Hi, all I'm Ryosuke MATSUMOTO, a Ph.D. student at Okabe Lab, Network Media Group Department of Intelligence Science and Technology Graduate School of Informatics, Kyoto University in Japan.
My English is not very good, but I am studying at the moment to communicate developers of the world. I have been developing mod_mruby and ngx_mruby from Apr 2012. mod_mruby is a web server extension mechanism using embeddable scripting language mruby which has been attracting attention now. mod_mruby abstract: ----- As the increase of services using Web servers, the number of incidents also is increasing rapidly. In order to solve those problems, it is necessary to extend a functionality of a Web server software. In case of using Apache, developers are required high coding skill of C language and internal specifications of Apache in order to extend the functionality of it. The development of a web server extension requires some high skills, and the maintainability is low since that extension need to compile a code. Therefore, we propose mod_mruby that is a web server extension mechanism using embeddable scripting language mruby which has been attracting attention now. mod_mruby allows to extend the functionality of Apache easily by implementing a mruby script. mod_mruby provides an interface to hook and execute any mruby scripts in the various phases of processing requests inside Apache. When hooking mruby scripts, mruby scripts can process the data of processing requests inside Apache, taking advantage of the characteristics of a embeddable scripting language for C language. We have designed that mod_mruby run at high speed by sharing the data of state transition and the extension library of mruby by multiple mruby scripts and using only different byte code each mruby script. Many developers can implement a web server extension easily by mod_mruby in cooperation with coding style of mruby which is the same as object oriented programming ruby which is widely used by web developers. ----- see slide share about mod_mruby architecture and performance compared with mod_lua, mod_per, and a module written by C language.(Sorry in Japanese) http://www.slideshare.net/matsumoto_r/mrubyweb and mod_mruby receive some glowing notices bellow uri: https://plus.google.com/114552443805676710515/posts/Jbh4S3Zsz2S http://matt.aimonetti.net/posts/2012/04/25/getting-started-with-mruby/ and mod_mruby was referred form the keynote of mruby by Matz like http://www.everytalk.tv/talks/657-Euroko-Keynote . see mruby github: https://github.com/mruby/mruby mod_mruby allows to extend the functionality of Apache easily. mod_mruby proveid an alternative to mod_lua. see mod_mruby github: https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby - example -- proxy by mod_mruby https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/proxy -- support redis and auth provide using mruby-redis https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/blob/master/example/redis -- support auth provide https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/auth -- support limit control https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/limit_control -- support rewrite https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/rewrite -- support vhosts https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/vhost -- support cgroup using mruby-cgroup https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/cgroup -- support Raspberry Pi (hobby) https://github.com/matsumoto-r/mod_mruby/tree/master/example/RaspberryPi and so on.. I write some entry about mod_mruby in my blog (Sorry Japanese) http://blog.matsumoto-r.jp/ So, How do you feel about mod_mruby? I would appreciate it if you could give me your opinion. I'll attend ApacheCon NA 2013 and I'm looking forward to seeing apache developers! Best regards, -- MATSUMOTO Ryosuke < matsu1229 at gmail.com > http://blog.matsumoto-r.jp/
