The type httpResult is used by workers to return the result.

Structure of httpResult is -

type HttpResult = {
    statusCode: HTTP_STATUS_CODE;
    responseData: any;
    contentType: MIME_TYPE;
    file ? : FileResultInfo;
    shouldRedirect ? : boolean;
};

FortJs provides some helper method which return result of type HttpResult. These are -

• textResult - used to return text result.
• jsonResult - used to return json result.
• htmlResult - used to return html result.
• viewResult - used to return a view.
• fileResult - used to return a file which will be rendered by browser.
• downloadResult - used to return a file which will be downloaded by browser.
• redirectResult - used to return a result which will tell browser to redirect url.

Example

Retruning a string using httpResult

import { Controller, defaultWorker, HTTP_STATUS_CODE, MIME_TYPE  } from "fortjs";

export class UserController extends Controller {

    @defaultWorker()
    async default () {
       return {
            statusCode: HTTP_STATUS_CODE.Ok,
            responseData: "This is default worker for section user",
            contentType: MIME_TYPE.Text
        };
    }
}

Retruning a string using helper method - textResult

import { Controller, defaultWorker, textResult } from "fortjs";

export class UserController extends Controller {

    @defaultWorker()
    async default () {
       return textResult("This is default worker for section user");
    }
}

You can see - helper methods make things easy and looks pretty cool.
