+ # Sends the file. This uses a server-appropriate method (such as X-Sendfile)
+ # via the Rack::Sendfile middleware. The header to use is set via
+ # +config.action_dispatch.x_sendfile_header+.
+ # Your server can also configure this for you by setting the X-Sendfile-Type header.
+ #
+ # Be careful to sanitize the path parameter if it is coming from a web
+ # page. <tt>send_file(params[:path])</tt> allows a malicious user to
+ # download any file on your server.
+ #
+ # Options:
+ # * <tt>:filename</tt> - suggests a filename for the browser to use.
+ # Defaults to <tt>File.basename(path)</tt>.
+ # * <tt>:type</tt> - specifies an HTTP content type.
+ # You can specify either a string or a symbol for a registered type with <tt>Mime::Type.register</tt>, for example :json.
+ # If omitted, the type will be inferred from the file extension specified in <tt>:filename</tt>.
+ # If no content type is registered for the extension, the default type 'application/octet-stream' will be used.
+ # * <tt>:disposition</tt> - specifies whether the file will be shown inline or downloaded.
+ # Valid values are 'inline' and 'attachment' (default).
+ # * <tt>:status</tt> - specifies the status code to send with the response. Defaults to 200.
+ # * <tt>:url_based_filename</tt> - set to +true+ if you want the browser to guess the filename from
+ # the URL, which is necessary for i18n filenames on certain browsers
+ # (setting <tt>:filename</tt> overrides this option).
+ #
+ # The default Content-Type and Content-Disposition headers are
+ # set to download arbitrary binary files in as many browsers as
+ # possible. IE versions 4, 5, 5.5, and 6 are all known to have
+ # a variety of quirks (especially when downloading over SSL).
+ #
+ # Simple download:
+ #
+ # send_file '/path/to.zip'

+ # Show a JPEG in the browser:
+ #
+ # send_file '/path/to.jpeg', type: 'image/jpeg', disposition: 'inline'
+ #
+ # Show a 404 page in the browser:
+ #
+ # send_file '/path/to/404.html', type: 'text/html; charset=utf-8', status: 404
+ #
+ # Read about the other Content-* HTTP headers if you'd like to
+ # provide the user with more information (such as Content-Description) in
+ # https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.11.
+ #
+ # Also be aware that the document may be cached by proxies and browsers.
+ # The Pragma and Cache-Control headers declare how the file may be cached
+ # by intermediaries. They default to require clients to validate with
+ # the server before releasing cached responses. See
+ # https://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/ for an overview of web caching and
+ # https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.9
