I am porting my application from ruby fcgi to rack which is in
production using the Lighttpd webserver.
I noticed that lighttpd doesn't send PATH_INFO or QUERY_STRING so I
used to patch it by reconstructing it from REQUEST_URI. Now with Rack
I have exactly the same situation. Rack::Request.GET is empty. This
fix on the environment makes it working:
class RackApp
def fix_env(ec)
if (ec['PATH_INFO'].to_s.empty?) then
pi = ec['REQUEST_URI']
pi = pi[0..(pi.index('?')-1)] if pi.include?('?')
ec['PATH_INFO'] = pi
end
if (ec['QUERY_STRING'].to_s.empty?) then
ec['QUERY_STRING'] = ec['REQUEST_URI'].include?('?') ?
ec['REQUEST_URI'].scan(/.?\?(.*)/)[0][0] :
""
end
ec
end
def call(env)
Rack::Request.new(fix_env(env))
# [...]
end
end
As far as I know Lighttpd and Rails (which used Rack?!) is a popular
combination - so I am quiet surprised that I don't find anything
related on the web. Especially - shouldn't that be implemented into
Rack's CGI/FastCGI Handler?
