Tutorials: Passenger Apps

A Passenger App is any Rack-based Ruby app, WSGI-based Python app, or Node.js app that has a “startup file” following the convention that Phusion Passenger Web Application Server instances use to start the process. OnDemand uses the NGINX Integration mode for Passenger, where NGINX and Passenger and individual web app processes all communicate using UNIX domain sockets.

At the bottom of the page is a list of tutorials for developing Passenger apps for OnDemand.
