[Luc Larochelle]

Hi, what's the proper way to render a status code and a json message at the same time ?

I use Mojolicious Lite.

Best,

*$ perl -Mojo -E 'a("/" => {status => 404, json => {error => "not
found"}})->start' get -v /*
GET / HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: Mojolicious (Perl)
Content-Length: 0
Host: 127.0.0.1:41463
Accept-Encoding: gzip

*HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found*
Server: Mojolicious (Perl)
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 21
Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2018 02:46:28 GMT

*{"error":"not found"}*

well that's interesting for sure , but actually I'm using Mojolicious::Lite

What I mean is, how can I pass both types to the renderer ?

$c->render(status => 404, json => {message => 'error'});

Is that the proper way ?

Yep! And FWIW, "Every ojo one-liner is also a Mojolicious::Lite
application. <https://mojolicious.org/perldoc/ojo#toc>" Therefore,
technically, the solution I presented meets your requirements. :) I just
put the Mojolicious::Lite app into a ojo one liner for brevity in showing
code and output!

thank u so much for the confirmation. Btw I tried to replicate as per your example in the meanwhile and it works perfectly for me.
