Subject: use of ruby httpd in select()

Either I'm blind or none of the popular (puma, unicorn, thin) httpds
support giving  you out IO object and catering to the request when
you're good and ready.

With exception of webbrick, it seems to support it fine. But I don't
think you can then use any of the rack web frameworks then.



Consider I have some ruby daemon running in background and I want some
way to talk to it runtime  from other software. Maybe canonical
solution is named pipe or domain socket.

But is there way for you to run modern ruby web stack in your daemon,
catering to it in select() (replacing your daemons current sleep in
its main loop)
