The spawn-fcgi command is included with the lighttpd web server, but can be used with both Apache and lighttpd (and any other web server supporting externally managed FCGI processes). You decide a starting port (default is 8000) and the number of FCGI process instances you'd like to run. So if you pick 9100 and 3 instances, you'll start processes on 9100, 9101, and 9102. By setting the repeat option, you get a protection loop, which will attempt to restart any FCGI processes that might have been exited or outright crashed. Examples: spawner # starts instances on 8000, 8001, and 8002 spawner -p 9100 -i 10 # starts 10 instances counting from 9100 to 9109 spawner -p 9100 -r 5 # starts 3 instances counting from 9100 to 9102 and attempts start them every 5 seconds EOF opts.on(" Options:") opts.on("-p", "--port=number", Integer, "Starting port number (default: #{OPTIONS[:port]})") { |OPTIONS[:port]| } opts.on("-i", "--instances=number", Integer, "Number of instances (default: #{OPTIONS[:instances]})") { |OPTIONS[:instances]| } opts.on("-r", "--repeat=seconds", Integer, "Repeat spawn attempts every n seconds (default: off)") { |OPTIONS[:repeat]| } opts.on("-e", "--environment=name", String, "test|development|production (default: #{OPTIONS[:environment]})") { |OPTIONS[:environment]| } opts.on("-s", "--spawner=path", String, "default: #{OPTIONS[:spawner]}") { |OPTIONS[:spawner]| } opts.on("-d", "--dispatcher=path", String, "default: #{OPTIONS[:dispatcher]}") { |dispatcher| OPTIONS[:dispatcher] = File.expand_path(dispatcher) } opts.separator "" opts.on("-h", "--help", "Show this help message.") { puts opts; exit } opts.parse! end ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = OPTIONS[:environment] if OPTIONS[:repeat] daemonize trap("TERM") { exit } loop do spawn_all sleep(OPTIONS[:repeat]) end else spawn_all end
