Introducing the activeoutline gem

The following sample file was created to demonstrate the activeoutline server:

file: outline.txt

food http://kitchen.com/food
  fruit [r] http://kitchen.com/fruit
    apples http://kitchen.com/fruit?q=apples
    pears http://kitchen.com/fruit?q=pears
spoons http://kitchen.com/spoons
greeting http://a2.jamesrobertson.eu/do/r/hello

require 'activeoutline'

ActiveOutline.new('outline.txt', host: '127.0.0.1').start

require 'activeoutline_client'

ao = ActiveOutlineClient.new host: '127.0.0.1'

ao.fetch 'food/fruit' #=> "[r] http://kitchen.com/fruit" 
ao.fetch 'greeting' #=> "hello_1 2018-03-17 14:08:35 +0000" 

Notes:

1. The default port is 60700
2. The [r] represents a redirect which means the server won't read the contents of the location, it will simply pass the link back to the client
