[Nitro] Redirecting to error action/method

[Lars Olsson]

Hi!

I actually use it in two kinds of situations:

1. Custom error handler

def error
     error, path = @context.rendering_errors[0]
     if error.kind_of?(Nitro::ActionError)
         # Tell user page doesn't exist
     else
         # Tell user an internal error occurred
         # Additional actions (logging etc)
     end
end

2. A simple way to "hide" pages from unauthorized users

def some_action
     if some_condition
         # Allow user to see page
     else
         raise Nitro::ActionError.new
     end
end


Kindly

/lasso
