How to restart unicorn and nginx after deployment? - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am pretty new to these new tools - unicorn and nginx - and I'd like to ask you, how to restart them after development. So far, I have this setup:
unicorn_ini.sh
set -e
# Feel free to change any of the following variables for your app:
TIMEOUT=${TIMEOUT-60}
APP_ROOT=/home/deployer/apps/project/current
PID=$APP_ROOT/tmp/pids/unicorn.pid
CMD="cd $APP_ROOT; bundle exec unicorn -D -c $APP_ROOT/config/unicorn.rb -E production"
AS_USER=deployer
set -u
OLD_PIN="$PID.oldbin"
sig () {
test -s "$PID" && kill -$1 `cat $PID`
}
oldsig () {
test -s $OLD_PIN && kill -$1 `cat $OLD_PIN`
}
run () {
if [ "$(id -un)" = "$AS_USER" ]; then
eval $1
else
su -c "$1" - $AS_USER
fi
}
case "$1" in
start)
sig 0 && echo >&2 "Already running" && exit 0
run "$CMD"
;;
stop)
sig QUIT && exit 0
echo >&2 "Not running"
;;
force-stop)
sig TERM && exit 0
echo >&2 "Not running"
;;
restart|reload)
sig HUP && echo reloaded OK && exit 0
echo >&2 "Couldn't reload, starting '$CMD' instead"
run "$CMD"
;;
upgrade)
if sig USR2 && sleep 2 && sig 0 && oldsig QUIT
then
n=$TIMEOUT
while test -s $OLD_PIN && test $n -ge 0
do
printf '.' && sleep 1 && n=$(( $n - 1 ))
done
echo
if test $n -lt 0 && test -s $OLD_PIN
then
echo >&2 "$OLD_PIN still exists after $TIMEOUT seconds"
exit 1
fi
exit 0
fi
echo >&2 "Couldn't upgrade, starting '$CMD' instead"
run "$CMD"
;;
reopen-logs)
sig USR1
;;
*)
echo >&2 "Usage: $0 <start|stop|restart|upgrade|force-stop|reopen-logs>"
exit 1
;;
esac
unicorn.rb
root = "/home/deployer/apps/project/current"
working_directory root
pid "#{root}/tmp/pids/unicorn.pid"
stderr_path "#{root}/log/unicorn.log"
stdout_path "#{root}/log/unicorn.log"
listen "/tmp/unicorn.project.sock"
worker_processes 4
timeout 30
# Force the bundler gemfile environment variable to
# reference the capistrano "current" symlink
before_exec do |_|
ENV["BUNDLE_GEMFILE"] = File.join(root, 'Gemfile')
end
deploy.rb
lock '3.2.1'
set :application, 'project'
set :scm, :git
set :repo_url, 'git#bitbucket.org:me/project.git'
set :pty, true
set :deploy_to, "/home/deployer/apps/project"
set :keep_releases, 5
namespace :deploy do
desc 'Restart application'
task :restart do
on roles(:app), in: :sequence, wait: 5 do
# Your restart mechanism here, for example:
# execute :touch, release_path.join('tmp/restart.txt')
end
end
after :publishing, :restart
after :restart, :clear_cache do
on roles(:web), in: :groups, limit: 3, wait: 10 do
# Here we can do anything such as:
# within release_path do
# execute :rake, 'cache:clear'
# end
end
end
end
This is the current setup. Will be restarted after successful deployment nginx and unicorn, so I'd see the new code I deployed? Also, will the application be bundled?
Thank you, and sorry once again - I ma doing this the first time

You will consider use something like https://github.com/tablexi/capistrano3-unicorn, it allow you to have zero down time deployment, restart your unicorns, with almost 0 setup needed.
