Ubuntu Manpage: puma - fast, concurrent web server for ruby and rack

NAME

       puma - fast, concurrent web server for ruby and rack

USAGE

       puma [options...] [rackup file]

       puma [-h | --help | -V | --version]

OPTIONS

The following options are available:

-b, --bind URI
URI to bind to (tcp://, unix://, ssl://).

-C, --config PATH
Load given path as a config file.

--control URL
DEPRECATED alias for --control-url.

--control-token TOKEN
The TOKEN to use as authentication for the control server.

--control-url URL
The bind URL to use for the control server and app. Use auto to use a temp unix
server. This requires to use a --control-token, which needs to be given with every
request to the control server (token=foo).

-d, --daemon
Demonize the server into the background.

--debug
Show low level debugging information.

--dir DIR
Change to given directory before starting.

-e, --environment ENVIRONMENT
The environment to run the Rack app on. Default development.

-I, --include PATH
Specify $LOAD_PATH directories.

-p, --port PORT
Define the TCP port to bind to. Use -b for more advanced options.

--pidfile PATH
Use the given path as PID file.

--preload
Preload the application. This loads all the application code prior to forking.
Preloading reduces total memory usage of an application and is only available in
cluster mode.

--prune-bundler
Prune out the bundler env if possible.

-q, --quiet
Do not log requests internally. Default: true.

-v, --log-requests
Log requests as they occur.

-R, --restart-cmd CMD
The puma command to run during a hot restart. Default: inferred.

-S, --state PATH
Where to store the state details.

-t, --threads INT
Min:max threads to use. Puma will automatically scale the number of threads, from
the minimum until it caps out at the maximum, based on how much traffic is present.
Default: 0:16.

--tcp-mode
Run the app in raw TCP mode instead of HTTP mode.

--early-hints
Enable early hints support.

-w, --workers COUNT
Activate cluster mode and define number of worker processes to create. In this mode
workers are forked from a master process. Each child process still has its own
thread pool and the -t setting is per worker.

--tag NAME
Additional text to display in process listing.

--redirect-stdout FILE
Redirect STDOUT to a specific file.

--redirect-stderr FILE
Redirect STDERR to a specific file.

--[no-]redirect-append
Append to redirected files.

-h, --help
Show help.

-V, --version
Print the version information.

EXAMPLES

       The following examples show how to bind TCP or sockets:

       Bind Puma to a socket with the -b (or --bind) flag:
              puma -b tcp://127.0.0.1:9292

       To use a UNIX Socket instead of TCP:
              puma -b unix:///var/run/puma.sock

       To change the permissions of the UNIX socket, add a umask parameter:
              puma -b 'unix:///var/run/puma.sock?umask=0111'

       In need of a bit of security use SSL sockets:
              puma -b 'ssl://127.0.0.1:9292?key=path_to_key&cert=path_to_cert'

       The  following  example show how to Create a control server and use pumactl(1) to interact
       with the control server to restart puma.
              puma --control-url tcp://127.0.0.1:9293 --control-token foo
              pumactl --control-url 'tcp://127.0.0.1:9293' --control-token foo restart

CONFIGURATION FILE

       puma will look for a configuration file at config/puma.rb. If an environment is specified,
       either  via  the  -e  and  --environment  flags,  or through the RACK_ENV or the RAILS_ENV
       environment variables, it looks for configuration at config/puma/<environment_name>.rb.

       The -C flag allows one to pass on a custom configuration location. If the value  specified
       is a dash (-) puma won't look for any configuration file:

              puma -C "-"
