Keybase proof

I hereby claim:

• I am erichs on github.
• I am erichs (https://keybase.io/erichs) on keybase.
• I have a public key whose fingerprint is 688D B17A 9CCD EA27 8C9E F6A4 91CC 9E0A 4A75 C982

To claim this, I am signing this object:

Using Unicorn with Upstart

This configuration works with Upstart on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

The reason why it needs to be done this way (i.e. with the pre-start and post-stop stanzas), is because Upstart is unable to track whever Unicorn master process re-execs itself on hot deploys. One can use it without hot-deploys and run Unicorn in foreground also, it then only needs one exec stanza.

This presumes you are not using RVM, so no voodoo dances.
