.SH NAME
.PP
rainbows \- rackup\-like command to launch Rainbows!
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
rainbows [\-c CONFIG_FILE] [\-E RACK_ENV] [\-D] [RACKUP_FILE]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
A rackup(1)\-like command to launch Rack applications using Rainbows!.
It is expected to be started in your application root (APP_ROOT), but
the "working_directory" directive may be used in the CONFIG_FILE.
.PP
While Rainbows! takes a myriad of command\-line options for
compatibility with ruby(1) and rackup(1), it is recommended to stick to
the few command\-line options specified in the SYNOPSIS and use the
CONFIG_FILE as much as possible.
.SH RACKUP FILE
.PP
This defaults to "config.ru" in APP_ROOT.
It should be the same file used by rackup(1) and other Rack launchers,
it uses the \f[I]Rack::Builder\f[] DSL.
.PP
Embedded command\-line options are mostly parsed for compatibility with
rackup(1) but strongly discouraged.
.SH UNICORN OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-c, \-\-config\-file CONFIG_FILE
Path to the Unicorn\-specific config file.
The config file is implemented as a Ruby DSL, so Ruby code may executed.
See the RDoc/ri for the \f[I]Unicorn::Configurator\f[] class for the
full list of directives available from the DSL.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-D, \-\-daemonize
Run daemonized in the background.
The process is detached from the controlling terminal and stdin is
redirected to "/dev/null".
Unlike many common UNIX daemons, we do not chdir to "/" upon
daemonization to allow more control over the startup/upgrade process.
Unless specified in the CONFIG_FILE, stderr and stdout will also be
redirected to "/dev/null".
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-E, \-\-env RACK_ENV
Run under the given RACK_ENV.
See the RACK ENVIRONMENT section for more details.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-l, \-\-listen ADDRESS
Listens on a given ADDRESS.
ADDRESS may be in the form of HOST:PORT or PATH, HOST:PORT is taken to
mean a TCP socket and PATH is meant to be a path to a UNIX domain
socket.
Defaults to "0.0.0.0:8080" (all addresses on TCP port 8080) For
production deployments, specifying the "listen" directive in CONFIG_FILE
is recommended as it allows fine\-tuning of socket options.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-N, \-\-no\-default\-middleware
Disables loading middleware implied by RACK_ENV.
This bypasses the configuration documented in the RACK ENVIRONMENT
section, but still allows RACK_ENV to be used for
application/framework\-specific purposes.
.RS
.RE
.SH RACKUP COMPATIBILITY OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-o, \-\-host HOST
Listen on a TCP socket belonging to HOST, default is "0.0.0.0" (all
addresses).
If specified multiple times on the command\-line, only the
last\-specified value takes effect.
This option only exists for compatibility with the rackup(1) command,
use of "\-l"/"\-\-listen" switch is recommended instead.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-p, \-\-port PORT
Listen on the specified TCP PORT, default is 8080.
If specified multiple times on the command\-line, only the
last\-specified value takes effect.
This option only exists for compatibility with the rackup(1) command,
use of "\-l"/"\-\-listen" switch is recommended instead.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-s, \-\-server SERVER
No\-op, this exists only for compatibility with rackup(1).
.RS
.RE
.SH RUBY OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-e, \-\-eval LINE
Evaluate a LINE of Ruby code.
This evaluation happens immediately as the command\-line is being
parsed.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-d, \-\-debug
Turn on debug mode, the $DEBUG variable is set to true.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-w, \-\-warn
Turn on verbose warnings, the $VERBOSE variable is set to true.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-I, \-\-include PATH
specify
\f[I]L\f[]\f[I]O\f[]\f[I]A\f[]\f[I]D\f[]~\f[I]P\f[]~\f[I]A\f[]\f[I]T\f[]\f[I]H\f[].\f[I]P\f[]\f[I]A\f[]\f[I]T\f[]\f[I]H\f[]\f[I]w\f[]\f[I]i\f[]\f[I]l\f[]\f[I]l\f[]\f[I]b\f[]\f[I]e\f[]\f[I]p\f[]\f[I]r\f[]\f[I]e\f[]\f[I]p\f[]\f[I]e\f[]\f[I]n\f[]\f[I]d\f[]\f[I]e\f[]\f[I]d\f[]\f[I]t\f[]\f[I]o\f[]LOAD_PATH.
The \[aq]:\[aq] character may be used to delimit multiple directories.
This directive may be used more than once.
Modifications to $LOAD_PATH take place immediately and in the order they
were specified on the command\-line.
.RS
.RE
.TP
.B \-r, \-\-require LIBRARY
require a specified LIBRARY before executing the application.
The "require" statement will be executed immediately and in the order
they were specified on the command\-line.
.RS
.RE
.SH SIGNALS
.PP
The following UNIX signals may be sent to the master process:
.IP \[bu] 2
HUP \- reload config file, app, and gracefully restart all workers
.IP \[bu] 2
INT/TERM \- quick shutdown, kills all workers immediately
.IP \[bu] 2
QUIT \- graceful shutdown, waits for workers to finish their current
request before finishing.
.IP \[bu] 2
USR1 \- reopen all logs owned by the master and all workers See
Unicorn::Util.reopen_logs for what is considered a log.
.IP \[bu] 2
USR2 \- reexecute the running binary.
A separate QUIT should be sent to the original process once the child is
verified to be up and running.
.IP \[bu] 2
WINCH \- gracefully stops workers but keep the master running.
This will only work for daemonized processes.
.IP \[bu] 2
TTIN \- increment the number of worker processes by one
.IP \[bu] 2
TTOU \- decrement the number of worker processes by one
.PP
See the SIGNALS (https://yhbt.net/rainbows/SIGNALS.html) document
for full description of all signals used by Rainbows!.
.SH RACK ENVIRONMENT
.PP
Accepted values of RACK_ENV and the middleware they automatically load
(outside of RACKUP_FILE) are exactly as those in rackup(1):
.IP \[bu] 2
development \- loads Rack::CommonLogger, Rack::ShowExceptions, and
Rack::Lint middleware
.IP \[bu] 2
deployment \- loads Rack::CommonLogger middleware
.IP \[bu] 2
none \- loads no middleware at all, relying entirely on RACKUP_FILE
.PP
All unrecognized values for RACK_ENV are assumed to be "none".
Production deployments are strongly encouraged to use "deployment" or
"none" for maximum performance.
.PP
Note the Rack::ContentLength and Rack::Chunked middlewares are also
loaded by "deployment" and "development", but no other values of
RACK_ENV.
If needed, they must be individually specified in the RACKUP_FILE, some
frameworks do not require them.
