I am running into a situation where I can’t ensure the proper sequence
of
Rack middlewares. I have two middlewares in my Rails 3.0.9 stack:
1- ExceptionNotifier
2- ActionDispatch::ShowExceptions
The first one is a
gemhttps://www.ruby-toolbox.com/projects/exception_notificationthat
notifies me (via email) of any unhandled exception thrown by my app.
The second one is to handle the display of error pages. The call methods
of
these two are straightforward. The first one calls its predecessor and
catches resulting exception, sends email and re-raises the same
exception.
The second one just enhances already available functionality in Rails to
render properly formatted pages. The second one does not raise any
exception and thus renders the response and everything is all right.
In an initializer, I have a code https://gist.github.com/4019271 (link
to
gist) that inserts the 1st one before the 2nd one.
But in reality, ActionDispatch::ShowException is always called first and
when I get an exceptional condition, the properly formatted error pages
are
displayed, but email is never sent because the ExceptionNotifier is
never
called.
Does that make sense? Anybody has any comment about how I can make it do
the right thing? (Call ExceptionNotifier first and ShowExceptions
later).

Kedar
