I try to return a NamedFile in a HttpRespose with this function
fn response(x: NamedFile)->HttpResponse{
HttpResponse::Ok()
.content_type(ContentType::html())
.insert_header(("X-Hdr", "sample"))
.body(x)
}
The function get called in my index file and returns the HttpRequest
is this even possible???
i solved it by introducing a new function that converts the content of the file into a single string
fn open(x: PathBuf) -> String{
return fs::read_to_string(x)
.expect("Something went wrong");
}
and used instead of NamedFile a String the function looks like this:
fn response(x: String, y:Response)->HttpResponse{
match y{
Response::OK => {
HttpResponse::Ok()
.content_type(ContentType::html())
.insert_header(("X-Hdr", "sample"))
.body(x)
}
Response::NOTOK => {
HttpResponse::NotFound()
.content_type(ContentType::html())
.insert_header(("X-Hdr", "sample"))
.body(x)
}
}
}
