class Marten::Middleware::MethodOverride

Overview

Overrides the HTTP method of a request.

This middleware overrides the HTTP method of a incoming request that include a _method field (in form data or URL-encoded data) or a X-Http-Method-Override header, enabling the use of HTTP methods beyond GET and POST in HTML forms.

For example a POST request with _method=DELETE in its body would be treated as a DELETE request.

Instance Method Detail

def call(request : Marten::HTTP::Request, get_response : Proc(Marten::HTTP::Response)) : Marten::HTTP::Response #
Description copied from class Marten::Middleware

Calls the middleware for a given HTTP request and returns a HTTP response.

This method must be implemented by subclasses: it takes a request argument (the current HTTP request) and a get_response proc that allows to get the final response. This proc might actually call the next middleware in the chain of configured middlewares, or the final matched handler. That way, the current middleware have the ability to intercept any incoming request and the associated response, and to modify them if applicable.
