🎰 Rack::Fraction

Middleware which lets you to execute arbitrary code just for a certain fraction of requests

Possible usecases could be: purging cache from time to time, doing A/B test for a fraction of users/reqests, probing something from the request, etc.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rack-fraction'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rack-fraction

The usage if fairly trivial: you disable the middleware or either modifiy the env or request:

# To disable middleware: pass 'modify: nil' (default)
Rack::Fraction.new(app, modify: nil) do |_|
	# disabled middleware
end

# To modify env: pass 'modify: :env'
Rack::Fraction.new(app, modify: :env, percent: 100) do |env|
  # middleware modifies env for 100% requests
  env << '👋'
end

# To modify response: pass 'modify: : response'
Rack::Fraction.new(app, modify: :response, percent: 50) do |*response|
  # middleware modifies response for 50% requests
  response = response.dup
  response.last << 'Bonjour!'
  response
end
