Capistrano Apache

Official Capistrano extension for Apache tasks. Supports httpd and apache2 (see Configuration below) This replaces 1.0.0 of https://rubygems.org/gems/capistrano-apache. It differs greatly in configuration.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano', '~> 3.2'
gem 'capistrano-apache'

Require one of the above 'Environments Supported' in your Capfile:

require 'capistrano/apache/systemd'

capistrano/apache comes with 5 tasks:

• apache:reload
• apache:force_reload
• apache:restart
• apache:stop

You can execute the task on command line:

cap production apache:reload

And configure it on your deploy.rb file:

namespace :deploy do
  after :finishing, 'apache:reload'
  after :rollback, 'apache:reload'
end

Configurable options shown here are also the defaults:

set :apache_with_sudo, true
set :apache_roles, :web
set :apache_service_name, 'httpd' # Specify apache2 here if needed
set :systemctl_location, '/bin/systemctl' # May already exist if you use other plugins. Be sure to check your config/deploy/{env} file
