Hi,
look for documentation for Mongrel::Configurator.
It has method plugin that returns an instance of particular handler:
...
uri '/whatever', :handler => plugin('/handlers/progress', options)
...
if you have
class Progress < GemPlugin::Base '/handlers'
then
plugin('/handlers/progress', options)
is the same as
Progress.new(options)
Then, if you use mongrel_rails, you can use -S switch to insert
additional configuration into
RailsConfigurator, which is a subclass of Mongrel::Configurator
In your script write:
uri '/whatever', :handler => plugin('/handlers/progress', options)
Hope this helps.
What was useful for me to figure this out:
- reading the rdoc for mongrel and gemplugin
- reading the thread on progress plugin on this list
- reading the source of mongrel_rails
- reading the source of another plugin, but I don't remember which one it was
