= \Rack, a modular Ruby webserver interface {<img src="https://rack.github.io/logo.png" width="400" alt="rack powers web applications" />}[https://rack.github.io/] {<img src="https://circleci.com/gh/rack/rack.svg?style=svg" alt="CircleCI" />}[https://circleci.com/gh/rack/rack] {<img src="https://badge.fury.io/rb/rack.svg" alt="Gem Version" />}[http://badge.fury.io/rb/rack] {<img src="https://api.dependabot.com/badges/compatibility_score?dependency-name=rack&package-manager=bundler&version-scheme=semver" alt="SemVer Stability" />}[https://dependabot.com/compatibility-score.html?dependency-name=rack&package-manager=bundler&version-scheme=semver] {<img src="http://inch-ci.org/github/rack/rack.svg?branch=master" alt="Inline docs" />}[http://inch-ci.org/github/rack/rack] \Rack provides a minimal, modular, and adaptable interface for developing web applications in Ruby. By wrapping HTTP requests and responses in the simplest way possible, it unifies and distills the API for web servers, web frameworks, and software in between (the so-called middleware) into a single method call. The exact details of this are described in the \Rack specification, which all \Rack applications should conform to. == Supported web servers The included *handlers* connect all kinds of web servers to \Rack: * WEBrick[https://github.com/ruby/webrick] * FCGI * CGI * SCGI * LiteSpeed[https://www.litespeedtech.com/] * Thin[https://rubygems.org/gems/thin] These web servers include \Rack handlers in their distributions: * Agoo[https://github.com/ohler55/agoo] * Falcon[https://github.com/socketry/falcon] * Iodine[https://github.com/boazsegev/iodine] * {NGINX Unit}[https://unit.nginx.org/] * {Phusion Passenger}[https://www.phusionpassenger.com/] (which is mod_rack for Apache and for nginx) * Puma[https://puma.io/] * Unicorn[https://yhbt.net/unicorn/] * uWSGI[https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/] Any valid \Rack app will run the same on all these handlers, without changing anything. == Supported web frameworks These frameworks and many others support the \Rack API: * Camping[http://www.ruby-camping.com/] * Coset[http://leahneukirchen.org/repos/coset/] * Hanami[https://hanamirb.org/] * Padrino[http://padrinorb.com/] * Ramaze[http://ramaze.net/] * Roda[https://github.com/jeremyevans/roda] * {Ruby on Rails}[https://rubyonrails.org/] * Rum[https://github.com/leahneukirchen/rum] * Sinatra[http://sinatrarb.com/] * Utopia[https://github.com/socketry/utopia] * WABuR[https://github.com/ohler55/wabur] == Available middleware shipped with \Rack Between the server and the framework, \Rack can be customized to your applications needs using middleware. \Rack itself ships with the following middleware: * Rack::Chunked, for streaming responses using chunked encoding. * Rack::CommonLogger, for creating Apache-style logfiles. * Rack::ConditionalGet, for returning not modified responses when the response has not changed. * Rack::Config, for modifying the environment before processing the request. * Rack::ContentLength, for setting Content-Length header based on body size. * Rack::ContentType, for setting default Content-Type header for responses. * Rack::Deflater, for compressing responses with gzip. * Rack::ETag, for setting ETag header on string bodies. * Rack::Events, for providing easy hooks when a request is received and when the response is sent. * Rack::Files, for serving static files. * Rack::Head, for returning an empty body for HEAD requests. * Rack::Lint, for checking conformance to the \Rack API. * Rack::Lock, for serializing requests using a mutex. * Rack::Logger, for setting a logger to handle logging errors. * Rack::MethodOverride, for modifying the request method based on a submitted parameter. * Rack::Recursive, for including data from other paths in the application, and for performing internal redirects. * Rack::Reloader, for reloading files if they have been modified. * Rack::Runtime, for including a response header with the time taken to process the request. * Rack::Sendfile, for working with web servers that can use optimized file serving for file system paths. * Rack::ShowException, for catching unhandled exceptions and presenting them in a nice and helpful way with clickable backtrace. * Rack::ShowStatus, for using nice error pages for empty client error responses. * Rack::Static, for more configurable serving of static