htty-rack is an extension to htty that switches the HTTP backend in favour of a Rack application. For that purpose, it also provides a set of commands for controlling which rack application is used etc.

Warning

Alpha. No Features guaranteed.

Installation

Use rubygems:

$ gem install htty-rack

Usage

htty-rack uses a different executable than htty. Start htty-rack using:

$ htty-rack

If no config (*.ru) file is given, htty-rack will recursively descend to find a file called "config.ru".

Examples

Beyond the examples described on the htty page, htty-rack supports a few other commands:

  • app will change the rack appliation in use. The argument must be a ruby constant.
  • config will load a new rackup file and use the application therein.
  • irb starts irb so that you can manipulate the environment.

Thanks

  • Nils Jonsson for writing htty and making this project possible
