naps62 / capistrano3-monit Goto Github PK

I guess the ReadMe line stating:

gem 'capistrano3-monit', github: 'naps62/capistrano3-monit'

should be changed to :

gem 'capistrano-monit'

Otherwise the Capful line

require 'capistrano/monit'

will raise an error during bundle install :

$ cap staging setup
(Backtrace restricted to imported tasks)
cap aborted!
LoadError: cannot load such file -- capistrano/monit

Nothing happens when I run cap staging monit:status.
I opened capistrano console (bundle exec cap staging console) and entered sudo monit status, it asked for a password.

In the current version of monit, if you change the config you need to reload it.
The command restart doesn't reload the config.

I have a branch with the change needed, but I cannot push it.

  desc 'Reload config'
  task :reload do
    sudo_if_needed :execute, :monit, :reload
  end

We love to use monit and this gem to manage our application lifecycle, but we moved to unicorn and it's signal-based restart mechanism rigt now, so we do not use monit:restart task anymore at deploy:restart stage. However, capistrano3-monit does not allow us to deactivate its deploy:restart hook and our application keeps restarting via monit even if signal-based restart sould be happen.

Even if we made a workaround about this (Rake::Task['deploy:restart'].clear_actions) we would really appreciate a way to disable this hook.

Any chance a new release can be push to rubygems? We're seeing the double execute issue that was fixed over a year ago.
