Response
========
Use functions in `sanic.response` module to create responses.
Plain Text
----------
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/text')
def handle_request(request):
return response.text('Hello world!')
HTML
----
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/html')
def handle_request(request):
return response.html('<p>Hello world!</p>')
JSON
----
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/json')
def handle_request(request):
return response.json({'message': 'Hello world!'})
File
----
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/file')
async def handle_request(request):
return await response.file('/srv/www/whatever.png')
Streaming
---------
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route("/streaming")
async def index(request):
async def streaming_fn(response):
await response.write('foo')
await response.write('bar')
return response.stream(streaming_fn, content_type='text/plain')
See `Streaming <streaming.html>`_ for more information.
File Streaming
--------------
For large files, a combination of File and Streaming above
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/big_file.png')
async def handle_request(request):
return await response.file_stream('/srv/www/whatever.png')
Redirect
--------
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/redirect')
def handle_request(request):
return response.redirect('/json')
Raw
---
Response without encoding the body
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/raw')
def handle_request(request):
return response.raw(b'raw data')
Empty
--------------
For responding with an empty message as defined by `RFC 2616 <https://tools.ietf.org/search/rfc2616#section-7.2.1>`_
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/empty')
async def handle_request(request):
return response.empty()
Modify headers or status
------------------------
To modify headers or status code, pass the `headers` or `status` argument to those functions:
.. code-block:: python
from sanic import response
@app.route('/json')
def handle_request(request):
return response.json(
{'message': 'Hello world!'},
headers={'X-Served-By': 'sanic'},
status=200
)
