Yeah, currently I am.  I'm not yet sure on how to proceed from here.
The amount of stuff used from Spiffy might grow, or it might not.

Of course, anyone who wants to write an adaptor for a different
backend is welcome to do so!

I see. I didn't realize that part is used.
That said, you are using only a small part of Spiffy, right?
I think I should use the Spiffy backend in any case, though.

You could certainly write one, but it would be a bit more work because Spiffy
already takes care of tracing a path to the requested script and generates
PATHINFO.  It would be wasteful to duplicate that algorithm in web-unity for
Spiffy.

Soulds really cool!

One question is why its backend is spiffy, and not http-server.
Is it possible to have an additional backend for http-server?

[Chicken-users] RFC: web-unity egg

2007-10-26 Thread Peter Bex
Hi all,

I just made a new egg called "web-unity".  Its purpose is pretty simple:
it allows you to create web applications which can run via CGI, SCGI, FCGI
or Spiffy without having to change the code.  All that's needed is a
server-specific dispatcher procedure which hands off the request to a
generic procedure that does the work.

Have a look at its wiki page and try out the egg (available through svn
only right now), let me know where it can be improved.

Cheers,
Peter
