PSGI is an interface between Perl web applications and web servers, and Plack is a Perl module and toolkit that contains PSGI middleware, helpers and adapters to web servers; see http://plackperl.org PSGI and Plack are inspired by Python's WSGI and Ruby's Rack (and probably JavaScript's Jack/JSGI). Plack core distribution includes HTTP::Server::PSGI, a reference PSGI standalone web server implementation. 'plackup' is a command line launcher to run PSGI applications from command line, connecting web app to a web server via Plack::Runner module. By default it uses HTTP::Server::PSGI as a web server. git-instaweb generates gitweb.psgi wrapper (in $GIT_DIR/gitweb). This wrapper uses Plack::App::WrapCGI to compile gitweb.cgi (which is a CGI script) into a PSGI application using CGI::Compile and CGI::Emulate::PSGI. git-instaweb then runs this wrapper, using by default HTTP::Server::PSGI standalone Perl server, via Plack::Runner. The configuration for 'plackup' is currently embedded in generated gitweb.psgi wrapper, instead of using httpd.conf ($conf). To run git-instaweb with '--httpd=plackup', you need to have instaled Plack core, CGI::Emulate::PSGI, CGI::Compile. Those modules have to be available for Perl scripts (which can be done for example by setting PERL5LIB environment variable). This is currently not documented.

git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb

SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git instaweb' [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>]
|

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
A simple script to set up `gitweb` and a web server for browsing the local
|
|
repository.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
-l::
|
|
--local::
|
|
Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).
|
|
|
|
-d::
|
|
--httpd::
|
|
The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed.
|
|
Command-line options may be specified here, and the
|
|
configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line.
|
|
Currently apache2, lighttpd, mongoose, plackup and webrick are supported.
|
|
(Default: lighttpd)
|
|
|
|
-m::
|
|
--module-path::
|
|
The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache).
|
|
(Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)
|
|
|
|
-p::
|
|
--port::
|
|
The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234)
|
|
|
|
-b::
|
|
--browser::
|
|
The web browser that should be used to view the gitweb
|
|
page. This will be passed to the 'git web--browse' helper
|
|
script along with the URL of the gitweb instance. See
|
|
linkgit:git-web--browse[1] for more information about this. If
|
|
the script fails, the URL will be printed to stdout.
|
|
|
|
--start::
|
|
Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
|
|
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
|
|
|
|
--stop::
|
|
Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
|
|
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance,
|
|
nor does it close the browser.
|
|
|
|
--restart::
|
|
Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
|
|
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
|
|
|
