mina-sidekiq is a gem that adds tasks to aid in the deployment of Sidekiq using Mina.

Starting with 1.0.0 this gem requires Mina 1.0! (thanks @devvmh)

Support sidekiq > 6.0, reference project capistrano-sidekiq, github: https://github.com/seuros/capistrano-sidekiq

gem install mina-sidekiq

require 'mina_sidekiq/tasks'
#...

task :setup do
  # sidekiq needs a place to store its pid file and log file
  command %(mkdir -p "#{fetch(:deploy_to)}/shared/pids/")
  command %(mkdir -p "#{fetch(:deploy_to)}/shared/log/")
end

task :deploy do
  deploy do
    # stop accepting new workers
    invoke :'git:clone'
    invoke :'sidekiq:quiet'
    invoke :'deploy:link_shared_paths'
    ...

    on :launch do
      ...
      invoke :'sidekiq:restart'
    end
  end
end

Set init system to systemd in the mina deploy config:

  set :init_system, :systemd

Enable lingering for systemd user account

  loginctl enable-linger USERACCOUNT

Install systemd.service template file and enable the service with:

  bundle exec mina sidekiq:install

Default name for the service file is sidekiq-env.service. This can be changed as needed, for example:

  set :service_unit_name, "sidekiq-#{fetch(:rails_env)}.service"

Default systemctl command is systemctl --user, this can be changed, for example:

  set :systemctl_command, 'systemctl --user'

For non privileged user (non sudo) usage set up path for systemctl unit file:

  set :service_unit_path, '/home/www/.config/systemd/user'

where www is the username. For details see systemctl doc page

To use systemctl integration with rbenv bundler path must be setted:

  set :bundler_path, '/home/www/.rbenv/shims/bundler'

To get bundler path use:

  which bundler

Set init system to upstart in the cap deploy config:

  set :init_system, :upstart

Set upstart service name:

  set :upstart_service_name, 'sidekiq'

• sidekiq:stop
• sidekiq:start
• sidekiq:restart
• sidekiq:quiet
• sidekiq:log

sidekiq > 6.0

• sidekiq:install
• sidekiq:uninstall

The test requires a local running ssh server with the ssh keys of the current user added to its ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. In OS X, this is "Remote Login" under the Sharing pref pane. You will also need a working rvm installation.

To run the full blown test suite use:

bundle exec rake test

For faster release cycle use

cd test_env
bundle exec mina deploy --verbose
