Nginx + Unicorn for Rails on Rackhub

Nginx + Unicorn for Rails on Rackhub

Description:

This script enables you to launch your Rails application in production environment (port:80) with Nginx and Unicorn.

Installation:

Please make sure that your Gemfile in your rails application includes unicorn.

gem 'unicorn'

Next, check whether you already set $RAILS_ROOT as follows.

echo $RAILS_ROOT

If you do not set it yet, please do so like below.

export RAILS_ROOT=$HOME/sample_app

Please make sure to replace sample_app to your actual Rails project path.

Then, just execute the following command.

curl -s -L https://gist.github.com/raw/2129714/install.sh | bash

Now you may successfully check your Rails application in your browser.

sorry for replying so late. I missed it somehow. For you answer: Just keep adding more server blocks with different server_name and port, if required.
You can have multiple apps using single ip and port using nginx named based hosting.

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name first.myapp.com; # all accept
    access_log /var/log/nginx/first.access.log default_log;

    location ~ ^/assets/ {
        root RAILS_ROOT_FIRST/public;
        gzip_static on; # to serve pre-gzipped version
        expires 1y;
        add_header Cache-Control public;
        add_header ETag "";
        break;
    }

    location / {
        proxy_set_header HOST $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $http_x_forwarded_proto;
        proxy_pass http://backend1;
        proxy_redirect off;
    }
}
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name second.myapp.com; # all accept
    access_log /var/log/nginx/second.access.log default_log;

    location ~ ^/assets/ {
        root RAILS_ROOT_SECOND/public;
        gzip_static on; # to serve pre-gzipped version
        expires 1y;
        add_header Cache-Control public;
        add_header ETag "";
        break;
    }

    location / {
        proxy_set_header HOST $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $http_x_forwarded_proto;
        proxy_pass http://backend2;
        proxy_redirect off;
    }
}
