Systemd integration for the Warp Web Server (WAI).

Features

Usage

All systemd integrations are off by default. For example, you can modify SystemdSettings to enable the watchdog:

{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}

import Data.Function                                 ((&))
import qualified Network.Wai.Handler.Warp         as Warp
import qualified Network.Wai.Handler.Warp.Systemd as Systemd
import Network.Wai
import Network.HTTP.Types.Status                     (status200)

app :: Application
app _ respond =
  respond $ responseLBS status200 [] "Hello World"

main :: IO ()
main =
  Systemd.runSystemdWarp systemdSettings Warp.defaultSettings app
  where
    systemdSettings = Systemd.defaultSystemdSettings
      & Systemd.setHeartbeatInterval (Just 5)

Systemd Service Example

Let's configure your app to run as a socket-activated systemd service. We'll be using the sample app in example/Main.hs.

If these instructions look too manual, we also have an example NixOS module and test.

  1. Create a new service unit at /etc/systemd/system/warp.service that'll run your Haskell binary:

    [Unit]
    Description=Warp
    [Service]
    Type=notify
    WatchdogSec=30
    ExecStart=path-to-my-haskell-binary
    
  2. Create the socket unit at /etc/systemd/system/warp.socket that'll listen on port 80:

    [Unit]
    Description=Warp
    [Socket]
    ListenStream=80
    [Install]
    WantedBy=sockets.target
    
  3. Enable the socket unit:

    $ sudo systemctl enable --now warp.socket
  4. Verify that the server is running:

    $ systemctl status warp.socket warp.service
    ● warp.service - Warp
