Rack::HTTP::Status

This gem provides exception classes that represent each HTTP status.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rack-http-status'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rack-http-status

# In Rails
class ExampleController < ApplicationController
  include Rack::HTTP::Status
  rescue_from Status do |status|
    render plain: "Status code was: #{status.code} - #{status}", status: status
  end
  def action1
    head NoContent # => HTTP 204 No Content
  end
  def action2
    raise NotFound # => HTTP 404 with "Status code was: 404 - Not Found" body
  end
end

Each status class inherits from Rack::HTTP::Status, and contains the following convenience methods:
