How to hide in staging environment unless I explicitly run authorize_request? about rack-mini-profiler

I tried to put this in my initialiser file:

Rack::MiniProfiler.config.position = 'right'
# Explicitly authorise in application controller
Rack::MiniProfiler.config.pre_authorize_cb = lambda { |env| false }

And in my application controller I have a before filter that runs:

before_filter :authorise!

def authorise!
  Rack::MiniProfiler.authorize_request
end

I am running in development mode and mini profiler never shows up. Any ideas?

I found an undocumented option that does what I want:

Rack::MiniProfiler.config.authorization_mode = :whitelist

Can you please add this to the usage examples for others that have a staging environment or any other environment other than production that requires more fine grained control?

I believe this may have been fixed by #239.

Yep, I think our documentation for auth modes is much better now.
