.parse_nested_query(qs, d = nil) ⇒ Object







parse_nested_query expands a query string into structural types. Supported types are Arrays, Hashes and basic value types. It is possible to supply query strings with parameters of conflicting types, in this case a ParameterTypeError is raised. Users are encouraged to return a 400 in this case.

  return params.to_params_hash
rescue ArgumentError => e
  raise InvalidParameterError, e.message
end












.parse_query(qs, d = nil, &unescaper) ⇒ Object







Stolen from Mongrel, with some small modifications: Parses a query string by breaking it up at the ‘&’ and ‘;’ characters. You can also use this to parse cookies by changing the characters used in the second parameter (which defaults to ‘&;’).

.rfc2109(time) ⇒ Object







Modified version of stdlib time.rb Time#rfc2822 to use ‘%d-%b-%Y’ instead of ‘% %b %Y’. It assumes that the time is in GMT to comply to the RFC 2109.


NOTE: I’m not sure the RFC says it requires GMT, but is ambiguous enough that I’m certain someone implemented only that option. Do not use %a and %b from Time.strptime, it would use localized names for weekday and month.

.secure_compare(a, b) ⇒ Object







Constant time string comparison.
