Nyane

• http://github.com/arthurgeek/nyane

DESCRIPTION:

Nyane means insignificant in Sesotho, a Bantu Language.

As it's name says, Nyane is an insignificant framework. It was build for educational purposes only. It's not intended to be used in production.

Nyane is based on Invisible (a nice pico-framework Rack-based) but way simpler.

INSTALLATION:

git clone git://github.com/arthurgeek/nyane.git
cd nyane
gem build nyane.gemspec
sudo gem install nyane --local

or

sudo gem install arthurgeek-nyane --source=http://gems.github.com

DEMO APP:

require "rubygems"
require "nyane"

app = Nyane.new do
  get "/" do
    "Hello!"
  end

  get "/bye" do
    "Goodbye"
  end

  get "/echo/(.*)" do |text|
    "#{text}"
  end

end

run app

ERB SUPPORT:

Nyane supports ERB, but you need to explicitly require it

require "rubygems"
require "nyane"
require "nyane/erb"

app = Nyane.new do
  get "/" do
    erb :index
  end

  get "/foo" do
    erb :foo, :layout => false
  end

end

run app

The views need to be at views/ or you can specify it with app.views_directory = "directory_of_views". The layout used is views/layout.erb. To not render a layout, use erb :template, :layout => false. You can also tell which layout to use with erb :template, :layout => :layout

RUNNING THE APP:

The app itself is a Rack config file, so, you can run with: rackup demo.ru and view it at http://localhost:9292 or with Thin: thin start -R demo.ru

The extension needs to be .ru (rack config file)
