InvoicePrinter contains a built in server that can be run from a command line with invoice_printer_server
.
Apart from this you can also manually mount the server inside of your Rack application.
Once installed, InvoicePrinter provides invoice_printer_server
executable that starts the Puma server:
invoice_printer_server -h 0.0.0.0 -p 5000
-h
defines a host and -p
defines a port. For help you can run --help
.
By default server binds to 0.0.0.0:9393
.
If you want you can always run the server from your custom program or mount it directly from a Rack app.
InvoicePrinter::Server
is a Rack app as any other. Example:
require 'rack/handler/puma'
require 'invoice_printer/server'
Rack::Handler::Puma.run InvoicePrinter::Server.freeze.app
Endpoints accept similar arguments as the corresponding methods to InvoicePrinter
