+For Rails 3+ applications, `secure_headers` has a `railtie` that should automatically include the middleware. If for some reason the middleware is not being included follow the instructions for Rails 2.
+
+### Rails 2
+
+For Rails 2 or non-rails applications, an explicit statement is required to use the middleware component.

-### rails 2
-
-For rails 3+ applications, `secure_headers` has a `railtie` that should automatically include the middleware. For rails 2 applications, an explicit statement is required to use the middleware component.
-
-```ruby
-use SecureHeaders::Middleware
-```
-
 ## Default values
 
-All headers except for PublicKeyPins have a default value. See the [corresponding classes for their defaults](https://github.com/twitter/secureheaders/tree/master/lib/secure_headers/headers).
-
-## Named overrides
-
-Named overrides serve two purposes:
-
-* To be able to refer to a configuration by simple name.
-* By precomputing the headers for a named configuration, the headers generated once and reused over every request.
-
-To use a named override, drop a `SecureHeaders::Configuration.override` block **outside** of method definitions and then declare which named override you'd like to use. You can even override an override.
-
-```ruby
-class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
-  SecureHeaders::Configuration.default do |config|
-    config.csp = {
-      default_src: %w('self'),
-      script_src: %w(example.org)
-    }
-  end
-
-  # override default configuration
-  SecureHeaders::Configuration.override(:script_from_otherdomain_com) do |config|
-    config.csp[:script_src] << "otherdomain.com"
-  end
-
-  # overrides the :script_from_otherdomain_com configuration
-  SecureHeaders::Configuration.override(:another_config, :script_from_otherdomain_com) do |config|
-    config.csp[:script_src] << "evenanotherdomain.com"
-  end
-end
-
-class MyController < ApplicationController
-  def index
-    # Produces default-src 'self'; script-src example.org otherdomain.org
-    use_secure_headers_override(:script_from_otherdomain_com)
-  end
-
-  def show
-    # Produces default-src 'self'; script-src example.org otherdomain.org evenanotherdomain.com
-    use_secure_headers_override(:another_config)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-By default, a noop configuration is provided. No headers will be set when this default override is used.
-
-```ruby
-class MyController < ApplicationController
-  def index
-    SecureHeaders.opt_out_of_all_protection(request)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-## Per-action configuration
-
-You can override the settings for a given action by producing a temporary override. Be aware that because of the dynamic nature of the value, the header values will be computed per request.
-
-```ruby
-# Given a config of:
-::SecureHeaders::Configuration.default do |config|
-   config.csp = {
-     default_src: %w('self'),
-     script_src: %w('self')
-   }
- end
-
-class MyController < ApplicationController
-  def index
-    # Append value to the source list, override 'none' values
-    # Produces: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' s3.amazaonaws.com; object-src 'self' youtube.com
-    append_content_security_policy_directives(script_src: %w(s3.amazaonaws.com), object_src: %w('self' youtube.com))
-
-    # Overrides the previously set source list, override 'none' values
-    # Produces: default-src 'self'; script-src s3.amazaonaws.com; object-src 'self'
-    override_content_security_policy_directives(script_src: %w(s3.amazaonaws.com), object_src: %w('self'))
-
-    # Global settings default to "sameorigin"
-    override_x_frame_options("DENY")
-  end
-```
-
-The following methods are available as controller instance methods. They are also available as class methods, but require you to pass in the `request` object.
-* `append_content_security_policy_directives(hash)`: appends each value to the corresponding CSP app-wide configuration.
-* `override_content_security_policy_directives(hash)`: merges the hash into the app-wide configuration, overwriting any previous config
-* `override_x_frame_options(value)`: sets the `X-Frame-Options header` to `value`
-
-## Appending / overriding Content Security Policy
-
-When manipulating content security policy, there are a few things to consider. The default header value is `default-src https:` which corresponds to a default configuration of `{ default_src: %w(https:)}`.
-
-#### Append to the policy with a directive other than `default_src`
-
-The value of `default_src` is joined with the addition if the it is a [fetch directive](https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-csp/#directives-fetch). Note the `https:` is carried over from the `default-src` config. If you do not want this, use `override_content_security_policy_directives` instead. To illustrate:
-
-```ruby
-::SecureHeaders::Configuration.default do |config|
-   config.csp = {
-     default_src: %w('self')
-   }
- end
- ```
-
-Code  | Result
-------------- | -------------
-`append_content_security_policy_directives(script_src: %w(mycdn.com))` | `default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' mycdn.com`
-`override_content_security_policy_directives(script_src: %w(mycdn.com))`  | `default-src 'self'; script-src mycdn.com`
-
-#### Nonce
-
-You can use a view helper to automatically add nonces to script tags:
-
-```erb
-<%= nonced_javascript_tag do %>
-console.log("hai");
-<% end %>
-
-<%= nonced_style_tag do %>
-body {
-  background-color: black;
-}
-<% end %>
-```
-
-becomes:
-
-```html
-<script nonce="/jRAxuLJsDXAxqhNBB7gg7h55KETtDQBXe4ZL+xIXwI=">
-console.log("nonced!")
