Sure, just make sure to enable X-Sendfile in Apache/Nginx, and then set it yourself:
def get @headers['X-Sendfile'] = "/full/path/to/file" @headers['Content-Type'] = "text/plain; charset=utf-8" end Or if you want Rack to figure out which Content-Type to send: file = "/full/path/to/file" @headers['X-Sendfile'] = file @headers['Content-Type'] = Rack::Mime.mime_type(File.extname(file)) + "; charset=utf-8" If you ever need to send custom headers, just use the @headers hash. // Magnus Holm On Wed, Mar 3, 2010 at 16:43, David Susco <dsu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey guys, > > A user would like to download a table dump as a CSV, what's the best > way to do this? > > ActionController has send_data: > > http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/Streaming.html > > Is there something similar built into Camping? > > If not, is there a way to override the response headers of a > controller to declare the response as something other than HTML (so > the csv isn't displayed in the browser)? > > -- > Dave > _______________________________________________ > Camping-list mailing list > Camping-list@rubyforge.org > http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/camping-list >
