You could have PrivateImagesController with `show` method
and you will get your images through /private_images/image_name.png
in `show` method
(check permissions)
-- send_file "#{RAILS_ROOT}/private_images_folder/#{params[:image_name]}"
send_file is really slow and will work only when there's not a lot of users requesting files
In Nginx you could use x-send-file option or something, which makes send_file work much better. I didn't try that though.

I'm trying to display an image (chart) that lives outside the public
directory in RAILS_ROOT/private.
The chart contains confidential information and so can't live in /public
or any sub-directories of /public.
The chart needs to be displayed from a partial. The first display of
the page containing the partial is an html render. Subsequently, the
user can select a different chart causing an ajax call which replaces
the content of the image-containing dom element in the partial with a
new chart image.
Any thoughts / pointers are much appreciated!
Best regards,
Bill
