Using respond_with method ignores meta data about acts_as_api

[fabrik42]

Hi,

sorry but I can not confirm this. We have specs that cover both kinds of controllers and I also tried to reproduce it manually, but everything seems to work fine.

This is the controller I tested:

class RespondWithUsersController < ApplicationController

  respond_to :json, :xml

  self.responder = ActsAsApi::Responder

  def index
    @users = User.where("").all
    meta_hash = { :page => 1, :total => 999 }
    respond_with @users, :api_template => :name_only, :root => :users, :meta => meta_hash    
  end

end

It produces:

{
    "page": 1,
    "total": 999,
    "users": [
        {
            "first_name": "Me"
        },
        {
            "first_name": "Me2"
        }
    ]
}

Can you provide a more specific example or even a rspec test, so I can reproduce the problem?

Best,

Chris :)

Is there anything left to say regarding this issue?
If not, I'm closing it for now...

Hello,

I have exactly the same issue.
When trying to add meta using respond_with, nothing appears in the body response.
However, while using render_for_api, it works successfully...

Here is the code :
class ApiController < ApplicationController
self.responder = ActsAsApi::Responder
respond_to :json, :xml
end

class Api::V1::ProjectsController < ApiController
def update
if @project.update_attributes(params[:project])
meta = { :message => "L'histoire a bien ete mise a jour", :success => true }
respond_to do |format|
format.json { render_for_api :public, :json => @project, :meta => meta, :status => :created }
format.xml { render_for_api :public, :xml => @project, :meta => meta, :status => :created }
end
# respond_with(@project, :meta => meta, :api_template => :public, :status => :created)
end
end
end

Cheers
