i want to remove some headers from (ruby on rails) response

the header response:

  • HTTP/1.1 200 OK
  • Date: Thu, 06 Jun 2013 14:42:26 GMT
  • Connection: Keep-Alive
  • X-Runtime: 0.01900
  • Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
  • Cache-Control: private, max-age=0, must-revalidate
  • Server: WEBrick/1.3.1 (Ruby/1.8.7/2012-10-12)

You can try manipulating the response in your controller directly:

response.headers['Connection'] = 'Closed'
remove_keys = %w(X-Runtime Cache-Control Server Etag Set-Cookie)
response.headers.delete_if{|key| remove_keys.include? key}
