Bertrand Delacretaz resolved SLING-1336. ---------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed NPE fixed, integration test added. > Let SlingPostServlet return JSON > -------------------------------- > > Key: SLING-1336 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1336 > Project: Sling > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Servlets > Affects Versions: Servlets Post 2.0.4 > Reporter: Vidar S. Ramdal > Assignee: Bertrand Delacretaz > Fix For: Servlets Post 2.0.6 > > Attachments: SLING-1336-2.patch, SLING-1336.patch > > > From http://markmail.org/thread/ic2752rha4iy2s2c > In many scenarios it would be nice to get JSON in response to a POST. You > could write your own post servlet to do that, but then you will not benefit > from the registered SlingPostOperations and SlingPostProcessors that are > executed by the default SlingPostServlet. > In the case of SlingPostOperation, an implementing class is passed a > HtmlResponse object when run(). The HtmlResponse object is pretty agnostic to > response format though, the only HTML related work is in the send() method. > Thus, it should be possible ot replace/extend/abstract HtmlResponse with a > more generic response object. The send() functionality is then moved to > SlingPostServlet, which determines which format to return based on these > criteria (in order): > 1. The Accept HTTP header - if set to "application/json" return JSON, > otherwise return HTML > 2. Possibly also an :accept form field, with the same meaning as the HTTP > header, in case it is proven that setting the HTTP header does not work in > all browsers > 3. The format of the posted data - if JSON is posted (see SLING-1172), return > JSON, otherwise return HTML -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
