4
+ Rack middleware for iframe-transport hacks.
5
+
6
+ Get Rails to work nicely with [jquery-iframe-transport](https://github.com/cmlenz/jquery-iframe-transport/).
7
+ Post data to an iframe and retrive data from there is still the only reliable way to post file in a javascript application.
8
+
9
+ This middleware get Rails to work nicely with [jquery-iframe-transport](https://github.com/cmlenz/jquery-iframe-transport/) or other code of yours that exploit this hack.
10
+
11
+ What it does?
12
+ -------------
13
+
14
+ It wrap the response in a html. The original response is insert inside a `<textarea>` tag.
15
+
16
+ Since you can't get headers from an iframe post, metadata are exposed as `'data-*'` attributes of the textarea tag.
17
+
18
+ ```
19
+ > curl localhost:3000/api/2/account
20
+ {"message":"Unauthorized"}
21
+
22
+ > curl 'localhost:3000/api/2/account?X-Requested-With=IFrame'
23
+ <!DOCTYPE html><html><body><textarea 'data-status'='401' 'data-statusText'='Unauthorized' 'data-type'='text/html'>{"message":"Unauthorized"}</textarea></body></html>
24
+ ```
25
+
26
+ How?
27
+ ----
28
+
29
+ Something like this, its just a Rack middleware.
30
+
31
+ ```ruby
32
+ # config/initializer/iframe_transport.rb
33
+ require 'rack_iframe_transport'
34
+ Teambox::Application.config.middleware.use Rack::IframeTransport
