Handlers usually are activated by calling MyHandler.run(myapp). A second optional hash can be passed to include server-specific configuration.

end

.try_require(prefix, const_name) ⇒ Object

Transforms server-name constants to their canonical form as filenames, then tries to require them but silences the LoadError if not found

Naming convention:

Foo # => 'foo'
FooBar # => 'foo_bar.rb'
FooBAR # => 'foobar.rb'
FOObar # => 'foobar.rb'
FOOBAR # => 'foobar.rb'
FooBarBaz # => 'foo_bar_baz.rb'
