Capistrano::Cable

Capistrano::Cable helps to deploy standalone ActionCable server with Puma over systemd. It doesn't use a specific puma.rb for Puma configuration, it relies on given options.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add capistrano-cable

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install capistrano-cable

Usage

# Capfilerequire'capistrano/cable'install_pluginCapistrano::Cable::Systemd

To prevent loading the hooks of the plugin, add false to the load_hooks param.

# Capfileinstall_pluginCapistrano::Cable,load_hooks: false# Default cable tasks without hooks

To make it work with rvm, rbenv and chruby, install the plugin after corresponding library inclusion.

# Capfilerequire'capistrano/rbenv'require'capistrano/cable'install_pluginCapistrano::Cable

Many options are available to customize the cable server configuration. Here are the main ones:

# config/deploy.rb or config/deploy/<stage>.rbset:cable_role,:webset:cable_port,29292# set :cable_limit_nofile, 65536 # optional, to customize if `Errno::EMFILE: Too many open files` happens# set :cable_ssl_certificate# set :cable_ssl_certificate_keyset:cable_rackup_file,'cable/config.ru'set:cable_dir,->{File.join(release_path,"cable")}set:cable_pidfile,->{File.join(shared_path,"tmp","pids","cable.pid")}set:cable_env,->{fetch(:rack_env,fetch(:rails_env,fetch(:stage)))}set:cable_access_log,->{File.join(shared_path,"log","cable.access.log")}set:cable_error_log,->{File.join(shared_path,"log","cable.error.log")}set:cable_phased_restart,->{true}set:cable_service_unit_env_files,->{fetch(:service_unit_env_files,[])}set:cable_service_unit_env_vars,->{fetch(:service_unit_env_vars,[])}set:cable_service_templates_path,fetch(:service_templates_path,"config/deploy/templates")
