Rack::Builder

Rack::Builder implements a small DSL to iteratively construct Rack applications.

Example:

 app = Rack::Builder.new {
   use Rack::CommonLogger
   use Rack::ShowExceptions
   map "/lobster" do
     use Rack::Lint
     run Rack::Lobster.new
   end
 }

 app = Rack::Builder.app do
   use Rack::CommonLogger
   lambda { |env| [200, {'Content-Type' => 'text/plain'}, 'OK'] }
 end

use adds a middleware to the stack, run dispatches to an application. You can use map to construct a Rack::URLMap in a convenient way.
