Andrey Novikov cb9d0e4864 Fix inconsistent results when parsing large durations and constructing durations from code ActiveSupport::Duration.parse('P3Y') == 3.years # It should be true Duration parsing made independent from any moment of time: Fixed length in seconds is assigned to each duration part during parsing. Changed duration of months and years in seconds to more accurate and logical: 1. The value of 365.2425 days in Gregorian year is more accurate as it accounts for every 400th non-leap year. 2. Month's length is bound to year's duration, which makes sensible comparisons like `12.months == 1.year` to be `true` and nonsensical ones like `30.days == 1.month` to be `false`. Calculations on times and dates with durations shouldn't be affected as duration's numeric value isn't used in calculations, only parts are used. Methods on `Numeric` like `2.days` now use these predefined durations to avoid duplicating of duration constants through the codebase and eliminate creation of intermediate durations.		2017-01-09 23:04:48 +03:00

= Action Pack -- From request to response

Action Pack is a framework for handling and responding to web requests. It
provides mechanisms for *routing* (mapping request URLs to actions), defining
*controllers* that implement actions, and generating responses by rendering
*views*, which are templates of various formats. In short, Action Pack
provides the view and controller layers in the MVC paradigm.

It consists of several modules:

* Action Dispatch, which parses information about the web request, handles
  routing as defined by the user, and does advanced processing related to HTTP
  such as MIME-type negotiation, decoding parameters in POST, PATCH, or PUT bodies,
  handling HTTP caching logic, cookies and sessions.

* Action Controller, which provides a base controller class that can be
  subclassed to implement filters and actions to handle requests. The result
  of an action is typically content generated from views.

With the Ruby on Rails framework, users only directly interface with the
Action Controller module. Necessary Action Dispatch functionality is activated
by default and Action View rendering is implicitly triggered by Action
Controller. However, these modules are designed to function on their own and
can be used outside of Rails.
