  # # Action Dispatch SSL
  #
  # This middleware is added to the stack when `config.force_ssl = true`, and is
  # passed the options set in `config.ssl_options`. It does three jobs to enforce
  # secure HTTP requests:
  #
  # 1.  **TLS redirect**: Permanently redirects `http://` requests to `https://`
  #     with the same URL host, path, etc. Enabled by default. Set
  #     `config.ssl_options` to modify the destination URL (e.g. `redirect: {
  #     host: "secure.widgets.com", port: 8080 }`), or set `redirect: false` to
  #     disable this feature.
  #
  #     Requests can opt-out of redirection with `exclude`:
  #
  #         config.ssl_options = { redirect: { exclude: -> request { /healthcheck/.match?(request.path) } } }
  #
  #     Cookies will not be flagged as secure for excluded requests.
  #
  # 2.  **Secure cookies**: Sets the `secure` flag on cookies to tell browsers
  #     they must not be sent along with `http://` requests. Enabled by default.
  #     Set `config.ssl_options` with `secure_cookies: false` to disable this
  #     feature.
  #
  # 3.  **HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)**: Tells the browser to remember
  #     this site as TLS-only and automatically redirect non-TLS requests. Enabled
  #     by default. Configure `config.ssl_options` with `hsts: false` to disable.
  #
  #     Set `config.ssl_options` with `hsts: { ... }` to configure HSTS:
  #
  #     *   `expires`: How long, in seconds, these settings will stick. The
  #         minimum required to qualify for browser preload lists is 1 year.
  #         Defaults to 2 years (recommended).
  #
  #     *   `subdomains`: Set to `true` to tell the browser to apply these
  #         settings to all subdomains. This protects your cookies from
  #         interception by a vulnerable site on a subdomain. Defaults to `true`.
  #
  #     *   `preload`: Advertise that this site may be included in browsers'
  #         preloaded HSTS lists. HSTS protects your site on every visit *except
  #         the first visit* since it hasn't seen your HSTS header yet. To close
  #         this gap, browser vendors include a baked-in list of HSTS-enabled
  #         sites. Go to https://hstspreload.org to submit your site for
  #         inclusion. Defaults to `false`.
  #
  #
  #     To turn off HSTS, omitting the header is not enough. Browsers will
  #     remember the original HSTS directive until it expires. Instead, use the
  #     header to tell browsers to expire HSTS immediately. Setting `hsts: false`
  #     is a shortcut for `hsts: { expires: 0 }`.
  #
  class SSL
    # :stopdoc: Default to 2 years as recommended on hstspreload.org.
