`setMime(mime)`

Allows user to set the mime type of a response.

Parameters

mimestringrequired

Mime type to return

Returns

An empty string — so it writes nothing when used inside #...# — and sets the Content-Type of the response.

Example

Mixed HTML (or any text file) with inline JavaScript between hash signs.

#{
    docly.setMime("text/css");
    write(include("assets/style/file1.css"));
    write(include("assets/style/file2.css"));
}#

Normal JavaScript, running in the browser or on the Docly™ server.

// This example returns an image file from API function

// Get a document to read embedded file from
let file = docly.getFile("test");

// Read bytes of an embedded file
// Note that file.Image1 contains the filename reference with the correct file extension
let embedded = docly.getEmbeddedFile("test", file.Image1);


// Set headers to make the bytes returned raw
//docly.setContentDisposition("attachment", file.Image1); 
//docly.setMime("image/jpeg");

//return embedded;
