拜读了用 Rails 搭建微信公众平台 API之后发现，
params[:xml]这个办法在Rails 4里面已经被办掉了，于是就看了一下Rails 4的新特性发现XML Parameter parsing has been sent to a plugin.
http://www.rubydoc.info/github/rails/actionpack-xml_parser
A XML parameters parser for Action Pack (removed from core in Rails 4.0)
Include this gem into your Gemfile:
gem ‘actionpack-xml_parser‘
Then, add ActionDispatch::XmlParamsParser middleware after ActionDispatch::ParamsParser in config/application.rb:
config.middleware.insert_after ActionDispatch::ParamsParser, ActionDispatch::XmlParamsParser
//*********************************************************************************************
Then, add ActionDispatch::XmlParamsParser middleware after ActionDispatch::ParamsParser in config/application.rb:
config.middleware.insert_after ActionDispatch::ParamsParser, ActionDispatch::XmlParamsParser
如图:
Rails 4.0 移除了 XML 参数解析器。若要使用请加入 actionpack-xml_parser
