Summary

Rack convenience middleware to simplify handling of Accept header env['HTTP_ACCEPT']. Allows ordering of its values (accepted media types) according to their "quality" (preference level).

This wrapper is typically used to determine the request's prefered media type.

Install

gem install rack-accept-media-types

Example

require 'rack/accept_media_types'

env['HTTP_ACCEPT'] #=> 'application/xml;q=0.8,text/html,text/plain;q=0.9'

req = Rack::Request.new(env)
req.accept_media_types          #=> ['text/html', 'text/plain', 'application/xml']
req.accept_media_types.prefered #=>  'text/html'
