Instance Method Details

#==(other) ⇒ true, false

def ==(other)
  other = self.class.parse(other)
  other.type == type && other.params == params
end

#exact_match?(other) ⇒ true, false

Detects whether this Webmachine::MediaType matches the other Webmachine::MediaType, taking into account wildcards. Sub-type parameters are treated strictly.

Parameters:

  • other (MediaType, String, Array<String,Hash>)

    the other type

Returns:

  • (true, false)

    whether it is an acceptable match

end

#majorString

Returns The major type, e.g. “application”, “text”, “image”.

Returns:

  • (String)

    The major type, e.g. “application”, “text”, “image”

def major
  type.split("/").first
end

#match?(other) ⇒ true, false

Detects whether the Webmachine::MediaType is an acceptable match for the other Webmachine::MediaType, taking into account wildcards and satisfying all requested parameters, but allowing this type to have extra specificity.

Parameters:

  • other (MediaType, String, Array<String,Hash>)

    the other type

Returns:

  • (true, false)

    whether it is an acceptable match

end

#matches_all?Boolean

Detects whether the Webmachine::MediaType represents an open wildcard type, that is, “/” without any #params.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

end

#params_match?(other) ⇒ true, false

Detects whether the passed sub-type parameters are all satisfied by this Webmachine::MediaType. The receiver is allowed to have other params than the ones specified, but all specified must be equal.

Parameters:

  • params (Hash)

    the requested params

Returns:

  • (true, false)

    whether it is an acceptable match

#type_matches?(other) ⇒ true, false

Returns whether the main media type is acceptable, ignoring params and taking into account wildcards.

Parameters:
