Rails 3 - Restricting formats for action in resource routes

问题

I have a resource defined in my routes.

resources :categories

And I have the following in my Category controller:

  def show
    @category = Category.find(params[:id])

    respond_to do |format|
      format.json { render :json => @category }
      format.xml  { render :xml => @category }
    end
  end

The controller action works fine for json and xml. However I do NOT want the controller to respond to html format requests. How can I only allow json and xml? This should only happen in the show action.

What is the best way to achieve this? Also is there any good tips for DRYing up the respond_to block?

Thanks for your help.

回答1:

I found that this seemed to work (thanks to @Pan for pointing me in the right direction):

resources :categories, :except => [:show]
resources :categories, :only => [:show], :defaults => { :format => 'json' }

The above seems to force the router into serving a format-less request, to the show action, as json by default.

回答2:

You must wrap those routes in a scope if you want to restrict them to a specific format (e.g. html or json). Constraints unfortunately don't work as expected in this case.

This is an example of such a block...

scope :format => true, :constraints => { :format => 'json' } do
  get '/bar' => "bar#index_with_json"
end

Rails Routes - Limiting the available formats for a resource

回答3:

You could do the following in your routes.rb file to make sure that only the show action is constrained to json or xml:

resources :categories, :except => [:show]
resources :categories, :only => [:show], :constraints => {:format => /(json|xml)/}

If this doesn't work you could try explicitly matching the action:

resources :categories, :except => [:show]
match 'categories/:id.:format' => 'categories#show', :constraints => {:format => /(json|xml)/}

constraints was not working for POST requests and then I tried defaults it works for all.

namespace :api, :defaults => { :format => 'json' } do
    namespace :v1 do
      resources :users do
        collection do
          get 'profile'
        end
      end
      post 'signup' => 'users#create'
      post 'login' => 'user_sessions#create'
  end
end

I was using Rails 4.2.7
