Plugins - Daemon Generator
Add to favoritesTo get yourself rolling:
> sudo gem install daemons > ./script/plugin install [optional -x] http://svn.kylemaxwell.com/rails_plugins/daemon_generator/trunk/ > ./script/generate daemon
Then insert your code in the lib/daemons/.rb stub. All pid’s and logs will live in the normal log/ folder. This helps to make things Capistrano friendly.
Individual control script:
> ./lib/daemons/_ctl [start|stop|restart]
App-wide control script (I add this to my capistrano recipe’s after_restart task):
> ./script/daemons [start|stop|restart]
