Support for on-demand starting about puma HOT 6 CLOSED

Is there anything needed to be done in Puma to support this?

I wouldn't see how to start Puma/rack in its current state. If it is possible, there should be something in the docs explaining it.

You start Puma by running puma? Or bundle exec puma

Have you seen https://github.com/puma/puma/blob/master/docs/systemd.md?

No, didn't see this.

I recently spent some time trying to find a solution for rack applications with different servers such as puma, but for whatever reason, I did not find this, not a single hint that puma is capable of running from systemd with socket activation.

But it seems to solve my problem only partly.

If you need to pass the TLS key file with a -b option like
ExecStart=//puma -b tcp://0.0.0.0:9292 -b ssl://0.0.0.0:9293?key=key.pem&cert=cert.pem

will this still work with socket activation? The Examples seem to intermix a permanent start as a regular service with a socket activation.

I'm not using systemd myself so I'm not sure. Maybe you can test it and report back. Maybe you can even improve the docs if there's need for that. This is open source after all :-)

I don't think anything needs to happen in Puma to accomplish this, so I'll close the issue. Happy to be proven wrong though!
