Find out what ports your mongrels are using

I like mongrel. I deploy all of our Rails apps using it.

But…I got sick of opening and reading each of my mongrel_cluster.yml config files when adding a new mongrel to the server.

I cooked up this quick script to list all Rails apps on a production box – and their mongrel ports. It assumes all of your apps live in /var/www/(app_name)/current. You might have to do some modifications if you store your Rails apps in a different place.

Maybe you’ll find it useful as well.

list_mongrel_ports.rb

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

#
# Loops through all rails apps and compiles port information
# for mongrels.
#
# Great for figuring out what ports are in use when deploying a new app.

require 'fileutils'

APP_DIR = '/var/www/'

def get_mongrel_config_info(app)
  config_f = File.join(APP_DIR, app, 'current', 'config', 'mongrel_cluster.yml')
  if File.exists?(config_f)
    starting_port, servers = ''
    File.open(config_f, 'r') do |f|
      while line = f.gets
        if line.include?('port:')
          starting_port = line.gsub(/port:|"| /, '')
        elsif line.include?('servers:')
          servers = line.gsub(/servers:| /, '')
        end
      end
    end
    servers ||= 1
    ports = []
    servers.to_i.times do |i|
      ports << starting_port.to_i+i
    end
    return ports.join(', ')
  else
    return nil
  end
end

Dir.open(APP_DIR).each do |app|
  info = get_mongrel_config_info(app)
  puts "#{app}\n  ports: #{info}" unless info.nil?
end

Sample output

-> ./list_mongrel_ports.rb 
cashboard
  ports: 8500, 8501, 8502, 8503, 8504
getcashboard
  ports: 8010, 8011
cbinfo
  ports: 8700
cbforum
  ports: 8705

Hrm…looks like I could do a little reorganization of my ports :)
