So I'm working on my app which at times return XHR json responses, and I was a little curious when the client interpreted the json as a string. Of course, stupid me forgot to set the content-type to be 'text/json' in the headers using Express. DUHHHH.
The correct way of doing it should be like this (note: `text/json`).
app.post("/submitNew", function(req, res) {
var siteService = new site.SiteService();
res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type':'text/html'});
var siteObj = req.body;
if (siteService.isUnique(siteObj.url)) {
siteService.save(siteObj, function(error, site) {
rabbitmq.publish(site);
res.write(JSON.stringify(site));
});
} else {
res.write(JSON.stringify({error: true, field: 'url'}));
}
res.end('\n');
});
