#format(_view_path = nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the MIME type for the format used in the request.

GET /posts/5.xml   | request.format => Mime[:xml]
GET /posts/5.xhtml | request.format => Mime[:html]
GET /posts/5       | request.format => Mime[:html] or Mime[:js], or request.accepts.first

def format(_view_path = nil)
  formats.first || Mime::NullType.instance
end

#format=(extension) ⇒ Object

Sets the format by string extension, which can be used to force custom formats that are not controlled by the extension.

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_action :adjust_format_for_iphone

  private
    def adjust_format_for_iphone
      request.format = :iphone if request.env["HTTP_USER_AGENT"][/iPhone/]
    end

    v.select! do |format|
      format.symbol || format.ref == "*/*"
    end

    set_header k, v
  end
end

#formats=(extensions) ⇒ Object

Sets the formats by string extensions. This differs from #format= by allowing you to set multiple, ordered formats, which is useful when you want to have a fallback.

In this example, the :iphone format will be used if it’s available, otherwise it’ll fall back to the :html format.

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_action :adjust_format_for_iphone_with_html_fallback

  private
    def adjust_format_for_iphone_with_html_fallback
      request.formats = [ :iphone, :html ] if request.env["HTTP_USER_AGENT"][/iPhone/]
    end
end
