Quick Start

$ gem install postbin
$ postbin

== Sinatra/1.3.1 has taken the stage on 6969 for development with backup from Thin
>> Thin web server (v1.2.11 codename Bat-Shit Crazy)
>> Maximum connections set to 1024
>> Listening on 127.0.0.1:6969, CTRL+C to stop

When running postbin from the command line, requests are stored in a temporary file database, they will be lost once the server terminates.

Rack Application

You can run a more permeant install by running PostBin as a Rack application:

# example config.ru
require 'postbin'

# path of pstore file to use for storage.
pstore = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'postbin.pstore'))

# start the server.
PostBin::Server.set :pstore_file, pstore
run PostBin::Server.new(pstore)
