Have padrino start eval config.ru

[postmodern]

I feel that any code included in config.ru should be ran when running the app in development mode.

[dariocravero]

Mmm, I don't know about that @postmodern. The way I see it, config.ru is there for rackup to pick it up and for application servers to work properly.
What are you trying to achieve? Maybe config/boot.rb or config/apps.rb are a better fit?

[postmodern]

I was thinking of adding middleware to config.ru so that it would run before Padrino's middleware.

@postmodern
What you're really looking for, I feel, is something like foreman.

[postmodern]

Just trying to use a middleware before Padrino's own middleware, in particular Rack::Protection::AuthenticityToken.

[dariocravero]

@postmodern and why don't you just ran your app using rackup instead of padrino start? It's virtually the same thing :)

[postmodern]

rackup doesn't do reloading, also I could see it confusing developers.

[skade]

@postmodern For now, you can use Padrino.use for that, which puts things in front of the whole Padrino stack.

I do, however, get this request quite often and I think its reasonable, because it makes all environments behave the same.

@skade should we plan this for 0.12 maybe?

[skade]

Not earlier, it might surprise people.

@skade can u work on this?
