unicorn-soft-timeout

This gem adds support for soft timeout in Unicorn configurations, by default requests which are taking longer than configured timeout are SIGKILL-ed.

In some cases we need to intercept requests which will reach timeout to display a custom content instead of the error page. This extension will raise Timeout::Error when reaching the soft timeout and will restart the worker sending a SIGQUIT signal to it.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'unicorn-soft-timeout'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install unicorn-soft-timeout

Edit your config.ru file and load the Unicorn::SoftTimeout middleware:

# config.ru
require 'unicorn/soft_timeout'

# Specify your soft timeout (default 12 seconds), it should
# be a lower value than **timeout** specified in your unicorn config.
use Unicorn::SoftTimeout, 10
