# 3) Using Rail's `mount` helper in routes.rb will serve up the proper html,
#    but the generated docs will reference top level assets like
#    /js/live.js and /css/custom.css. Is there a way to prefix
#    all the generated docs with '/doc'?

end

# 4) Proposed changes for mounting docs alongside another rack app. This
#    change would be more for convenience and would be backwards compatible
#    with the old interface. Additionally, change the default routing behavior
#    to not anchor paths, but allow an option `:anchor` for configuration

# General rack application. If there's a .yardoc directory in the same
# directory as .config.ru, then default the lib name to the directory name,
# and default options to `{single_library: true, caching: false}`
use YARD::Server::RackMiddleware
run YourApp

# or... also gives defaults if .yardoc is detected
