Rack::CheckHttpMethodAllowed

Rack middleware to check HTTP request methods and reject ones you don't want.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rack-check_http_method_allowed'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rack-check_http_method_allowed

In config/application.rb inside the main configuration block, add the line:

config.middleware.use 'Rack::CheckHttpMethodAllowed'

By default, this middleware only allows through methods conforming to RFC2616 and RFC5789, which should cover most applications, since the rest are mainly for WebDAV support.

If you need to support a different set of HTTP methods, you can pass them in like so:

config.middleware.use 'Rack::CheckHttpMethodAllowed', ['GET', 'POST', 'SOMETHINGELSE']

and any methods not listed will be rejected.

Rails maintains a list of HTTP verbs that it can handle in ActionController::Request::HTTP_METHODS, (including WebDAV methods), you can use this instead like so:

config.middleware.use 'Rack::CheckHttpMethodAllowed', ActionController::Request::HTTP_METHODS
