rack middleware static ruby

While at RailsConf this year, I got bored and coded up a Rack middleware for static caching.

Rails has a way to staticly cache pages built-in but not all Ruby web frameworks do, so I figured this would make a good piece of middleware.

( Also, I knew that I wanted to create Staticify and it would require Rack::Staticifier )

 1 # this will cache ALL responses in a 'cache' directory
 2 use Rack::Staticifier
 3 
 4 # this will cache ALL responses in a 'public/my/cached/stuff' directory
 5 use Rack::Staticifier, :root => 'public/my/cached/stuff'
 6 
 7 # this will only cache requests with 'foo' in the URL
 8 use Rack::Staticifier do |env, response|
 9   env['PATH_INFO'].include?('foo')
10 end
