Overview

Implements a simple DSL for configuring a unicorn server.

See https://yhbt.net/unicorn/examples/unicorn.conf.rb and https://yhbt.net/unicorn/examples/unicorn.conf.minimal.rb example configuration files. An example config file for use with nginx is also available at https://yhbt.net/unicorn/examples/nginx.conf

See the link:/TUNING.html document for more information on tuning unicorn.

#after_fork(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

sets after_fork hook to a given block. This block will be called by the worker after forking. The following is an example hook which adds a per-process listener to every worker:

after_fork do |server,worker|

per-process listener ports for debugging/admin:

addr = "127.0.0.1:#{9293 + worker.nr}"

# the negative :tries parameter indicates we will retry forever
# waiting on the existing process to exit with a 5 second :delay
# Existing options for Unicorn::Configurator#listen such as
# :backlog, :rcvbuf, :sndbuf are available here as well.

#after_worker_exit(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

sets after_worker_exit hook to a given block. This block will be called by the master process after a worker exits:

after_worker_exit do |server,worker,status|

status is a Process::Status instance for the exited worker process

unless status.success? server.logger.error("worker process failure: #Unicorn::Configurator.statusstatus.inspect") end end

after_worker_exit is only available in unicorn 5.3.0+

#after_worker_ready(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

sets after_worker_ready hook to a given block. This block will be called by a worker process after it has been fully loaded, directly before it starts responding to requests:

after_worker_ready do |server,worker| server.logger.info("worker #Unicorn::Configurator.workerworker.nr ready, dropping privileges") worker.user('username', 'groupname') end

Do not use Configurator#user if you rely on changing users in the after_worker_ready hook.

#before_exec(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

sets the before_exec hook to a given Proc object. This Proc object will be called by the master process right before exec()-ing the new unicorn binary. This is useful for freeing certain OS resources that you do NOT wish to share with the reexeced child process. There is no corresponding after_exec hook (for obvious reasons).

#check_client_connection(bool) ⇒ Object

When enabled, unicorn will check the client connection by writing the beginning of the HTTP headers before calling the application.

This will prevent calling the application for clients who have disconnected while their connection was queued.

This only affects clients connecting over Unix domain sockets and TCP via loopback (127...*). It is unlikely to detect disconnects if the client is on a remote host (even on a fast LAN).

This option cannot be used in conjunction with :tcp_nopush.

#listen(address, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Adds an address to the existing listener set. May be specified more than once. address may be an Integer port number for a TCP port, an "IP_ADDRESS:PORT" for TCP listeners or a pathname for UNIX domain sockets.

listen 3000 # listen to port 3000 on all TCP interfaces
listen "127.0.0.1:3000"  # listen to port 3000 on the loopback interface
listen "/path/to/.unicorn.sock" # listen on the given Unix domain socket
listen "[::1]:3000" # listen to port 3000 on the IPv6 loopback interface

When using Unix domain sockets, be sure:

  1. the path matches the one used by nginx
  2. uses the same filesystem namespace as the nginx process For systemd users using PrivateTmp=true (for either nginx or unicorn), this means Unix domain sockets must not be placed in /tmp

The following options may be specified (but are generally not needed):

[:backlog => number of clients]

This is the backlog of the listen() syscall.

Some operating systems allow negative values here to specify the
maximum allowable value.  In most cases, this number is only
recommendation and there are other OS-specific tunables and
variables that can affect this number.  See the listen(2)
syscall documentation of your OS for the exact semantics of
this.

If you are running unicorn on multiple machines, lowering this number
can help your load balancer detect when a machine is overloaded
and give requests to a different machine.

Default: 1024

Note: with the Linux kernel, the net.core.somaxconn sysctl defaults
to 128, capping this value to 128.  Raising the sysctl allows a
larger backlog (which may not be desirable with multiple,
load-balanced machines).

[:rcvbuf => bytes, :sndbuf => bytes]

Maximum receive and send buffer sizes (in bytes) of sockets.

These correspond to the SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF settings which
can be set via the setsockopt(2) syscall.  Some kernels
(e.g. Linux 2.4+) have intelligent auto-tuning mechanisms and
there is no need (and it is sometimes detrimental) to specify them.

See the socket API documentation of your operating system
to determine the exact semantics of these settings and
other operating system-specific knobs where they can be
specified.

