  halt code
end

#etag(value, kind = :strong) ⇒ Object

Set the response entity tag (HTTP ‘ETag’ header) and halt if conditional GET matches. The value argument is an identifier that uniquely identifies the current version of the resource. The strength argument indicates whether the etag should be used as a :strong (default) or :weak cache validator.

When the current request includes an ‘If-None-Match’ header with a matching etag, execution is immediately halted. If the request method is GET or HEAD, a ‘304 Not Modified’ response is sent.

Raises:

  • (TypeError)

  raise TypeError, ":strong or :weak expected" if ![:strong,:weak].include?(kind)
  value = '"%s"' % value
  value = 'W/' + value if kind == :weak
  response['ETag'] = value

  # Conditional GET check
  if etags = env['HTTP_IF_NONE_MATCH']
    etags = etags.split(/\s*,\s*/)
    halt 304 if etags.include?(value) || etags.include?('*')
  end
end

#last_modified(time) ⇒ Object

Set the last modified time of the resource (HTTP ‘Last-Modified’ header) and halt if conditional GET matches. The time argument is a Time, DateTime, or other object that responds to to_time.

When the current request includes an ‘If-Modified-Since’ header that matches the time specified, execution is immediately halted with a ‘304 Not Modified’ response.
