Is there a way Rails 3.0.x can default to using Thin?

I run the Thin webserver for basically every app in my dev/test environments. When I used Mongrel with Rails 2.x, all I had to type was script/server to get it to run the webserver I choose. But with Rails 3, I have to specify Thin every time. Is there a way to get Thin running on my Rails apps by just typing rails s instead of rails s thin?

Solution

  • As of Rails 3.2rc2, thin is now run by default on invoking rails server when gem 'thin' is in your Gemfile! Thanks to this pull request: https://github.com/rack/rack/commit/b487f02b13f42c5933aa42193ed4e1c0b90382d7

    Works great for me.
