You could use a method which binds the content type into the scope of the
jsonfiy decorator. You effectively have a closure,
def jsonify(content_type='application/json'):
def jsonify_decorator(fn, *args, **kwars):
response.headers['content_type'] = content_type
# implementation of jsonify goes in here
return simplejson.dumps(result)
return jsonify_decorator
This could also be used to pass in the encoding function into jsonify, so users
can specify an alternate to simplejson.
When using the decorator you'd specify
@jsonify(content_type='text/plain')
def foo_method():
pass
or
@jsonfiy
def bar_method():
pass
