This Gem is a shameless copy of cloudflare-rails, but for CloudFront
This gem supports Rails 4 and 5
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
group :production do
gem 'cloudfront-rails'
end
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install cloudfront-rails
The code gets the list of proxies from https://ip-ranges.amazonaws.com/ip-ranges.json
, updates the cache accordingly. This then whitelists these proxy ranges so that request.ip
and request.remote_ip
does not return these proxies.
For configuration
config.cloudfront.expires_in = 1.hour # Cache expiry for the ips
config.cloudfront.timeout = 2.seconds # Timeout for the http access
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
