NAME App::Ringleader - Proxy for sproradically-used web application VERSION version 0.1.0 SYNOPSIS use App::Ringleader; App::Ringleader->new( conf => 'ringleader.yml' )->run; DESCRIPTION Ringleader is a proxy that will wake up psgi applications upon request and shut them down after a period of inactivity. It's meant to provide a middle-ground between the slowliness of CGI and the constant resource consumption of plack applications for services that are not often used. Typically, you'll use it via the "ringleader" script. Ringleader relies on Ubic to start and stop the services. For PSGI applications, you probably want to define your services using Ubic::Service::Plack. CONFIGURATION FILE The Ringleader configuration file is YAML-based, and looks like port: 3000 inactivity_delay: 60 services: techblog.babyl.ca: webapp.techblog kittenwar.babyl.ca: webapp.kittenwar CHI: driver: FastMmap port The port of the proxy. Defaults to *3000*. inactivity_delay The minimum time (in minutes) of inactivity before a service will be shut down. Defaults to 60 minutes. services The services Ringleader will monitor. Each service is configured via a key/value pair. The key is the request's host, and the value is the service it related to. CHI The arguments to pass to CHI to build the caching system used by the service. If not provided, CHI::Driver::FastMmap will be used.
