Class: Webmachine::Adapters::Rack

Inherits:
Webmachine::Adapter show all
Defined in:
lib/webmachine/adapters/rack.rb

Overview

A minimal “shim” adapter to allow Webmachine to interface with Rack. The intention here is to allow Webmachine to run under Rack-compatible web-servers, like unicorn and pow.

The adapter expects your Webmachine application to be mounted at the root path - it will NOT allow you to nest your Webmachine application at an arbitrary path eg. map “/api” { run MyWebmachineAPI } To use map your Webmachine application at an arbitrary path, use the ‘Webmachine::Adapters::RackMapped` subclass instead.

To use this adapter, create a config.ru file and populate it like so:

require 'webmachine/adapters/rack'

# put your own Webmachine resources in another file:
require 'my/resources'

run MyApplication.adapter

Servers like pow and unicorn will read config.ru by default and it should all “just work”.

And for development or testing your application can be run with Rack’s builtin Server identically to the WEBrick adapter with:

MyApplication.run
