So I just noticed that rails went on faithfully creating new sessions for each API request. I''d like to stop this behavior, but don''t quite know how. I am using edge with REST routes (api.resources). Is there something I can pass from there to turn off sessions for these accessess? I suspect it will take the form of: session :off, :if => something Any ideas?

In your controller, put: session :disabled => true On 11/19/06, Jake Janovetz <rails-mailing-list-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > So I just noticed that rails went on faithfully creating new sessions > for each API request.

With the RESTful stuff, the API and standard HTML rendering are all rolled up into the same controllers and actions, so something else needs to be done.

I think I found what you want. From the doc: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/SessionManagement/ClassMethods.html#M000102 See the last example with :if and Proc. params[:format] will give you the requested format, you can probably play with it to disable session.

I don''t understand, however, what is passed into that Proc. You''re saying I could do: :if Proc.new {|req| req.params[:format] } What class is "req" ? I''d like to look it up to see what method I can use on it.

Hey Jake,
I would assume that the proc just has to return true or false indicating
whether or not to create a new session.
so something along the lines of
session :off, :if => Proc.new {|r| r.parameters[:format] == :api}
or something along those lines.
HTH

What class is it? Where is it created? How does one put :format into the parameters hash? Can this be done from routes.rb ? Maybe this is incredibly simple, but it''s just not clear to me. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

One of these: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/ AbstractRequest.html If you''re using the RESTful routes in edge rails, a request of posts/ 1.api will set :format to ''api'' (as in the previous e-mail''s example). The route looks like this: GET /posts/:id.:format/ {:controller=>"posts", :action=>"show"} It all depends on how you want your API to be accessed. It''s up to you.

For the sake of posterity, I have my API routes setup to authenticate by a token: map.with_options :path_prefix => "/api/:api_token" do |api| api.resources :person api.resources :company ... end So my session disabling stuff is then: session :off, :if => Proc.new {|req| !req.parameters[:api_token].nil?} Thanks for all the help, gents. I think things are working now.
