Question

I’m using the respond_to and respond_with in a rails app, but in one use case I need to respond with just a text for just one of the resource formats (:json)… But I can’t find how to do this…

I want something like this (I know this doesn’t work)

def create
    ...
    respond_with(:json, render :text => "Successfully Done!")
end

Any Idea??

Thanks!

It seems that this may be what you are looking for:

def create
  respond_to do |format|
    format.html
    format.json { render :text => "Successfully Done!" }
  end
end
