Capistrano - label deployment failed

Question

I am using Capistrano 3.

I want to start a webhook for an external service when my deployment fails.

It is a matter of calling a method that I have already defined, let's call it mark_failed

.

How can I ensure that the method is always called when the deployment fails for any reason other than aborting it with CTRL + C?

Tried messing around with

rescue SystemExit, Interrupt

and rescue StandardError

I have no idea where to put my method so that it is called reliably.

Any hints?

I would suggest using at_exit

.

at_exit do
   mark_failed if $!
end
raise "Something is wrong!"
