I am trying to create an API and i need to return xml irrespective of the request format. now i have the following in my controller
def index @posts = Post.all respond_to do |format| format.xml end end i have a index.xml.builder '/posts.xml' works for me but not '/posts' i tried request.format = :xml which gave me a SystemStackError (stack level too deep):. why is it happening. How can i force the controller to render xml for all types of request ? so that i dont need to specify the format in the url which looks clean and tidy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
