Overview

Handlers connect web servers with Rack.

Rack includes Handlers for Thin, WEBrick, FastCGI, CGI, SCGI and LiteSpeed.

Handlers usually are activated by calling MyHandler.run(myapp). A second optional hash can be passed to include server-specific configuration.

Defined Under Namespace

Classes: CGI, EventedMongrel, FastCGI, LSWS, Mongrel, SCGI, SwiftipliedMongrel, Thin, WEBrick

+ (void) pick(server_names)

Select first available Rack handler given an Array of server names. Raises LoadError if no handler was found.

> pick ['thin', 'webrick'] => Rack::Handler::WEBrick

Raises:

  • (LoadError)

end

+ (void) try_require(prefix, const_name)

Transforms server-name constants to their canonical form as filenames, then tries to require them but silences the LoadError if not found

Naming convention:

Foo # => 'foo' FooBar # => 'foo_bar.rb' FooBAR # => 'foobar.rb' FOObar # => 'foobar.rb' FOOBAR # => 'foobar.rb' FooBarBaz # => 'foo_bar_baz.rb'
