class Rack::ETag

Automatically sets the etag header on all String bodies.

The etag header is skipped if etag or last-modified headers are sent or if a sendfile body (body.responds_to :to_path) is given (since such cases should be handled by apache/nginx).

On initialization, you can pass two parameters: a cache-control directive used when etag is absent and a directive when it is present. The first defaults to nil, while the second defaults to “max-age=0, private, must-revalidate”

Constants
