how to return javascript in Pyramid/Pylon

Question

how can I return some javascript code or a javascript file with view callables in Pyramid/Pylon framework?

Answer 1

You can do that as you'd do with any template/view callable. It's not that different. I'd still recommend setting the content type as such.

from pyramid.view import view_config

@view_config(name='javascript', renderer='templates/javascript.mako')
def my_js_view(request):
    request.response.content_type = 'application/javascript'
    return {... params ...}

It doesn't really differ from other views.