-</script>
-<style nonce="/jRAxuLJsDXAxqhNBB7gg7h55KETtDQBXe4ZL+xIXwI=">
-body {
-  background-color: black;
-}
-</style>
-```
-
-```
-
-Content-Security-Policy: ...
-  script-src 'nonce-/jRAxuLJsDXAxqhNBB7gg7h55KETtDQBXe4ZL+xIXwI=' ...;
-  style-src 'nonce-/jRAxuLJsDXAxqhNBB7gg7h55KETtDQBXe4ZL+xIXwI=' ...;
-```
-
-`script`/`style-nonce` can be used to whitelist inline content. To do this, call the `content_security_policy_script_nonce` or `content_security_policy_style_nonce` then set the nonce attributes on the various tags.
-
-```erb
-<script nonce="<%= content_security_policy_script_nonce %>">
-  console.log("whitelisted, will execute")
-</script>
-
-<script nonce="lol">
-  console.log("won't execute, not whitelisted")
-</script>
-
-<script>
-  console.log("won't execute, not whitelisted")
-</script>
-```
-
-#### Hash
-
-`script`/`style-src` hashes can be used to whitelist inline content that is static. This has the benefit of allowing inline content without opening up the possibility of dynamic javascript like you would with a `nonce`.
-
-You can add hash sources directly to your policy :
-
-```ruby
-::SecureHeaders::Configuration.default do |config|
-   config.csp = {
-     default_src: %w('self')
-
-     # this is a made up value but browsers will show the expected hash in the console.
-     script_src: %w(sha256-123456)
-   }
- end
- ```
-
- You can also use the automated inline script detection/collection/computation of hash source values in your app.
-
- ```bash
- rake secure_headers:generate_hashes
- ```
-
- This will generate a file (`config/config/secure_headers_generated_hashes.yml` by default, you can override by setting `ENV["secure_headers_generated_hashes_file"]`) containing a mapping of file names with the array of hash values found on that page. When ActionView renders a given file, we check if there are any known hashes for that given file. If so, they are added as values to the header.
-
-```yaml
----
-scripts:
-  app/views/asdfs/index.html.erb:
-  - "'sha256-yktKiAsZWmc8WpOyhnmhQoDf9G2dAZvuBBC+V0LGQhg='"
-styles:
-  app/views/asdfs/index.html.erb:
-  - "'sha256-SLp6LO3rrKDJwsG9uJUxZapb4Wp2Zhj6Bu3l+d9rnAY='"
-  - "'sha256-HSGHqlRoKmHAGTAJ2Rq0piXX4CnEbOl1ArNd6ejp2TE='"
-```
-
-##### Helpers
-
-**This will not compute dynamic hashes** by design. The output of both helpers will be a plain `script`/`style` tag without modification and the known hashes for a given file will be added to `script-src`/`style-src` when `hashed_javascript_tag` and `hashed_style_tag` are used. You can use `raise_error_on_unrecognized_hash = true` to be extra paranoid that you have precomputed hash values for all of your inline content. By default, this will raise an error in non-production environments.
-
-```erb
-<%= hashed_style_tag do %>
-body {
-  background-color: black;
-}
-<% end %>
-
-<%= hashed_style_tag do %>
-body {
-  font-size: 30px;
-  font-color: green;
-}
-<% end %>
-
-<%= hashed_javascript_tag do %>
-console.log(1)
-<% end %>
-```
-
-```
-Content-Security-Policy: ...
- script-src 'sha256-yktKiAsZWmc8WpOyhnmhQoDf9G2dAZvuBBC+V0LGQhg=' ... ;
- style-src 'sha256-SLp6LO3rrKDJwsG9uJUxZapb4Wp2Zhj6Bu3l+d9rnAY=' 'sha256-HSGHqlRoKmHAGTAJ2Rq0piXX4CnEbOl1ArNd6ejp2TE=' ...;
-```
-
-### Public Key Pins
-
-Be aware that pinning error reporting is governed by the same rules as everything else. If you have a pinning failure that tries to report back to the same origin, by definition this will not work.
-
-```ruby
-config.hpkp = {
-  max_age: 60.days.to_i,   # max_age is a required parameter
-  include_subdomains: true, # whether or not to apply pins to subdomains
-  # Per the spec, SHA256 hashes are the only currently supported format.
