I am new to Ruby/Sinatra but have inherited a Sinatra application.

I read some documention but am looking for a just a simple way to run the existing Sinatra application.

I’ve read that Sinatra-reloader is good to start use for development, but I’m just looking to actually startup the web application.

What’s the command line command I use to start the application and specify the port?
The application is currently configured with a config.ru file.

    Use thin or some other webserver:

    gem install thin

    Then just pass in the rack config file(config.ru):

    $ thin -R config.ru start
>> Thin web server (v1.2.11 codename Bat-Shit Crazy)
>> Maximum connections set to 1024
>> Listening on 0.0.0.0:3000, CTRL+C to stop

    the port in this case is 3000, point browser to 0.0.0.0:3000
