NAME

Catalyst::Response - stores output responding to the current client request

SYNOPSIS

     $res = $c->response;
     $res->body;
     $res->content_encoding;
     $res->content_length;
     $res->content_type;
     $res->cookies;
     $res->header;
     $res->headers;
     $res->output;
     $res->redirect;
     $res->status;
     $res->write;
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This is the Catalyst Response class, which provides methods for responding to the current client request. The appropriate Catalyst::Engine for your environment will turn the Catalyst::Response into a HTTP Response and return it to the client.

METHODS


$res->body(<$text|$fh|$iohandle_object)


$res->body(<$text|$fh|$iohandle_object)

     $c->response->body('Catalyst rocks!');
 
 

Sets or returns the output (text or binary data). If you are returning a large body, you might want to use a IO::Handle type of object (Something that implements the read method in the same fashion), or a filehandle GLOB. Catalyst will write it piece by piece into the response.

$res->content_encoding


$res->content_encoding

Shortcut for $res->headers->content_encoding.

$res->content_length


$res->content_length

Shortcut for $res->headers->content_length.

$res->content_type


$res->content_type

Shortcut for $res->headers->content_type.

This value is typically set by your view or plugin. For example, Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple will guess the mime type based on the file it found, while Catalyst::View::TT defaults to "text/html".

$res->cookies


$res->cookies

Returns a reference to a hash containing cookies to be set. The keys of the hash are the cookies' names, and their corresponding values are hash references used to construct a CGI::Cookie object.

     $c->response->cookies->{foo} = { value => '123' };
 
 

The keys of the hash reference on the right correspond to the CGI::Cookie parameters of the same name, except they are used without a leading dash. Possible parameters are:

value
expires
domain
path
secure

$res->header


$res->header

Shortcut for $res->headers->header.

$res->headers


$res->headers

Returns an HTTP::Headers object, which can be used to set headers.

     $c->response->headers->header( 'X-Catalyst' => $Catalyst::VERSION );
 
 

$res->output


$res->output

Alias for $res->body.

$res->redirect( $url, $status )


$res->redirect( $url, $status )

Causes the response to redirect to the specified URL. The default status is 302.

     $c->response->redirect( 'http://slashdot.org' );
     $c->response->redirect( 'http://slashdot.org', 307 );
 
 

This is a convenience method that sets the Location header to the redirect destination, and then sets the response status. You will want to " return; " or " $c-"detach() > to interrupt the normal processing flow if you want the redirect to occur straight away.

$res->status


$res->status

Sets or returns the HTTP status.

     $c->response->status(404);
 
 

$res->write( $data )


$res->write( $data )

Writes $data to the output stream.
