== DESCRIPTION:

Unicorn app server support for Vlad. Adds support for vlad:start_app and

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

* Unicorn support for vlad:start_app and vlad:stop_app tasks.

    # lib/tasks/vlad.rake
    begin
      require 'vlad'
      Vlad.load(:app => :unicorn)
    rescue LoadError
    end

or for legacy Rails (1.2.x thru 2.2.x) apps

    # lib/tasks/vlad.rake
    begin
      require 'vlad'
      Vlad.load(:app => :unicorn_rails)

* Vlad[https://rubyhitsquad.com/Vlad_the_Deployer.html]

* Unicorn[https://unicorn.bogomips.org/]

== INSTALL:

    $ sudo gem install vlad-unicorn

== VARIABLES:

unicorn_command::       Defaults to 'unicorn' when using
                        <tt>:app => :unicorn</tt>, and 'unicorn_rails' with
                        <tt>:app => :unicorn_rails.</tt>
unicorn_config::        The location of the Unicorn config file. Defaults to
                        "#{current_path}/config/unicorn.rb".
unicorn_pid::           The location of the Unicorn pid file. Must be the same
                        as in unicorn.rb file. Currently needed for the
                        +stop_app+ task, but hopefully won't be necessary in a
                        future version.
unicorn_rackup::        The location of the rackup file unicorn should load.
                        Defaults to "#{current_path}/config.ru". Not set nor
                        used for +unicorn_rails+.
unicorn_use_sudo::      Whether to use sudo to run the 'unicorn' command on
                        the remote host. Probably necessary if you specify a
                        user and group in unicorn.rb.
