Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: what is *hack*?

rack (and hack) permits also to concatenate applications (request handlers) one in top of the other. with interesting combinations (filters, encriptation layers, applications as such). It seems that this is the reason for its name. At first sight it seems too little code to make something useful, but it´s fine. 2010/1/13 Pasqualino "Titto" Assini

Hi Michael,

what is your experience with hack? Do you have any problem moving your apps from one server/env to another?

Hi Michael,

on first impression this seems like a good idea then.

Günther,

Hack is a layer between a web application and a web server. It allows you to write a web application once and have it communicate with the server in different ways simply by swapping the handler. For example, I have applications that I test on my local system using hack-handler-simpleserver and then deploy onto an Apache server using either hack-handler-cgi or hack-handler-fastcgi.
