How to remove Set-Cookie header from answer in rails 3?

Question

I have some actions that respond with static content. I also need to cache them on the client.

A similar question was asked in the past for rails 2

Is it possible to omit the set-cookie header from a response in Rails 2.3?

Answer 1

Use the built-in option.

env['rack.session.options'][:skip] = true or request.session_options[:skip] = true 

or in older versions use this

 env['rack.session.options'][:defer] = true or request.session_options[:defer] = true 

The documentation can be found here http://rack.rubyforge.org/doc/Rack/Session/Abstract/ID.html

Answer 2

Try the following: Remove the encoding from the Rails content type or http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html#setting-custom-headers

Hope this helps.