Defaults: operating system defaults

[:tcp_nodelay => true or false]

Disables Nagle's algorithm on TCP sockets if +true+.

Setting this to +true+ can make streaming responses in Rails 3.1
appear more quickly at the cost of slightly higher bandwidth usage.
The effect of this option is most visible if nginx is not used,
but nginx remains highly recommended with unicorn.

This has no effect on UNIX sockets.

Default: +true+ (Nagle's algorithm disabled) in unicorn
This defaulted to +false+ in unicorn 3.x

[:tcp_nopush => true or false]

Enables/disables TCP_CORK in Linux or TCP_NOPUSH in FreeBSD

This prevents partial TCP frames from being sent out and reduces
wakeups in nginx if it is on a different machine.  Since unicorn
is only designed for applications that send the response body
quickly without keepalive, sockets will always be flushed on close
to prevent delays.

This has no effect on UNIX sockets.

Default: +false+
This defaulted to +true+ in unicorn 3.4 - 3.7

[:ipv6only => true or false]

This option makes IPv6-capable TCP listeners IPv6-only and unable
to receive IPv4 queries on dual-stack systems.  A separate IPv4-only
listener is required if this is true.

Enabling this option for the IPv6-only listener and having a
separate IPv4 listener is recommended if you wish to support IPv6
on the same TCP port.  Otherwise, the value of \env[\"REMOTE_ADDR\"]
will appear as an ugly IPv4-mapped-IPv6 address for IPv4 clients
(e.g ":ffff:10.0.0.1" instead of just "10.0.0.1").

Default: Operating-system dependent

[:reuseport => true or false]

This enables multiple, independently-started unicorn instances to
bind to the same port (as long as all the processes enable this).

This option must be used when unicorn first binds the listen socket.
It cannot be enabled when a socket is inherited via SIGUSR2
(but it will remain on if inherited), and it cannot be enabled
directly via SIGHUP.

Note: there is a chance of connections being dropped if
one of the unicorn instances is stopped while using this.

This is supported on *BSD systems and Linux 3.9 or later.

ref: https://lwn.net/Articles/542629/

Default: false (unset)

[:tries => Integer]

Times to retry binding a socket if it is already in use

A negative number indicates we will retry indefinitely, this is
useful for migrations and upgrades when individual workers
are binding to different ports.

Default: 5

[:delay => seconds]

Seconds to wait between successive +tries+

Default: 0.5 seconds

[:umask => mode]

Sets the file mode creation mask for UNIX sockets.  If specified,
this is usually in octal notation.

Typically UNIX domain sockets are created with more liberal
file permissions than the rest of the application.  By default,
we create UNIX domain sockets to be readable and writable by
all local users to give them the same accessibility as
locally-bound TCP listeners.

This has no effect on TCP listeners.

Default: 0000 (world-read/writable)

[:tcp_defer_accept => Integer]

Defer accept() until data is ready (Linux-only)

For Linux 2.6.32 and later, this is the number of retransmits to
defer an accept() for if no data arrives, but the client will
eventually be accepted after the specified number of retransmits
regardless of whether data is ready.

For Linux before 2.6.32, this is a boolean option, and
accepts are _always_ deferred indefinitely if no data arrives.
This is similar to <code>:accept_filter => "dataready"</code>
under FreeBSD.

Specifying +true+ is synonymous for the default value(s) below,
and +false+ or +nil+ is synonymous for a value of zero.

A value of +1+ is a good optimization for local networks
and trusted clients.  There is no good reason to ever
disable this with a +zero+ value with unicorn.

Default: 1

[:accept_filter => String]

defer accept() until data is ready (FreeBSD-only)

This enables either the "dataready" or (default) "httpready"
accept() filter under FreeBSD.  This is intended as an
optimization to reduce context switches with common GET/HEAD
requests.

There is no good reason to change from the default.

Default: "httpready"

#listeners(addresses) ⇒ Object

sets listeners to the given addresses, replacing or augmenting the current set. This is for the global listener pool shared by all worker processes. For per-worker listeners, see the after_fork example This is for internal API use only, do not use it in your Unicorn config file. Use listen instead.

#logger(obj) ⇒ Object

sets object to the obj Logger-like object. The new Logger-like object must respond to the following methods:

  • debug
  • info
  • warn
  • error
  • fatal The default Logger will log its output to the path specified by stderr_path. If you're running Unicorn daemonized, then you must specify a path to prevent error messages from going to /dev/null.

sets the path for the PID file of the unicorn master process



507
 
# File 'lib/unicorn/configurator.rb', line 507

def pid(path); set_path(:pid, path); end

#preload_app(bool) ⇒ Object

Enabling this preloads an application before forking worker processes. This allows memory savings when using a copy-on-write-friendly GC but can cause bad things to happen when resources like sockets are opened at load time by the master process and shared by multiple children. People enabling this are highly encouraged to look at the before_fork/after_fork hooks to properly close/reopen sockets. Files opened for logging do not have to be reopened as (unbuffered-in-userspace) files opened with the File::APPEND flag are written to atomically on UNIX.

In addition to reloading the unicorn-specific config settings, SIGHUP will reload application code in the working directory/symlink when workers are gracefully restarted when preload_app=false (the default). As reloading the application sometimes requires RubyGems updates, Gem.refresh is always called before the application is loaded (for RubyGems users).

During deployments, care should always be taken to ensure your applications are properly deployed and running. Using preload_app=false (the default) means you must check if your application is responding properly after a deployment. Improperly deployed applications can go into a spawn loop if the application fails to load. While your children are in a spawn loop, it is is possible to fix an application by properly deploying all required code and dependencies. Using preload_app=true means any application load error will cause the master process to exit with an error.

#rewindable_input(bool) ⇒ Object

Toggles making \env["rack.input"] rewindable. Disabling rewindability can improve performance by lowering I/O and memory usage for applications that accept uploads. Keep in mind that the Rack 1.x spec requires \env["rack.input"] to be rewindable, but the Rack 2.x spec does not.

rewindable_input defaults to true for compatibility. Setting it to false may be safe for applications and frameworks developed for Rack 2.x and later.

#stderr_path(path) ⇒ Object

Allow redirecting $stderr to a given path. Unlike doing this from the shell, this allows the unicorn process to know the path its writing to and rotate the file if it is used for logging. The file will be opened with the File::APPEND flag and writes synchronized to the kernel (but not necessarily to disk) so multiple processes can safely append to it.

If you are daemonizing and using the default logger, it is important to specify this as errors will otherwise be lost to /dev/null. Some applications/libraries may also triggering warnings that go to stderr, and they will end up here.

#stdout_path(path) ⇒ Object

Same as stderr_path, except for $stdout. Not many Rack applications write to $stdout, but any that do will have their output written here. It is safe to point this to the same location a stderr_path. Like stderr_path, this defaults to /dev/null when daemonized.

def stdout_path(path)

#timeout(seconds) ⇒ Object

sets the timeout of worker processes to seconds. Workers handling the request/app.call/response cycle taking longer than this time period will be forcibly killed (via SIGKILL). This timeout is enforced by the master process itself and not subject to the scheduling limitations by the worker process. Due the low-complexity, low-overhead implementation, timeouts of less than 3.0 seconds can be considered inaccurate and unsafe.

For running Unicorn behind nginx, it is recommended to set "fail_timeout=0" for in your nginx configuration like this to have nginx always retry backends that may have had workers SIGKILL-ed due to timeouts.

upstream unicorn_backend {
 # for UNIX domain socket setups:
 server unix:/path/to/.unicorn.sock fail_timeout=0;

 # for TCP setups
 server 192.168.0.7:8080 fail_timeout=0;

#user(user, group = nil) ⇒ Object

Runs worker processes as the specified user and group. The master process always stays running as the user who started it. This switch will occur after calling the after_fork hook, and only if the Worker#user method is not called in the after_fork hook group is optional and will not change if unspecified.

Do not use Configurator#user if you rely on changing users in the after_worker_ready hook. Instead, you need to call Worker#user directly in after_worker_ready.

#worker_exec(bool) ⇒ Object

Whether to exec in each worker process after forking. This changes the memory layout of each worker process, which is a security feature designed to defeat possible address space discovery attacks. Note that using worker_exec only makes sense if you are not preloading the application, and will result in higher memory usage.

worker_exec is only available in unicorn 5.3.0+

end

#worker_processes(nr) ⇒ Object

sets the current number of worker_processes to nr. Each worker process will serve exactly one client at a time. You can increment or decrement this value at runtime by sending SIGTTIN or SIGTTOU respectively to the master process without reloading the rest of your Unicorn configuration. See the SIGNALS document for more information.

end

#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.
