OpenWRT repository of Ruby packages

Ruby packages for OpenWrt Backfire 10.03.1

OpenWrt is described as a Linux distribution for embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. - OpenWrt

There are over 2000 packages available for OpenWrt. Here I provide a few Ruby packages, specifically for a websocket server.

ruby-openwrt packages:

  • Standard OpenWrt Ruby 1.9.2-p0 packages, with an additional ruby-enc-utf package. This package provides only the UTF encodings, instead of the default ruby-enc package (2+MB).
  • eventmachine - "Fast, simple event-processing library for Ruby programs"
  • em-websocket - "EventMachine based WebSocket server" (slightly modified removing dependency on Addressable, and modified file encodings)
  • EmEmChat - A websocket server & html/javascript client chat app using em-websocket and lungo.js