-  pins: [
-    {sha256: 'b5bb9d8014a0f9b1d61e21e796d78dccdf1352f23cd32812f4850b878ae4944c'},
-    {sha256: '73a2c64f9545172c1195efb6616ca5f7afd1df6f245407cafb90de3998a1c97f'}
-  ],
-  report_only: true,            # defaults to false (report-only mode)
-  report_uri: 'https://report-uri.io/example-hpkp',
-  app_name: 'example',
-  tag_report_uri: true
-}
-```
-
-### Cookies
-
-SecureHeaders supports `Secure`, `HttpOnly` and [`SameSite`](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-west-first-party-cookies-07) cookies. These can be defined in the form of a boolean, or as a Hash for more refined configuration.
-
-__Note__: Regardless of the configuration specified, Secure cookies are only enabled for HTTPS requests.
-
-#### Boolean-based configuration
-
-Boolean-based configuration is intended to globally enable or disable a specific cookie attribute.
-
-```ruby
-config.cookies = {
-  secure: true, # mark all cookies as Secure
-  httponly: false, # do not mark any cookies as HttpOnly
-}
-```
-
-#### Hash-based configuration
-
-Hash-based configuration allows for fine-grained control.
-
-```ruby
-config.cookies = {
-  secure: { except: ['_guest'] }, # mark all but the `_guest` cookie as Secure
-  httponly: { only: ['_rails_session'] }, # only mark the `_rails_session` cookie as HttpOnly
-}
-```
-
-#### SameSite cookie configuration
-
-SameSite cookies permit either `Strict` or `Lax` enforcement mode options.
-
-```ruby
-config.cookies = {
-  samesite: {
-    strict: true # mark all cookies as SameSite=Strict
-  }
-}
-```
-
-`Strict` and `Lax` enforcement modes can also be specified using a Hash.
+All headers except for PublicKeyPins and ClearSiteData have a default value. The default set of headers is:
 
-```ruby
-config.cookies = {
-  samesite: {
-    strict: { only: ['_rails_session'] },
-    lax: { only: ['_guest'] }
-  }
-}
 ```
-
-### Using with Sinatra
-
-Here's an example using SecureHeaders for Sinatra applications:
-
-```ruby
-require 'rubygems'
-require 'sinatra'
-require 'haml'
-require 'secure_headers'
-
-use SecureHeaders::Middleware
-
-SecureHeaders::Configuration.default do |config|
-  ...
-end
-
-class Donkey < Sinatra::Application
-  set :root, APP_ROOT
-
-  get '/' do
-    SecureHeaders.override_x_frame_options(request, SecureHeaders::OPT_OUT)
-    haml :index
-  end
-end

+## Cookies
+
+SecureHeaders supports `Secure`, `HttpOnly` and [`SameSite`](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-west-first-party-cookies-07) cookies. These can be defined in the form of a boolean, or as a Hash for more refined configuration.
+
+__Note__: Regardless of the configuration specified, Secure cookies are only enabled for HTTPS requests.
+
+#### Defaults
+
+By default, all cookies will get both `Secure`, `HttpOnly`, and `SameSite=Lax`.
+
+```ruby
+config.cookies = {
+  secure: true, # defaults to true but will be a no op on non-HTTPS requests
+  httponly: true, # defaults to true
+  samesite: {  # defaults to set `SameSite=Lax`
+    lax: true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Boolean-based configuration
+
+Boolean-based configuration is intended to globally enable or disable a specific cookie attribute. *Note: As of 4.0, you must use OPT_OUT rather than false to opt out of the defaults.*
+
+```ruby
+config.cookies = {
+  secure: true, # mark all cookies as Secure
+  httponly: OPT_OUT, # do not mark any cookies as HttpOnly
+}
+```
+
+#### Hash-based configuration
+
+Hash-based configuration allows for fine-grained control.
+
+```ruby
+config.cookies = {
+  secure: { except: ['_guest'] }, # mark all but the `_guest` cookie as Secure
+  httponly: { only: ['_rails_session'] }, # only mark the `_rails_session` cookie as HttpOnly
+}
+```
+
+#### SameSite cookie configuration
+
+SameSite cookies permit either `Strict` or `Lax` enforcement mode options.
+
+```ruby
+config.cookies = {
+  samesite: {
+    strict: true # mark all cookies as SameSite=Strict
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`Strict` and `Lax` enforcement modes can also be specified using a Hash.
+
+```ruby
+config.cookies = {
+  samesite: {
+    strict: { only: ['_rails_session'] },
+    lax: { only: ['_guest'] }
+  }
+}
+```
