On the one hand I'm thinking that people might appreciate not having to think about how to run the server, but on the other I'm thinking that people will learn more if we don't wrap simple stuff like this up. I'm not a fan of rails server
for just this reason; I've no idea how it actually hooks Rack into my Rails apps. I am a fan of foreman start
though; I'm not after making people type more, just exposing an appropriate amount of how stuff works.
This line of thought made me realise that nesta server
doesn't solve a problem people have (as far as I'm aware). All things being equal, less is more.
There's also a risk that people who are new to deploying Rack apps will interpret nesta server
to be something they ought to run in production, which would be bad.
Do you agree?
I'm always looking for ways to think less. :) I do see your your point though. It probably is more important for users to understand the server details and not try to use it in production.
Cool. I'll close it…
I thought adding a "nesta server" command to start the dev server might be a nice feature. What do you think @gma?
