I think that overlap? and within? are two different things, which I'm not sure you think from your email. Overlap? suggests, to me, that a subset of the things one range includes is the same as a subset of things that the other range includes. Within? suggests that all of one range is contained in a subset of the other range.

Sending FCGI requests *from* Ruby

From: Brian Candler <B.Candler@...>
Date: 2007-02-01 12:20:09 UTC
List: ruby-talk #237132
Writing FCGI apps in Ruby, which are spawned from Apache or lighttpd, is
straightforward enough.

What I want to know is, what's the best way which a Ruby program can invoke
other FCGI apps and send requests *to* them? And has anyone had success
doing this?

The application I have in mind is to make use of some existing perl code. I
don't want to do

   rc = system("/usr/bin/perl", "foo.pl", *args)

for every operation, as this spawns a whole perl interpreter each time.

So what I wanted to do was to make minimal changes to the perl code so that
it could accept multiple requests in a loop.

I could just popen() each perl script and chat down stdin/stdout, but this
limits me to one instance of this application per Ruby process. In practice
there will be 10 or 20 different perl scripts that I want to persist, but
each Ruby process will only invoke one or two of them before it finishes.

However, if I use FCGI, I can have shared pools of Perl instances to be
invoked by other Ruby processes as they come and go, and the size of each
pool can be tuned statically or dynamically. This is very attractive.

So how to achieve this? I could run those perl FCGI's under Apache, and then
use Ruby's Net::HTTP to send requests to Apache which in turn sends them to
those FCGIs. But I wondered if there was a more lightweight way to do this,
formatting the FCGI requests and/or starting the pool of FCGI slave
processes directly from Ruby.

(Having said that, using HTTP as the glue, optionally with XMLRPC or SOAP
running over it, would arguably be a "standard" solution)

I can use the standalone program cgi-fcgi to start the pool members:
http://www.fastcgi.com/devkit/doc/cgi-fcgi.1

So what I'm really looking for is something like the cgi-fcgi's "-bind
-connect" option, to pass a CGI request down the socket, but written in
or wrapped for Ruby. But I'm also open to suggestions for other ways to
achieve what I'm trying to do.

Thanks,

Brian.

P.S. Searching around, I did notice there's a webrick-fcgi module, which I
thought maybe I could rip some code from.

The website pointed to by http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/webrick-fcgi/
is http://theinternetco.net/projects/ruby/webrick-fcgi/

This returns Content-Type: application/octet-stream, meaning the page does
not display in a browser!

Furthermore, if you try to download the source from
http://theinternetco.net/projects/ruby/webrick-fcgi/webrick-fcgi-0.1.0.tar.gz
you get an HTML page rather than a tarball. So I can't download it, and
I imagine it's unlikely that many people are using it.
