  end
end

MyCGI.new.start

The CGI error exception class

Attributes

config[R]

The CGI configuration. This is based on WEBrick::Config::HTTP

logger[R]

The CGI logger

Public Class Methods

new(*args) click to toggle source

Creates a new CGI interface.

The first argument in args is a configuration hash which would update WEBrick::Config::HTTP.

Any remaining arguments are stored in the @options instance variable for use by a subclass.

 
               # File webrick/cgi.rb, line 56
def initialize(*args)
  if defined?(MOD_RUBY)
    unless ENV.has_key?("GATEWAY_INTERFACE")
      Apache.request.setup_cgi_env
    end
  end
  if %r{HTTP/(\d+\.\d+)} =~ ENV["SERVER_PROTOCOL"]
    httpv = $1
  end
  @config = WEBrick::Config::HTTP.dup.update(
    :ServerSoftware => ENV["SERVER_SOFTWARE"] || "null",
    :HTTPVersion    => HTTPVersion.new(httpv || "1.0"),
    :RunOnCGI       => true,   # to detect if it runs on CGI.
    :NPH            => false   # set true to run as NPH script.
  )
  if config = args.shift
    @config.update(config)
  end
  @config[:Logger] ||= WEBrick::BasicLog.new($stderr)
  @logger = @config[:Logger]
  @options = args
end

Public Instance Methods

[](key) click to toggle source

Reads key from the configuration

 
               # File webrick/cgi.rb, line 82
def [](key)
  @config[key]
end
service(req, res) click to toggle source

Services the request req which will fill in the response res. See WEBrick::HTTPServlet::AbstractServlet#service for details.

 
               # File webrick/cgi.rb, line 157
def service(req, res)
  method_name = "do_" + req.request_method.gsub(/-/, "_")
  if respond_to?(method_name)
    __send__(method_name, req, res)
  else
    raise HTTPStatus::MethodNotAllowed,
          "unsupported method `#{req.request_method}'."
  end
end
start(env=ENV, stdin=$stdin, stdout=$stdout) click to toggle source

Starts the CGI process with the given environment env and standard input and output stdin and stdout.

 
               # File webrick/cgi.rb, line 90
def start(env=ENV, stdin=$stdin, stdout=$stdout)

      unless @header["status"]
        phrase = HTTPStatus::reason_phrase(@status)

      end
