PSGI is an interface between Perl web applications and web servers, and Plack is a Perl module and toolkit that contains PSGI middleware, helpers and adapters to web servers; see http://plackperl.org PSGI and Plack are inspired by Python's WSGI and Ruby's Rack. Plack core distribution includes HTTP::Server::PSGI, a reference PSGI standalone web server implementation. plackup is a command line launcher to run PSGI applications from command line, connecting web app to a web server; it uses Plack::Runner module. It uses HTTP::Server::PSGI as a web server by default. git-instaweb generates gitweb.psgi wrapper, which uses Plack::App::WrapCGI to compile a CGI script into a PSGI application using CGI::Compile and CGI::Emulate::PSGI, and runs it with any PSGI server as a PSGI application. To run git-instaweb with '--httpd=plackup', you need to have instaled Plack core, CGI::Emulate::PSGI, CGI::Compile, and available for a Perl script (e.g. by setting PERL5LIB environment variable). Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@xxxxxxxxx> --- Compared to earlier version (only mentioned, but not sent to git mailing list, if I remember correctly), instead of configuring plackup from command line (by modifying $httpd variable), the configuration is embedded in generated gitweb.psgi file. Also instead of using plackup, the generated gitweb.psgi is made into standalone app, running server (so $full_httpd is full path to gitweb.psgi). RFC is because when when running $ ./git-instaweb --httpd=plackup --browser=lynx I get the following error Looking up 127.0.0.1:1234 Making HTTP connection to 127.0.0.1:1234 Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host. lynx: Can't access startfile http://127.0.0.1:1234/ http://127.0.0.1:1234 But running 'lynx http://127.0.0.1:1234/' after this works correctly without problems. Running './.git/gitweb/gitweb.psgi' doesn't cause any problems either. WTF? HELP!!!
