How to nicely implement excelReponse, csvResponse or pdfResponse other than htmlResponse/jsonResponse?
Hello, nice project. Finally, I don't have to wander around files to get to the business logic. So, in my application I usually respond with HTML, JSON and sometime I also need to return an Excel file or PDF file. What would be the right approach here other than implementing if/else in the controller? Is there a convenient way to provide an array like
protected $responseTypes = [
"expectPDF" => "pdfResponse"
...
];
where the key (in this case is expectPDF
) is the method to call on $response
like $response->expectPDF()
. If that call return true, then invoke pdfResponse
on the Action class. Obviously the user should implement somewhere expectPDF
, either as macro (don't know if doable) or in the Action class itself.
