Hey There,
So I am building an API with the built in REST functionality in CakePHP
but I am having a problem with it.
I am trying to halt a REST request after it has already been primed by the
default mapResources route feature? In the app/Config/routes.php I have
the following route for my customers controller / model..
Router::mapResources('customers');
I want to add some code to the beforeFilter() of the AppController which,
under certain conditions, should stop the current REST request and print a
different response.
Say I do a GET request to the customers controller...
http://localhost/cakephp/customers.json
This returns what I would expect, my customers list in JSON format.
However I want certain HTTP_X_ headers to be present in the request before
I allow it to complete so I have tried using the set method to create the
response I want and tried to send() the response like so..
$this->set(array(
'status' => false,
'message' => 'Some error message',
'errors' => array('this went wrong', 'that went wrong'),
'_serialize' => array('status', 'message', 'errors')
));
$this->response->send();
$this->_stop();
In this instance what occurs is that the customers.json response completes.
I want to halt the request at this point and return my error response.
Does anyone know a good way to do this?
Thanks,
Geoff T
