Can I do a wildcard with 'responds-to format' in Rails3?

Consider the following code:

respond_to do |format|
  format.js  { render :layout => false }
  format.xml { head :ok }
end

Now I know you can specify a whole bunch of formats, but is there a way to specify all other formats (in this case other than .jx and .xml) to save me from having to specify every specific format explicitly?

I guess I kind of want an "if-else" type condition. Is this possible with respond_to do |format|?

Solution

  • Good answer for you here: Can Ruby on Rails's respond_to return a line when the format is not supported? although they posed their question differently.
