Subject: [ANN] yahns 1.12.3 -_- sleepy app server for Ruby
Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2016 20:01:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160408-yahns-1.12.3-unle@shed> (raw)

A Free Software, multi-threaded, non-blocking network
application server designed for low _idle_ power consumption.
It is primarily optimized for applications with occasional users
which see little or no traffic.  yahns currently hosts Rack/HTTP
applications, but may eventually support other application
types.  Unlike some existing servers, yahns is extremely
sensitive to fatal bugs in the applications it hosts.

Changes:

    yahns 1.12.3 - more fixes and doc updates

    This release only contains two changes since v1.12.2:

    * proxy_http_response: workaround non-terminated backends

      The first is a fix for the undocumented and unstable "proxy_pass"
      feature:
      https://yhbt.net/yahns-public/20160406062556.10988-1-e@80x24.org/t/

      However, I'm considering supporting proxy_pass as a stable API:
      https://yhbt.net/yahns-public/20160220081619.GA10850@dcvr.yhbt.net/t/

    * doc: recommend "verify_mode: OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE"

      Only a documentation change prompted by the discovery that
      some browsers/platforms will try to prompt users for client
      certs:
      https://yhbt.net/yahns-public/20160316003434.GA14791@dcvr.yhbt.net/t/

Please note the disclaimer:

  yahns is extremely sensitive to fatal bugs in the apps it hosts.  There
  is no (and never will be) any built-in "watchdog"-type feature to kill
  stuck processes/threads.  Each yahns process may be handling thousands
  of clients; unexpectedly killing the process will abort _all_ of those
  connections.  Lives may be lost!

  yahns hackers are not responsible for your application/library bugs.
  Use an application server which is tolerant of buggy applications
  if you cannot be bothered to fix all your fatal bugs.
