/// Trait implemented by types that send a response to clients.
///
/// Types that implement this trait can be used as the return type of a handler,
/// as illustrated below:
///
/// ```rust,ignore
/// #[get("/")]
/// fn index() -> T { ... }
/// ```
///
/// In this example, `T` can be any type that implements `Responder`.
///
/// # Return Value
///
/// A `Responder` returns an `Ok(Response)` or an `Err(Status)`:
///
///   * An `Ok` variant means that the `Responder` was successful in generating
///     a `Response`. The `Response` will be written out to the client.
///
///   * An `Err` variant means that the `Responder` could not or did not
///     generate a `Response`. The contained `Status` will be used to find the
///     relevant error catcher which then generates an error response.
///
/// # Provided Implementations
///
/// Rocket implements `Responder` for several standard library types. Their
/// behavior is documented here. Note that the `Result` implementation is
/// overloaded, allowing for two `Responder`s to be used at once, depending on
/// the variant.
///
///   * **&str**
///
///     Sets the `Content-Type` to `text/plain`. The string is used as the body
///     of the response, which is fixed size and not streamed. To stream a raw
///     string, use `Stream::from(Cursor::new(string))`.
///
///   * **String**
///
///     Sets the `Content-Type`t to `text/html`. The string is used as the body
///     of the response, which is fixed size and not streamed. To stream a
///     string, use `Stream::from(Cursor::new(string))`.
///
///   * **File**
///
///     Streams the `File` to the client. This is essentially an alias to
///     `Stream::from(file)`.
///
///   * **()**
///
///     Responds with an empty body. No Content-Type is set.
///
///   * **Option<T>**
///
///     If the `Option` is `Some`, the wrapped responder is used to respond to
///     the client. Otherwise, an `Err` with status **404 Not Found** is
///     returned and a warning is printed to the console.
///
///   * **Result<T, E>** _where_ **E: Debug**
///
///     If the `Result` is `Ok`, the wrapped responder is used to respond to the
///     client. Otherwise, an `Err` with status **500 Internal Server Error** is
///     returned and the error is printed to the console using the `Debug`
///     implementation.
///
///   * **Result<T, E>** _where_ **E: Debug + Responder**
///
///     If the `Result` is `Ok`, the wrapped `Ok` responder is used to respond
///     to the client. If the `Result` is `Err`, the wrapped `Err` responder is
///     used to respond to the client.
///
/// # Implementation Tips
///
/// This section describes a few best practices to take into account when
/// implementing `Responder`.
///
/// ## Debug
///
/// A type implementing `Responder` should implement the `Debug` trait when
/// possible. This is because the `Responder` implementation for `Result`
/// requires its `Err` type to implement `Debug`. Therefore, a type implementing
/// `Debug` can more easily be composed.
///
/// ## Joining and Merging
///
/// When chaining/wrapping other `Responder`s, use the
/// [merge](/rocket/struct.Response.html#method.merge) or
/// [join](/rocket/struct.Response.html#method.join) methods on the `Response`
/// struct. Ensure that you document the merging or joining behavior
/// appropriately.
///
/// # Example
///
/// Say that you have a custom type, `Person`:
///
/// ```rust
/// struct Person {
///     name: String,
///     age: u16
/// }
/// ```
///
/// You'd like to use `Person` as a `Responder` so that you can return a
/// `Person` directly from a handler:
///
/// ```rust,ignore
/// #[get("/person/<id>")]
/// fn person(id: usize) -> Option<Person> {
///     Person::from_id(id)
/// }
/// ```
///
/// You want the `Person` responder to set two header fields: `X-Person-Name`
/// and `X-Person-Age` as well as supply a custom representation of the object
/// (`Content-Type: application/x-person`) in the body of the response. The
/// following `Responder` implementation accomplishes this:
///
/// ```rust
/// # #[derive(Debug)]
/// # struct Person { name: String, age: u16 }
/// #
/// use std::io::Cursor;
///
/// use rocket::response::{self, Response, Responder};
/// use rocket::http::ContentType;
///
/// impl<'r> Responder<'r> for Person {
///     fn respond(self) -> response::Result<'r> {
///         Response::build()
///             .sized_body(Cursor::new(format!("{:?}", self)))
///             .raw_header("X-Person-Name", self.name)
///             .raw_header("X-Person-Age", self.age.to_string())
///             .header(ContentType::new("application", "x-person"))
///             .ok()
///     }
/// }
/// ```
pub trait Responder<'r> {
    /// Attempts to write a response to `res`.
    ///
    /// If writing the response successfully completes, an outcome of `Success`
    /// is returned. If writing the response begins but fails, an outcome of
    /// `Failure` is returned. If writing a response fails before writing
    /// anything out, an outcome of `Forward` can be returned, which causes the
    /// response to be written by the appropriate error catcher instead.
    fn respond(self) -> Result<Response<'r>, Status>;
}

/// Sets the `Content-Type`t to `text/plain` if it is not already set. Sends the
/// string as the body of the response. Never fails.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```rust
/// use rocket::response::Responder;
/// use rocket::http::ContentType;
///
/// let mut response = "Hello".respond().unwrap();
///
/// let body_string = response.body().and_then(|b| b.into_string());
/// assert_eq!(body_string, Some("Hello".to_string()));
///
/// let content_type: Vec<_> = response.header_values("Content-Type").collect();
/// assert_eq!(content_type.len(), 1);
/// assert_eq!(content_type[0], ContentType::Plain.to_string());
/// ```
