Comment (by Paul McNett <p@…>):
This is hackish, quickly written, and tested for only 10 minutes or so but
I implemented custom status codes by monkeypatching the
django.core.handlers.wsgi.STATUS_CODE_TEXT dict like:
{{{
#!python
import django.core.handlers.wsgi as wsgi
class NextDict(dict):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self._nextdict = {}
super(NextDict, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
def set_next(self, key, value):
"""
The next time this key is queried, return the passed value.
After that, use the default.
"""
self._nextdict[key] = value
def __getitem__(self, key):
if key in self._nextdict:
v = self._nextdict[key]
del(self._nextdict[key])
return v
return super(NextDict, self).__getitem__(key)
wsgi.STATUS_CODE_TEXT = NextDict(wsgi.STATUS_CODE_TEXT)
}}}
And then when I want my response to have a custom message for it's status
code:
{{{
#!python
class MyView(request):
wsgi.STATUS_CODE_TEXT.set_next(200, "hello")
return HttpResponse("hello again")
}}}
I googled for similar ideas and didn't find anyone doing this, so I
thought it may give someone some ideas to develop this into a plugin or
something. It wouldn't add overhead to the default (and reasonable)
implementation, but would help some of us satisfy our requirements easily
and without adding too much extra overhead...
