Bug 126925 – New ebuild request - Mongrel web server

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mark Somerville 2006-03-20 03:32:13 UTC]

Looks like a neat webrick replacement.

[Comment 1 Armando Di Cianno 2006-08-04 08:11:55 UTC]

Mongrel depends on gem_plugin, which is not in the tree yet, and I've opened a bug for it.  I do not have the permissions to set that here -- could the bug reporter or a dev mark that?  bug #142805

ebuild forthcoming.

dev-ruby/mongrel-0.3.13.3

ebuild for mongrel

[Comment 3 Christopher Covington 2006-08-23 11:21:11 UTC]

IMNAD but methinks this should go under net-www. apache, lighttpd and monkeyd aren't filed according to programming language.

I'm a dumbass and didn't actually play around with mongrel before talking. The uninformed should alter their state before opening their mouth *bangs head on wall*.

mongrel-0.3.13.4.ebuild

version 0.3.13.4

[Comment 6 Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy (RETIRED) 2006-12-19 16:42:58 UTC]

mongrel latest version is 0.3.19. Could you please recheck if there is any dependency change?

[Comment 7 Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2006-12-19 22:29:14 UTC]

There seems to optional 'fastthread' requirement as of 0.3.17 (so maybe fastthread USE flag)
It's available from http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases

And latest version of mongrel is 1.0 ;)

[Comment 8 Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy (RETIRED) 2006-12-29 19:59:09 UTC]

Testing it now. Last question: should it belong to www-servers or dev-ruby?

[Comment 9 Tomislav Filipcic 2006-12-30 03:17:04 UTC]

I suggest www-servers since it's a more used as a web server than a library. 

"Mongrel is a fast HTTP library and server for Ruby that is intended for hosting Ruby web applications"

[Comment 10 Tomislav Filipcic 2007-01-02 15:05:15 UTC]

Which ebuild are you using for testing. The attached one? Or your own for version 1.0 RC1 with optional fastthread?

Great! Please commit it as soon as you can. I have a RoR app I can test it with. Mask it in portage if you're unsure. The same for mongrel_cluster. 

Thanks!

Um.. stilling waiting for www-servers' response :) If you want to help testing, I could put those ebuilds here

[Comment 14 Thilo Bangert (RETIRED) (RETIRED) 2007-01-02 23:38:25 UTC]

www-servers category is fine - go ahead. whether the www-servers herd should take over maintenance i remain unconvinced - you guys seem to do all the work... and great work at that. 

same goes for mongrel_cluster in bug #143098, i suppose...

[Comment 15 Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy (RETIRED) 2007-01-04 05:55:24 UTC]

It's in CVS now. Thanks everybody
