ey-script-wrapper

This cookbook is an example that can be used to if you have a script or rake task that needs to be run like a daemon and will enable you to monitor it with monit.

Installation

• Clone this repo, then copy this directory into your custom cookbooks directory.

• Change the variables at the top of recipes/default.rb to match your command name, command to run and app name.

• You may also need to modify the run_in_background variable depending on whether the script runs as a daemon or not.

• Then edit your custom cookbook main/recipes/default.rb and add

  require_recipe "ey-script-wrapper"

Caveats

• This script has been written with the assumption that it will run on a util instance. Change line 23 of default.rb if that is not the case.
