#cache_control(*values) ⇒ Object

Specify response freshness policy for HTTP caches (Cache-Control header). Any number of non-value directives (:public, :private, :no_cache, :no_store, :must_revalidate, :proxy_revalidate) may be passed along with a Hash of value directives (:max_age, :s_maxage).

cache_control :public, :must_revalidate, :max_age => 60 => Cache-Control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=60

See RFC 2616 / 14.9 for more on standard cache control directives: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-14.9.1

#etag(value, options = {}) ⇒ 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 +kind+ 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.

#expires(amount, *values) ⇒ Object

Set the Expires header and Cache-Control/max-age directive. Amount can be an integer number of seconds in the future or a Time object indicating when the response should be considered "stale". The remaining "values" arguments are passed to the #cache_control helper:

expires 500, :public, :must_revalidate => Cache-Control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=500 => Expires: Mon, 08 Jun 2009 08:50:17 GMT

def informational?
  status.between? 100, 199
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 is equal or later than the time specified, execution is immediately halted with a '304 Not Modified' response.
