guard-rails/README.md

Want to restart your Rails development server whilst you work? Now you can!

guard 'rails', :port => 5000 do
  watch('Gemfile.lock')
  watch(%r{^(config|lib)/.*})
end

Lots of fun options!

• :port is the port number to run on (default 3000)
• :environment is the environment to use (default development)
• :start_on_start will start the server when starting Guard (default true)
• :force_run kills any process that's holding open the listen port before attempting to (re)start Rails (default false).
• :daemon runs the server as a daemon, without any output to the terminal that ran guard (default false).
• :debugger runs the server with the debugger enabled (default false). Required ruby-debug gem.
• :timeout waits this number of seconds when restarting the Rails server before reporting there's a problem (default 20).
• :server lets you specify the webserver engine to use (try :server => :thin).
• :pid_file specify your pid_file, so that maybe you can run multiple instances with same rails_env (default tmp/pids/[RAILS_ENV].pid)
• :zeus support zeus to boost rails init speed.

Feel free to fork'n'fix for any willing.
