Grack - Ruby/Rack Git Smart-HTTP Server Handler
|
||
|
|
===============================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This project aims to replace the builtin git-http-backend CGI handler
|
||
|
|
distributed with C Git with a Rack application. This reason for doing this
|
||
|
|
is to allow far more webservers to be able to handle Git smart http requests.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The default git-http-backend only runs as a CGI script, and specifically is
|
||
|
|
only targeted for Apache 2.x usage (it requires PATH_INFO to be set and
|
||
|
|
specifically formatted). So, instead of trying to get it to work with
|
||
|
|
other CGI capable webservers (Lighttpd, etc), we can get it running on nearly
|
||
|
|
every major and minor webserver out there by making it Rack capable. Rack
|
||
|
|
applications can run with the following handlers:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* CGI
|
||
|
|
* FCGI
|
||
|
|
* Mongrel (and EventedMongrel and SwiftipliedMongrel)
|
||
|
|
* WEBrick
|
||
|
|
* SCGI
|
||
|
|
* LiteSpeed
|
||
|
|
* Thin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These web servers include Rack handlers in their distributions:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Ebb
|
||
|
|
* Fuzed
|
||
|
|
* Phusion Passenger (which is mod_rack for Apache and for nginx)
|
||
|
|
* Unicorn
|
||
|
|
* Puma
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
With [Warbler](http://caldersphere.rubyforge.org/warbler/classes/Warbler.html),
|
||
|
|
and JRuby, we can also generate a WAR file that can be deployed in any Java
|
||
|
|
web application server (Tomcat, Glassfish, Websphere, JBoss, etc).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since the git-http-backend is really just a simple wrapper for the upload-pack
|
||
|
|
and receive-pack processes with the '--stateless-rpc' option, it does not
|
||
|
|
actually re-implement very much.

||

Dependencies
|
||
|
|
========================
|
||
|
|
* Ruby - http://www.ruby-lang.org
|
||
|
|
* Rack - http://rack.rubyforge.org
|
||
|
|
* A Rack-compatible web server
|
||
|
|
* Git >= 1.7 (currently the 'pu' branch)
|
||
|
|
* Mocha (only for running the tests)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Quick Start
|
||
|
|
========================
|
||
|
|
$ gem install rack
|
||
|
|
$ (edit config.ru to set git project path)
|
||
|
|
$ rackup --host 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 config.ru
|
||
|
|
$ git clone http://127.0.0.1:8080/schacon/grit.git
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Contributing
|
||
|
|
========================
|
||
|
|
If you would like to contribute to the Grack project, I prefer to get
|
||
|
|
pull-requests via GitHub. You should include tests for whatever functionality
|
||
|
|
you add. Just fork this project, push your changes to your fork and click
|
||
|
|
the 'pull request' button. To run the tests, you first need to install the
|
||
|
|
'mocha' mocking library and initialize the submodule.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo gem install mocha
|
||
|
|
$ git submodule init
|
||
|
|
$ git submodule update
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then you should be able to run the tests with a 'rake' command. You can also
|
||
|
|
run coverage tests with 'rake rcov' if you have rcov installed.
