Rocket/lib/src/response/mod.rs

//! Types and traits to build and send responses.
//!
//! The return type of a Rocket handler can be any type that implements the
//! [Responder](trait.Responder.html) trait. Among other things, this module
//! contains several such types.
//!
//! # Composing
//!
//! Many of the built-in `Responder` types _chain_ responses: they take in
//! another `Responder` and add, remove, or change information in the response.
//! In other words, many `Responder` types are built to compose well. As a
//! result, you'll often have types of the form `A<B<C>>` consisting of three
//! `Responder`s `A`, `B`, and `C`. This is normal and encouraged as the type
//! names typically illustrate the intended response.
//!
//! # Contrib
//!
//! The [contrib crate](/rocket_contrib) contains several useful `Responder`s
//! including [Template](/rocket_contrib/struct.Template.html) and
//! [JSON](/rocket_contrib/struct.JSON.html).
