respond_with

 

class UsersController < ApplicationController::Base

  def index
    @users = User.all
    respond_to do |format|
      format.html
      format.xml { render :xml => @users }
      format.json { render :json => @users }
    end
  end

  def create
    @user = User.create(params[:user])
    respond_to do |format|
      format.html { redirect_to users_url }
      format.xml { render :xml => @user }
      format.json { render :json => @user }
    end
  end
    
end

 

我们经常看到类似上面的代码，现在，我们可以使用respond_with实现同样的功能。

 

 

class UsersController < ApplicationController::Base

  respond_to :html, :xml, :json

  def index
    respond_with(@users = User.all)
  end

  def create
    @user = User.create(params[:user])
    respond_with(@user, :location => users_url)
  end
end

 

你也可以给respond_with加上一些参数，例如:status或者:head等等。

 

 

class UsersController < ApplicationController::Base

  respond_to :html, :xml, :json

  def index
    respond_with(@users = User.all, :status => :ok)
  end
end

 

respond_with也支持block：

 

 

class UsersController < ApplicationController::Base

  respond_to :html, :xml, :json

  # Override html format since we want to redirect to a different page,
  # not just serve back the new resource
  def create
    @user = User.create(params[:user])
    respond_with(@user) do |format|
      format.html { redirect_to users_path }
    end
  end
end

 

最后来看一下:except、:only、:any的用法。

 

class UsersController < ApplicationController::Base
  respond_to :html, :only => :index
  respond_to :xml, :json, :except => :show
  ...
end

 

 

class UsersController < ApplicationController::Base

  def index

    @users = User.all

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html
      format.any(:xml, :json) { render request.format.to_sym => @users }
    end
  end
end
