Problem with Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json about jsonapi HOT 3 CLOSED

To send out a 204 you could use:

use alsvanzelf\jsonapi\MetaDocument;

$document = new MetaDocument();
$document->setHttpStatusCode(204);
$document->sendResponse();

Or, just plain http_response_code(204), because the library doesn't do anything else either as there's no content to arrange for.

Btw, sendResponse() doesn't accept a http status code or body to send out, you prepare the body by calling methods on a document, e.g. $document->add('foo', 'bar') and then calling $document->sendResponse() without any required arguments.

Also, if you ever get into issues with the content-type (I did too some time ago as not all browsers supported it correctly), you can pass a custom one as one of the options to sendResponse(), for example:

use alsvanzelf\jsonapi\MetaDocument;

$options = ['contentType' => 'application/json'];

$document = new MetaDocument();
$document->sendResponse($options);

And yes, officially you should send out application/vnd.api+json. But for debugging it might be useful to use another, and sometimes the context forces you to use something else. Go for the practical approach.

Ok, Thank you so much!. I'll take a look to your code.
Btw, Is there any method to add headers?. I want to add a header for authentication

from jsonapi.

Not really no, only the content-type header. Otherwise you can send headers yourself:

// ... prepare your document

// send custom headers before sending out the response
header('X-Foo', 'Bar');
$document->sendResponse();
