haml-transpiler-server

Simple HTTP server which allows transpiling HAML files through HTTP request

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'haml-transpiler-server'
# And one of the followings
gem 'puma'
gem 'thin'
gem 'webrick'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install haml-transpiler-server
$ gem install thin # or puma or webrick

Usage is simple:

hamlts

It will start an HTTP server on port 5487.

Performing an HTTP POST request to /content with content param set to a valid HAML string will return the HTML version of it in the body. For example:

curl -X POST -F 'content=%div hello world' 'http://127.0.0.1:5487/content'

Will output <div>hello world</div>.

Performing an HTTP POST request to /path with path param set to a full file path with where the server is hosted will return the HTML version of the content of the file, if it's valid HAML.

If any error is raised, a generic 500 code is reported, with error message and backtrace as body.

You can also test if the server is running by checking if the /test endpoint is reachable:

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:5487/test'

The gem starts in development/production/test based on RACK_ENV environment variable.

Port can be set to something different by setting the HAMLTS_PORT env variable.

By default, the server binds to 0.0.0.0, but you can change it by setting HAMLTS_BIND env variable.

HAMLTS_PIDFILE can be used to configure pidfile location.

HAMLTS_SERVER can be used to configure which server to use. By default it tries in sequence puma, thin and webrick.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Can be used with haml-transpiler-server-loader to compile HAML files without the overhead of reloading the entire ruby env every HAML file you need to compile with hamlrb.
