Add support for Accept header parsing and matching
Reported by Ryan Tomayko | February 1st, 2009 @ 06:38 AM | in 1.x
There is a simple, MIT licensed mimeparse library that handles parsing Accept header values and determining the relative strength of a given response content-type:
http://code.google.com/p/mimepar...
We should integrate this code into Rack::Response, Rack::Utils, or Rack::Mime so that we can provide good support for Accept header parsing in core.

http://gist.github.com/155055 - some parsers.
HTTP_ACCEPT parsers are based on webrick (parse_qvalues) and mimeparse.py (ruby version can
t satisfy some edge cases, EG, returns the last one of provides, when HTTP_ACCEPT header is a full wildcard, and so on).HTTPAcceptParsers::detect_best_encoding works like Rack::Utils::select_best_encoding, but a little bit faster.
All this code is not solid, of course, but could be helpful (I hope).
Anyway, it would be very nice to see rfc-ish HTTP_ACCEPT(_...) support in core. -
