Meant to comment under this...


Agreed.... Find Problem before product


A joke right? You don't find use for time, you find time for use.


Clearly you are being sarcastic... lol


Good question!

Certainly long-lived URI's. As for resources, I suppose conceptually there is. However you are correct that the given executable would determine a level for resources. So I guess the answer is YES. Support for RESTul is RESTful. Or not, depending upon your executable.


-> grandiloquent? (it's designed just to be simple) like the message :)

Hi, one of the developers here. Not all servers run CGI. Sure, while there are wrappers that can do it, for example for nginx, it isn't pretty. The purpose for REBIN is a clear and concise serving of executables without the overhead of say Apache. I think the readme is rather verbose... Call me surprised :)


To be brutally honest, the readme didn't really sell the product. But then I guess that's not the point of the readme. However none of your other documentation (blog posts, Rebin product page, etc) explained what sets this product apart either.

I think I get it's point now - though I can't pretend to be sure of that. I can see that you're trying to do something a little different from CGI (which, incidentally is available for node.js as well), I'm just not entirely sure how different you two are. I guess the proof of that may just be in using it :)

Either way, it's good to see it up on github and I'm sure plenty people will be grateful for your work.


Thanks for this! We have some plans that may indeed differentiate further from CGI.


Hi, it's still super small relatively speaking. As far as Node and Redis, those are both pretty common these days.
