rack-jetty

Provides a nice simple Rack Adapter for Jetty under JRuby. Once installed, you can use rackup to start it with:

jruby -S rackup -s Jetty myapp.ru # the -S tells it to search your bin paths for rackup

Or with Rails:

jruby script/server Jetty # no -S needed since it's a relative path

The code for this is intended to be very easy to understand and is entirely done in Ruby, without the help of jruby-rack, so it should be pretty hackable.

Note that if you want to run this as a real server (or for benchmarking), you'll probably want to run jruby with --server so it actually does JIT optimization and the like.

Inspiration credit for this project goes out to Vladimir Dobriakov of Vodafone who wrote jetty-rackup, which wasn't quite what I needed but gave me a hell of a starting point for making this go. Thanks, Vladimir!

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.
  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.
  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
