Gemini Server
RubyGems.orgThe not-very-creatively-named
gemini_server
is a server
for the Gemini Protocol,
a minimalist reinterpretation of HTTP's bare essentials. Likewise,
Gemini Server is a minimalist reinterpretation of the
Sinatra web library for Ruby.
First, a confession: I don't really use Gemini. Heck, I don't serve any content over Gemini. Honestly it just burrowed into my brain one day, and I needed to exorcise it. You ever get one of those?
Yet here it is; maybe I should start making that Gemini site after all.
I attempted to make this library as ergonomic as possible while staying true to the simplicity of the Gemini protocol. The most advanced feature is very basic ERB templating.
I admit I went a little overboard making the server needlessly
concurrent with the
async-io
gem. But sometimes
overengineering is fun.
