## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'reifier'
```

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install reifier

## Usage

Use it through rackup:

    $ rackup -s reifier

Or with rails:

    $ rails s reifier

## Available Options

You can adapt the ThreadPool size with following options:

    $ rackup -s reifier -O MinThreads=8 -O MaxThreads=16

Also the amount of workers is adaptable:

    $ rackup -s reifier -O Workers=5

## Config File

You can also use a config file for these and more settings.

When you are using `rails s` reifier tries to load the file from `Rails.root/config/reifier.rb`

When you are using any other rack app it tries to load the file from `Dir.pwd/config/reifier.rb`

See the [example config](examples/reifier.rb)

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` 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](https://rubygems.org).