files. * Rack::TempfileReaper, for removing temporary files creating during a request. All these components use the same interface, which is described in detail in the \Rack specification. These optional components can be used in any way you wish. == Convenience If you want to develop outside of existing frameworks, implement your own ones, or develop middleware, \Rack provides many helpers to create \Rack applications quickly and without doing the same web stuff all over: * Rack::Request, which also provides query string parsing and multipart handling. * Rack::Response, for convenient generation of HTTP replies and cookie handling. * Rack::MockRequest and Rack::MockResponse for efficient and quick testing of \Rack application without real HTTP round-trips. * Rack::Cascade, for trying additional \Rack applications if an application returns a not found or method not supported response. * Rack::Directory, for serving files under a given directory, with directory indexes. * Rack::MediaType, for parsing Content-Type headers. * Rack::Mime, for determining Content-Type based on file extension. * Rack::RewindableInput, for making any IO object rewindable, using a temporary file buffer. * Rack::URLMap, to route to multiple applications inside the same process. == rack-contrib The plethora of useful middleware created the need for a project that collects fresh \Rack middleware. rack-contrib includes a variety of add-on components for \Rack and it is easy to contribute new modules. * https://github.com/rack/rack-contrib == rackup rackup is a useful tool for running \Rack applications, which uses the Rack::Builder DSL to configure middleware and build up applications easily. rackup automatically figures out the environment it is run in, and runs your application as FastCGI, CGI, or WEBrick---all from the same configuration. == Quick start Try the lobster! Either with the embedded WEBrick starter: ruby -Ilib lib/rack/lobster.rb Or with rackup: bin/rackup -Ilib example/lobster.ru By default, the lobster is found at http://localhost:9292. == Installing with RubyGems A Gem of \Rack is available at {rubygems.org}[https://rubygems.org/gems/rack]. You can install it with: gem install rack == Usage You should require the library: require 'rack' \Rack uses autoload to automatically load other files \Rack ships with on demand, so you should not need require paths under +rack+. If you require paths under +rack+ without requiring +rack+ itself, things may not work correctly. == Configuration Several parameters can be modified on Rack::Utils to configure \Rack behaviour. e.g: Rack::Utils.key_space_limit = 128 === key_space_limit The default number of bytes to allow all parameters keys in a given parameter hash to take up. Does not affect nested parameter hashes, so doesn't actually prevent an attacker from using more than this many bytes for parameter keys. Defaults to 65536 characters. === param_depth_limit The maximum amount of nesting allowed in parameters. For example, if set to 3, this query string would be allowed: ?a[b][c]=d but this query string would not be allowed: ?a[b][c][d]=e Limiting the depth prevents a possible stack overflow when parsing parameters. Defaults to 100. === multipart_file_limit The maximum number of parts with a filename a request can contain. Accepting too many part can lead to the server running out of file handles. The default is 128, which means that a single request can't upload more than 128 files at once. Set to 0 for no limit. Can also be set via the +RACK_MULTIPART_FILE_LIMIT+ environment variable. (This is also aliased as +multipart_part_limit+ and +RACK_MULTIPART_PART_LIMIT+ for compatibility) === multipart_total_part_limit The maximum total number of parts a request can contain of any type, including both file and non-file form fields. The default is 4096, which means that a single request can't contain more than 4096 parts. Set to 0 for no limit. Can also be set via the +RACK_MULTIPART_TOTAL_PART_LIMIT+ environment variable. == Changelog See {CHANGELOG.md}[https://github.com/rack/rack/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md]. == Contributing See {CONTRIBUTING.md}[https://github.com/rack/rack/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md]. == Contact Please post bugs, suggestions and patches to the bug tracker at {issues}[https://github.com/rack/rack/issues].
