require 'mongrel'


# Implements a handler that can run Rails and serve files out of the
# Rails application's public directory.  This lets you run your Rails
# application with Mongrel during development and testing, then use it
# also in production behind a server that's better at serving the 
# static files.
#
# The RailsHandler takes a mime_map parameter which is a simple suffix=mimetype
# mapping that it should add to the list of valid mime types.
#
# It also supports page caching directly and will try to resolve a request
# in the following order:
#
# * If the requested exact PATH_INFO exists as a file then serve it.
# * If it exists at PATH_INFO+".html" exists then serve that.
# * Finally, construct a Mongrel::CGIWrapper and run Dispatcher.dispath to have Rails go.
#
# This means that if you are using page caching it will actually work with Mongrel
# and you should see a decent speed boost (but not as fast as if you use lighttpd).
#
# An additional feature you can use is 
class RailsHandler < Mongrel::HttpHandler

  end
  
  # Attempts to resolve the request as follows:
  #
  #
  # * If the requested exact PATH_INFO exists as a file then serve it.
  # * If it exists at PATH_INFO+".html" exists then serve that.
  # * Finally, construct a Mongrel::CGIWrapper and run Dispatcher.dispath to have Rails go.
