126
+ <p>
127
+ Tiny, fast &amp; funny HTTP server
128
+ </p>
129
+ <p>
130
+ <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> is a web server written entirely in
131
+ Ruby in the simplest way possible. It does as little as possible to serve
132
+ your Rails application, which makes it one of the fastest Rails server out
133
+ there.
134
+ </p>
135
+ <h3>Installation</h3>
136
+ <p>
137
+ For the latest stable version:
138
+ </p>
139
+ <pre>
140
+ sudo gem install thin
141
+ </pre>
142
+ <p>
143
+ For the risky but so much cooler alpha version:
144
+ </p>
145
+ <pre>
146
+ sudo gem install thin --source http://code.macournoyer.com
147
+ </pre>
148
+ <p>
149
+ Or from source:
150
+ </p>
151
+ <pre>
152
+ svn co http://code.macournoyer.com/svn/thin/trunk thin
153
+ cd thin
154
+ rake install
155
+ </pre>
156
+ <h3>Usage</h3>
157
+ <p>
158
+ In your Rails app directory:
159
+ </p>
160
+ <pre>
161
+ thin start
162
+ </pre>
163
+ <p>
164
+ See <a
165
+ href="http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin.html">code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin.html</a>
166
+ </p>
167
+ <h3>Deployment</h3>
168
+ <p>
169
+ To deploy your Rails application using a cluster of thin servers. You can
170
+ start it with:
171
+ </p>
172
+ <pre>
173
+ thin_cluster start
174
+ </pre>
175
+ <p>
176
+ To use the Capistrano recipes, add this to your Capfile:
177
+ </p>
178
+ <pre>
179
+ require 'thin'
180
+ require 'thin/recipes'
181
+ </pre>
182
+ <p>
183
+ and create a config file using:
184
+ </p>
185
+ <pre>
186
+ thin_cluster config
187
+ </pre>
188
+ <p>
189
+ See <a
190
+ href="http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin_cluster.html">code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin_cluster.html</a>
191
+ </p>
192
+ <h3>Security</h3>
193
+ <p>
194
+ <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> should never be used facing the
195
+ internet directly, it should always be hidden behind a proxy server!
196
+ </p>
197
+ <p>
198
+ <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> is faster because it doesn&#8216;t
199
+ do a lot of things that other Ruby web servers do (use threads, validate
200
+ the body length, be very strict about the request format, etc.) but that a
201
+ good proxy server do very well (and a lot faster then any Ruby code could
202
+ possibly do). So it is very important that you setup you proxy server
203
+ correctly in order to secure <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> from
204
+ potential attacks.
205
+ </p>
206
+ <p>
207
+ Nginx comes with everything you need and can be used securely out of the
208
+ box with thin.
209
+ </p>
210
+ <p>
211
+ Apache mod_proxy is not secure because it doesn&#8216;t cache the request
212
+ before sending it to the backend, which open your server to easy DoS
213
+ attacks. You need to install mod_accel (<a
214
+ href="http://sysoev.ru/en">sysoev.ru/en</a>/) to make mod_proxy behave like
215
+ Nginx on that side.

126

127
+ Tiny, fast &amp; funny HTTP server
128
+ </p>
129
+ <p>
130
+ <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> is a web server written entirely in
131
+ Ruby in the simplest way possible. It does as little as possible to serve
132
+ your Rails application, which makes it one of the fastest Rails server out
133
+ there.
134
+ </p>
135
+ <h3>Installation</h3>
136
+ <p>
137
+ For the latest stable version:
138
+ </p>
139
+ <pre>
140
+ sudo gem install thin
141
+ </pre>
142
+ <p>
143
+ For the risky but so much cooler alpha version:
144
+ </p>
145
+ <pre>
146
+ sudo gem install thin --source http://code.macournoyer.com
147
+ </pre>
148
+ <p>
149
+ Or from source:
150
+ </p>
151
+ <pre>
152
+ svn co http://code.macournoyer.com/svn/thin/trunk thin
153
+ cd thin
154
+ rake install
155
+ </pre>
156
+ <h3>Usage</h3>
157
+ <p>
158
+ In your Rails app directory:
159
+ </p>
160
+ <pre>
161
+ thin start
162
+ </pre>
163
+ <p>
164
+ See <a
165
+ href="http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin.html">code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin.html</a>
166
+ </p>
167
+ <h3>Deployment</h3>
168
+ <p>
169
+ To deploy your Rails application using a cluster of thin servers. You can
170
+ start it with:
171
+ </p>
172
+ <pre>
173
+ thin_cluster start
174
+ </pre>
175
+ <p>
176
+ To use the Capistrano recipes, add this to your Capfile:
177
+ </p>
178
+ <pre>
179
+ require 'thin'
180
+ require 'thin/recipes'
181
+ </pre>
182
+ <p>
183
+ and create a config file using:
184
+ </p>
185
+ <pre>
186
+ thin_cluster config
187
+ </pre>
188
+ <p>
189
+ See <a
190
+ href="http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin_cluster.html">code.macournoyer.com/thin/doc/files/bin/thin_cluster.html</a>
191
+ </p>
192
+ <h3>Security</h3>
193
+ <p>
194
+ <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> should never be used facing the
195
+ internet directly, it should always be hidden behind a proxy server!
196
+ </p>
197
+ <p>
198
+ <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> is faster because it doesn&#8216;t
199
+ do a lot of things that other Ruby web servers do (use threads, validate
200
+ the body length, be very strict about the request format, etc.) but that a
201
+ good proxy server do very well (and a lot faster then any Ruby code could
202
+ possibly do). So it is very important that you setup you proxy server
203
+ correctly in order to secure <a href="../classes/Thin.html">Thin</a> from
204
+ potential attacks.
205
+ </p>
206
+ <p>
207
+ Nginx comes with everything you need and can be used securely out of the
208
+ box with thin.
209
+ </p>
210
+ <p>
211
+ Apache mod_proxy is not secure because it doesn&#8216;t cache the request
212
+ before sending it to the backend, which open your server to easy DoS
213
+ attacks. You need to install mod_accel (<a
214
+ href="http://sysoev.ru/en">sysoev.ru/en</a>/) to make mod_proxy behave like
215
+ Nginx on that side.
