#verify(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Verify the given actions so that if certain prerequisites are not met, the user is redirected to a different action. The options parameter is a hash consisting of the following key/value pairs:

  • :params: a single key or an array of keys that must be in the @params hash in order for the action(s) to be safely called.

  • :session: a single key or an array of keys that must be in the @session in order for the action(s) to be safely called.

  • :flash: a single key or an array of keys that must be in the flash in order for the action(s) to be safely called.

  • :add_flash: a hash of name/value pairs that should be merged into the session’s flash if the prerequisites cannot be satisfied.

  • :redirect_to: the redirection parameters to be used when redirecting if the prerequisites cannot be satisfied.

  • :only: only apply this verification to the actions specified in the associated array (may also be a single value).

  • :except: do not apply this verification to the actions specified in the associated array (may also be a single value).
