Pod::Server 1.12

In the Ruby world, there is an utility called gem_server which starts up a little web server that serves documentation for all the locally installed RubyGems.

Developer comments

When I was coding in Ruby, I found it really useful to know what gems I had installed and how to use their various APIs.

SYNOPSIS

Usage for the pod_server script:

 pod_server [OPTION]...

Examples:

 pod_server --help

 pod_server -bg '#301'

Then, in your browser, visit:

 http://localhost:8088/

How to start up a Continuity-based server manually (via code):

 use Pod::Server 'On::Continuity';
 Pod::Server->init;
 Pod::Server->continue(port => 8088);

How to embed Pod::Server into a Catalyst app:

 use Pod::Server 'On::Catalyst';
 Pod::Server->init;
 Pod::Server->relocate('/pod');
 $Pod::Simple::HTML::Perldoc_URL_Prefix = '/pod/';
 sub pod : Local { Pod::Server->catalyze($_[1]) }
