Header Issue?

[Chris Boden]

Inside a view I tried to set the header, but it didn't seem to take:

<?php
$h = (int)headers_sent();
$k = Kernel();
$k->response()->contentType('text/plain');

echo 'Headers?: ' . $h;
?>

Header Result:
Content-Type:text/html

Content Result:
Headers?: 0

This is because headers are not sent immediately - they are just set on the Response object. The headers are sent in www/index.php after the module response has been processed, but not yet rendered.

Look at lines 161-162:

https://github.com/alloyphp/alloy/blob/master/www/index.php#L162

If you need to send headers manaully, just make a call to the "sendHeaders" method of the Response object.

Hi Vance,

The header_sent() was just a check to make sure I wasn't setting the
header too late.

The issue is Alloy seems to be over writing my contentType setting of
the header.

I set it to text/plain but Alloy output text/html (default).

Update the code block to this and see what happens:

<?php
$h = (int)headers_sent();
$k = Kernel();
$k->response()->contentType('text/plain');

$k->response()->sendHeaders();

echo 'Headers?: ' . $h;
?>

I'll look into other places that might be overriding this.

That worked, thanks Vance.

I don't think you need to look further into it...I think I figured out
my error. I tried to set the header in the view...while PHP had not
sent the headers yet Alloy had already done its part with buffering
and setting the headers. I was trying to set the headers through
Alloy after it had rendered its part but before PHP.
