations of Unicorn or even different installations of the same applications without downtime. Keys of this constant Hash are described as follows:

  • 0 - the path to the unicorn/unicorn_rails executable

  • :argv - a deep copy of the ARGV array the executable originally saw

  • :cwd - the working directory of the application, this is where

you originally started Unicorn.

To change your unicorn executable to a different path without downtime, you can set the following in your Unicorn config file, HUP and then continue with the traditional USR2 + QUIT upgrade steps:

Unicorn::HttpServer::START_CTX[0] = "/home/bofh/2.2.0/bin/unicorn"

{
  :argv => ARGV.map(&:dup),
  0 => $0.dup,
}

Constructor Details

#initialize(app, options = {}) ⇒ HttpServer

Creates a working server on host:port (strange things happen if port isn’t a Number). Use HttpServer::run to start the server and HttpServer.run.join to join the thread that’s processing incoming requests on the socket.

  # it to wake up the master from IO.select in exactly the same manner
  # djb describes in http://cr.yp.to/docs/selfpipe.html

  # unicorn was started twice by mistake.  Even though our #pid= method
  # checks for stale/existing pid files, race conditions are still
  # possible (and difficult/non-portable to avoid) and can be likely
  # to clobber the pid if the second start was in quick succession
  # after the first, so we rely on the listener binding to fail in
  # that case.  Some tests (in and outside of this source tree) and
  # monitoring tools may also rely on pid files existing before we

monitors children and receives signals forever (or until a termination signal is sent). This handles signals one-at-a-time time and we’ll happily drop signals in case somebody is signalling us too often.

#listen(address, opt = {}.merge(listener_opts[address] || {})) ⇒ Object

add a given address to the listeners set, idempotently Allows workers to add a private, per-process listener via the after_fork hook. Very useful for debugging and testing. :tries may be specified as an option for the number of times to retry, and :delay may be specified as the time in seconds to delay between retries. A negative value for :tries indicates the listen will be retried indefinitely, this is useful when workers belonging to different masters are spawned during a transparent upgrade.
