Thanks Dan. I am on MG3. That solution would require me to add an
additional view I think, which I was trying to avoid. I ended up adding
this to the controller:
<!--- if calling as an API, such as from QQ3, then only return 1 or 0
instead of redirecting to other events --->
<cfif YesNoFormat(arguments.event.getValue("quick"))>
<cfif session.UserBean.getLoggedin() eq 1>
<cfset local.output = 1 />
<cfelse>
<cfset local.output = 0 />
</cfif>
<cfcontent type="text/plain" variable="#ToBinary(
Tobase64(local.output) )#"/>
</cfif>
I would like to add a renderData() method, similar to what ColdBox has. It
would be nice if I could make this available all controllers. I'd rather
not modify the ModelGlue.unity.controller.Controller file, do you know if a
way I can inject the method into all the controllers? If I could
dynamically add it to ModelGlue.unity.controller.Controller before the
other controllers are instantiated, that should work.
Or, if I add a renderData method to ModelGlue.unity.controller.Controller,
would you accept a pull request to add that change MG?
