I just re-read your message and saw that you were referring to
Zend_View_Helper_Json which does not exit and should work.
Did you mean to say Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_Json?

Chris, you saved me at least day from having to rewrite all those
Controllers and testing, thank you so very much.

Ahh, yes, this is the beauty of some ZF helpers, stuff just exit()'s =) It's
the same in Redirector action helper... never mind if I still have stuff to
do, it just terminates the script.
I wouldn't put logging into the Json helper, that's ugly. I would however
rewrite it, so it doesn't exit.
I replaced the Redirector helper with my own Goto helper, which does
something like:
--
$this->getResponse()->setRedirect($url, $this->getCode());
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('ViewRenderer')->setNoRender();
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('Layout')->disableLayout();
--
You can probably do something similar. Just modify the response and disable
viewrenderer and layout.
I would do the actual logging in a controller plugin (not helper!). That way
it's more pluggable.

Hello all, bit of a problem, not sure how to resolve it.
We've developed a RESTful JSON API using Zend Framework MVC. The API
makes heavy use of the Zend_View_Helper_Json object, each controller,
which represents a separate resource does the following when its done
processing:
$this->_helper->json( $data );
All of this was fine and dandy, until it was decided that we need
logging to record every request/response to the API. I setup a
BaseController which logs the request during preDispatch. Now, my
problem is that directly calling $this->_helper->json( $data ) sends
the response and exits, so, postDispatch never occurs. I've tried to
resolve this by extending Zend_View_Helper_Json as follows:
class BaseHelperJson extends Zend_View_Helper_Json
{
public function json( $data, $keepLayouts = false )
{
// ... Do some logging ...
parent::json( $data, $keepLayouts );
}
}
Then during init() I tried replacing the Zend Json Helper with my own...
public function init()
{
// Do some init...
$this->_helper->removeHelper('json');
$this->_helper->addHelper(new BaseHelperJson());
// Whoops, how do I reference BaseHelperJson??
}
This causes an error because addHelper() expects
Zend_View_Helper_Abstract... regardless, I wouldn't know how to
reference my custom helper as $this->_helper->json anyway. So my
question: is there any way to resolve this using OOP or Zend MVC magic
or will I have to go through each controller and replace
$this->_helper->json with something that plays nice with the
dispatcher?
