Rack::Rewrite is a web-server agnostic rack middleware for defining and applying rewrite rules. In many cases you can get away with Rack::Rewrite instead of writing Apache mod_rewrite rules.

Documentation is hosted at RubyForge. The source code is hosted at GitHub.

Updates include:

API

• Fix rack 1.1.0 / rails3 compatibility by eliminating reliance on REQUEST_URI env param. Paths are now constructed with PATH_INFO and QUERY_STRING
• Follow rack directory/require convention: require ‘rack/rewrite’ instead of ‘rack-rewrite’
• Include an HTML anchor tag linked to where the URL being redirected to in the body of 301′s and 302′s

Updates include:

API

• Implement $& substitution pattern (thanks to Ben Brinckerhoff)

Maintenance

• Ignore empty captures instead of failing during subsitution (thanks to Ben Brinckerhoff)
• Play nice with Rack::Test requests which only set PATH_INFO and not REQUEST_URI (thanks to @docunext)
• Use QUERY_STRING instead of QUERYSTRING as per Rack spec. Closes Issue #1.
