Why is there a separate "unicorn_rails" for Rails apps?
- by Ben Lee
According to the Unicorn docs, there are different binaries for Rails apps and other Rack apps:
non-Rails Rack applications
In APP_ROOT, run:
unicorn
for Rails applications (should work for all 1.2 or later versions)
In RAILS_ROOT, run:
unicorn_rails
They seem to also take the same command-line parameters. But Rails is built on top of rack, so I don't understand why this dichotomy is required. Is there any reason you can't just use unicorn for Rails apps?
