module ActionController module Head # Returns a response that has no content (merely headers). The options # argument is interpreted to be a hash of header names and values. # This allows you to easily return a response that consists only of # significant headers: # # head :created, location: person_path(@person) # # head :created, location: @person # # It can also be used to return exceptional conditions: # # return head(:method_not_allowed) unless request.post? # return head(:bad_request) unless valid_request? # render # # See Rack::Utils::SYMBOL_TO_STATUS_CODE for a full list of valid +status+ symbols. def head(status, options = {}) if status.is_a?(Hash) msg = status[:status] ?
