One real use case example would be to rotate a basic auth credentials:
rotator.secure_compare!(‘previous_production_value’)
rotator.rotate(‘previous_production_value’)
rotator = ActiveSupport::SecureCompareRotator.new(‘new_production_value’)
It can be used as follow:
and allows you to rotate a previously defined value to a new one.
The ActiveSupport::SecureCompareRotator is a wrapper around ActiveSupport::SecurityUtils.secure_compare
