Question

In an API controller that extends Controller_Rest

I have in a test function:

public function get_arr_exists($arr = array())
{
    if (empty($arr))
    {
        $this->response(array(), 400);
    }
    else
    {
        $this->response(array(), 200);
    }
}

I checked rest.php in the fuel core and it requires the first parameter not to be empty else it will return a 404.

But I’d like my app to check if the API responded with ok (200), or not (400). Does the Rest Controller automatically set the status?

Answer 1

Set the response status.

$this->response->status = 200;
