How can I skip an after_filter callback based on my response status code in Rails?

Question

I have an after_filter in one of my controllers that I want to execute only if the response status code is 200. Otherwise I want to skip it. Is that possible?

Answer 1

A quick and easy way is to put a conditional on your after_filter like this:

after_filter :do_something

def do_something
  if response.code == '200'
    # do something
  end
end
