See Active Resource responses, how to get them for how to get the last response for the thread. You can then test the response code as needed:
class MyConn < ActiveResource::Connection
def handle_response(resp)
# Store in thread (thanks fivell for the tip).
# Use a symbol to avoid generating multiple string instances.
Thread.current[:active_resource_connection_last_response] = resp
super
end
# this is only a convenience method. You can access this directly from the current thread.
def last_resp
Thread.current[:active_resource_connection_last_response]
end
end
class MyResource < ActiveResource::Base
class << self
attr_writer :connection
end
end
myconn = MyConn.new MyResource.connection.site
MyResource.connection = myconn # replace with our enhanced version
object = MyResource.find(id)
response_code = MyResource.last_resp.code
