Compile all .rb files of a Ruby on Rails app to .c

Question

Is it possible to compile all .rb source files files (including the configuration source file files) of Ruby on Rails to .class files using JRuby, pack it into a .war file and deploy to JBoss or another Java appserver?

Answer 1

the following command should compile all .rb to .class

warble compiled

in the warble.rb file you can uncomment the line to compile only some Ruby files

# config.compiled_ruby_files = FileList['app/**/*.rb']

Answer 2

Check out warbler for this purpose.

From the main page:

Warbler is a gem that makes a .war file out of a Rails, Merb, or Rack-based application. The intent is to provide a minimal, flexible, ruby-like way to bundle all your application files for deployment to a Java application server.
