[ANN] Halcyon 0.3.7

From: "Matt Todd" <chiology@...>
Date: 2007-12-17 05:59:16 UTC
List: ruby-talk #283865
= Halcyon
== JSON Server App Framework

Halcyon is a JSON Web App Server Framework built on Rack for speed and
light weight.

For more information, read the RDocs: http://halcyon.rubyforge.org/doc/

=== Announcement

I'm pleased to release the very first public version of Halcyon,
version 0.3.7, an alpha release candidate.

* Release Name: halcyon-0.3.7
* Notes: The RDocs are very thorough (at least, for such a young
project). Read through them!
* Changes: Initial Alpha-quality release. Changes in this version:
initial project structuring and design; server implementation with
routing, modular action grouping, pure JSON request/response data,
commandline utility to aid in running Halcyon server apps; client
implementation, able to communicate with the server directly.

== Dependencies

* Rack >= 0.2.0
* JSON >= 1.1.1
* Merb >= 0.4.0

Halcyon is built on top of Rack for swift delivery of very small
informational payloads transmitted through JSON. Merb routes are
employed to make designing app structures easier with routes.

= From the Readme

== Quick start

There's not much to Halcyon. I've put a good deal of time into
fleshing out the RDocs so check out the documentation and the example
directory.

Halcyon is the sister project of Aurora SAS, a simple authentication
server to manage authentication, session management, and user roles
and permissions. It is still very early in development (as Halcyon was
a prerequisite) but there should be some interesting code from that
project to let you see just what Halcyon is capable. Stay tuned!

== Installing with RubyGems

A Gem of Halcyon is available. You can install it with:

  $ sudo gem install halcyon

== Usage

The halcyon command will assist you for running the server. Just run:

  $ halcyon -d -p 3800 example/simple

You may need to cd into the project directory, or, alternatively, you
can cp the files out into your tmp folder and work from there. If
you'd like to just cd, +gem which halcyon+ will tell you where to find
the Gem directory.

Once you've gotten the server running, pull open your browser, point
it to localhost:3800/ and see what happens. Take a look at the source
and try to access the other routes and see how things work. Notice the
response in the browser.

Once you've familiarized yourself with that, kill the server (Ctl+Z)
and start it again without the debugging switch: -d. (+halcyon -h+ for
usage help.)

  $ halcyon -p 3800 example/simple

Now pull it up again in the browser. You'll notice right away that it
blocks all access from any user agent that doesn't meet its
requirements (but debug mode disabled that feature).

The good news about that is that it reduces a lot of the garbage
signals that a normal server might have to endure, but since we're
working with specialized applications, it's perfectly reasonable to be
very stingy about who we talk to.

Now, pull up IRB and require RubyGems and Halcyon (as halcon/client).
Now run the following:

  >> require 'example/simple.client'
  >> s = Simple.new
  >> s.greet("Matt")
  >> s.get("/hello/Matt")
  >> s.url_for('greet', :name => 'John')

And that is some very simple stuff you can do with the Client library.

The Client library is meant to be used in larger applications where a
fraction of functionality requires smaller and faster updates or
quicker responses in a lightweight protocol, perfect for sending
authentication information (over secure channels, of course) or
getting updates on various monitoring sources.

Read more in the RDocs, there's a lot more there to find out. The best
way to learn, though, is to play, and I like to play, so, go for it.

== Contact

Please mail bugs, suggestions and patches to <chiology@gmail.com>.

You are also welcome to join the halcyon channel on irc.freenode.net.

Our website will be up and running soon (I hope), so keep an eye out
on halcyon.rubyforge.org/. We will also have a mailing list in the
future, but for now you can join us on IRC.
