module ActionController #:nodoc:
  module MimeResponds
    # Without web-service support, an action which collects the data for displaying a list of people
    # might look something like this:
    #
    #   def index
    #     @people = Person.all
    #   end
    #
    # That action implicitly responds to all formats, but formats can also be explicitly enumerated:
    #
    #   def index
    #     @people = Person.all
    #     respond_to :html, :js
    #   end
    #
    # Here's the same action, with web-service support baked in:
    #
    #   def index
    #     @people = Person.all
    #
    #     respond_to do |format|
    #       format.html
    #       format.js
    #       format.xml { render xml: @people }
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # What that says is, "if the client wants HTML or JS in response to this action, just respond as we
    # would have before, but if the client wants XML, return them the list of people in XML format."
    # (Rails determines the desired response format from the HTTP Accept header submitted by the client.)
    #
    # Supposing you have an action that adds a new person, optionally creating their company
    # (by name) if it does not already exist, without web-services, it might look like this:
    #
    #   def create
    #     @company = Company.find_or_create_by(name: params[:company][:name])
    #     @person  = @company.people.create(params[:person])
    #
    #     redirect_to(person_list_url)
    #   end
    #
    # Here's the same action, with web-service support baked in:
    #
    #   def create
    #     company  = params[:person].delete(:company)
    #     @company = Company.find_or_create_by(name: company[:name])
    #     @person  = @company.people.create(params[:person])
    #
    #     respond_to do |format|
    #       format.html { redirect_to(person_list_url) }
    #       format.js
    #       format.xml  { render xml: @person.to_xml(include: @company) }
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # If the client wants HTML, we just redirect them back to the person list. If they want JavaScript,
    # then it is an Ajax request and we render the JavaScript template associated with this action.
    # Lastly, if the client wants XML, we render the created person as XML, but with a twist: we also
    # include the person's company in the rendered XML, so you get something like this:
    #
    #   <person>
    #     <id>...</id>
    #     ...
    #     <company>
    #       <id>...</id>
    #       <name>...</name>
    #       ...
    #     </company>
    #   </person>
    #
    # Note, however, the extra bit at the top of that action:
    #
    #   company  = params[:person].delete(:company)
    #   @company = Company.find_or_create_by(name: company[:name])
    #
    # This is because the incoming XML document (if a web-service request is in process) can only contain a
    # single root-node. So, we have to rearrange things so that the request looks like this (url-encoded):
    #
    #   person[name]=...&person[company][name]=...&...
    #
    # And, like this (xml-encoded):
    #
    #   <person>
    #     <name>...</name>
    #     <company>
    #       <name>...</name>
    #     </company>
    #   </person>
    #
    # In other words, we make the request so that it operates on a single entity's person. Then, in the action,
    # we extract the company data from the request, find or create the company, and then create the new person
    # with the remaining data.
    #
    # Note that you can define your own XML parameter parser which would allow you to describe multiple entities
    # in a single request (i.e., by wrapping them all in a single root node), but if you just go with the flow
    # and accept Rails' defaults, life will be much easier.
    #
    # If you need to use a MIME type which isn't supported by default, you can register your own handlers in
    # +config/initializers/mime_types.rb+ as follows.
    #
    #   Mime::Type.register "image/jpg", :jpg
    #
    # +respond_to+ also allows you to specify a common block for different formats by using +any+:
    #
    #   def index
    #     @people = Person.all
    #
    #     respond_to do |format|
    #       format.html
    #       format.any(:xml, :json) { render request.format.to_sym => @people }
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # In the example above, if the format is xml, it will render:
    #
    #   render xml: @people
    #
    # Or if the format is json:
    #
    #   render json: @people
    #
    # +any+ can also be used with no arguments, in which case it will be used for any format requested by
    # the user:
    #
    #   respond_to do |format|
    #     format.html
    #     format.any { redirect_to support_path }
    #   end
    #
    # Formats can have different variants.
    #
    # The request variant is a specialization of the request format, like <tt>:tablet</tt>,
    # <tt>:phone</tt>, or <tt>:desktop</tt>.
    #
    # We often want to render different html/json/xml templates for phones,
    # tablets, and desktop browsers. Variants make it easy.
    #
    # You can set the variant in a +before_action+:
    #
    #   request.variant = :tablet if request.user_agent =~ /iPad/
    #
    # Respond to variants in the action just like you respond to formats:
    #
    #   respond_to do |format|
    #     format.html do |variant|
    #       variant.tablet # renders app/views/projects/show.html+tablet.erb
    #       variant.phone { extra_setup; render ... }
    #       variant.none  { special_setup } # executed only if there is no variant set
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # Provide separate templates for each format and variant:
    #
    #   app/views/projects/show.html.erb
    #   app/views/projects/show.html+tablet.erb
    #   app/views/projects/show.html+phone.erb
    #
    # When you're not sharing any code within the format, you can simplify defining variants
    # using the inline syntax:
    #
    #   respond_to do |format|
    #     format.js         { render "trash" }
    #     format.html.phone { redirect_to progress_path }
    #     format.html.none  { render "trash" }
    #   end
    #
    # Variants also support common +any+/+all+ block that formats have.
    #
    # It works for both inline:
    #
    #   respond_to do |format|
    #     format.html.any   { render html: "any"   }
    #     format.html.phone { render html: "phone" }
    #   end
    #
    # and block syntax:
    #
    #   respond_to do |format|
    #     format.html do |variant|
    #       variant.any(:tablet, :phablet){ render html: "any" }
    #       variant.phone { render html: "phone" }
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # You can also set an array of variants:
    #
    #   request.variant = [:tablet, :phone]
    #
    # This will work similarly to formats and MIME types negotiation. If there
    # is no +:tablet+ variant declared, the +:phone+ variant will be used:
    #
    #   respond_to do |format|
    #     format.html.none
    #     format.html.phone # this gets rendered
    #   end
