NAME

Catalyst::Response::Writer - Proxy over the PSGI Writer

SYNOPSIS

    sub myaction : Path {
      my ($self, $c) = @_;
      my $w = $c->response->writer_fh;

      $w->write("hello world");
      $w->close;
    }

DESCRIPTION

This wraps the PSGI writer (see PSGI.pod\Delayed-Response-and-Streaming-Body) for more. We wrap this object so we can provide some additional methods that make sense from inside Catalyst

METHODS

This class does the following methods

close

These delegate to the underlying PSGI writer object

If the application defines a response encoding (default is UTF8) and the content type is a type that needs to be encoded (text types like HTML or XML and Javascript) we first encode the line you want to write. This is probably the thing you want to always do. If you use the \write method directly you will need to handle your own encoding.
