Rack::Json::Api::Version

Extract JSON API version number from request headers.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rack-json-api-version'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rack-json-api-version

In Rails add this to your `application.rb' file

config.middleware.use Rack::Json::Api::Version, vendor: 'company_name'

Where vendor is your company name, without any dots

Request header Accept should be something like this: application/vnd.my_company.v1.1+json

In your controller you will have the version available by using

env['api.version'] # will return 1.1

# OR

request.env['api.version']

This gem will modify the Accept headers to application/json and keep the original value under the ORIGINAL_HTTP_ACCEPT key.

If the Accept headers contain application/json, env['api.version'] will return nil. In this case ORIGINAL_HTTP_ACCEPT won't be set.

In general, if the Accept header does not conform to this structure application/vnd.my_company.vn+json nothing will be done to the headers.
