capistrano-unicorn with capistrano 3.x

[sepastian]

Hi, I have rewritten capistrano-unicorn to work with capistrano 3.x, check out sepastian-capistrano-unicorn.

This is still in an early stage and not at all tested; but I can use it to deploy my projects with capistrano 3.x. Some changes I made:

• The run command is no longer available; instead, execute (SSHKit) must be used.

  One issue with that was multiline (here-doc) scripts, as used in capistrano-unicorn. Commands will be sanitized by SSHKit before execution. During sanitization, all line breaks will be replaced with semicolons. This, in turn, renders some shell scripts invalid. To overcome this, I did script.split.join(' ').

• Capistrano 3.x defines a special tasks for loading default settings, namely load:defaults. See also Add a task to load defaults capistrano/capistrano#605. So the contents of config.rb is now in capistrano/tasks/unicorn.cap, inside the load:defaults task.

• In Capistrano 3.x, set does no longer accept a block. Instead, a Proc must be specified. So set :abc { ... } becomes set :abc, Proc.new{ ... }.

• defer no longer exists in Capistrano 3.x.

Could you please have a look at this? What are you plans for supporting capistrano 3.x? Thoughts? How about creating a new branch for capistrano 3.x support?

Hey @sepastian, what you did is wonderful, you are in the perfect timing for me.
Except that it does not work (yet) here but maybe my config is wrong somewhere

Hi @jloosfelt, thanks for trying. Obviously, this is still at a very early stage and I am still quite new to Capistrano myself. I think I forgot to update the syntax for on roles in some places, just fixed that. Could you try again?

See sepastian@ef20bc2

still not working, I've updated my gist

@sepastian I'm attempting to use your forked version but I've run into an issue. I was going to submit an issue for it but it appears that you don't have issues turned on for your project.

[sepastian]

Please try again, @kyledecot, issues should be turned on now.

[inbeom]

@jloosfelt @kyledecot, how about using my fork? I've run it without errors on my environment.

@inbeom version worked for me as well. But not @sepastian T.T

[umhan35]

I used @inbeom fork. I have the following code to make it work: set :unicorn_rack_env, :production in deploy/production.rb and set :unicorn_bin, 'unicorn_rails' in deploy.rb

Here is the code in Gemfil dev group: gem 'capistrano-unicorn', require: false, github: 'inbeom/capistrano-unicorn', branch: 'capistrano3'

I can't seem to have capistrano see the tasks after I did what @umhan35 above:

tcc@venuespot-beta:~/ba$ bundle exec cap -T

Any suggestions?

[shardnit]

@tommytcchan do you have following in your project's Capfile?

require 'capistrano/unicorn'

[umhan35]

@tommytcchan also the after deploy:restart hook

[tomafc330]

@nsa310 Thanks you're right.. I had require 'capistrano-unicorn instead of require capistrano/unicorn from the previous version. @umhan35 thanks

[tomafc330]

Just an FYI, it seems that both unicorn_env and unicorn_rack_env vars have to be set if it's deploying to something other than production.

unicorn_env        beta
unicorn_rack_env   beta

I managed to make cap -T show the tasks with

Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano-unicorn', require: false, github: 'inbeom/capistrano-unicorn', branch: 'capistrano3'

Capfile:

require 'capistrano/unicorn'

If I use this repository and require 'capistrano-unicorn' I get

$ bundle exec cap -T 
cap aborted!
undefined method `instance' for Capistrano::Configuration:Class
~/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0@xyz/gems/capistrano-unicorn-0.1.10/lib/capistrano-unicorn/capistrano_integration.rb:224:in `<top (required)>'
~/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0@xyz/gems/capistrano-unicorn-0.1.10/lib/capistrano-unicorn.rb:2:in `require'
~/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0@xyz/gems/capistrano-unicorn-0.1.10/lib/capistrano-unicorn.rb:2:in `<top (required)>'
...

By the way, @inbeom please fix the README of the capistrano3 branch because it says

And load it into your deployment script config/deploy.rb:
require 'capistrano-unicorn'

Wrong file and wrong require.
I write it here because this is where google seems to direct people looking for the gem and it might be more useful here than there.

[asanger]

Interesting. Using the forked repo from above, I run into an error saying that it can't load 'capistrano-unicorn'. Is this now working properly for you?
