res.ok()

This method is used to send a 200 ("OK") response back down to the client.

Usage

return res.ok();

Or:

  • return res.ok(data);

Details

Like the other built-in custom response modules, the behavior of this method is customizable.

By default, it works as follows:

  • The status code of the response will be set to 200.
  • Sails will send any provided error data as JSON. If no data is provided, a default response body will be sent (the string "OK").

Example

return res.ok();

Notes

  • This method is terminal, meaning that it is generally the last line of code your app should run for a given request (hence the advisory usage of return throughout these docs).
  • res.ok() (like other userland response methods) can be overridden or modified. It runs the response method defined in api/responses/ok.js. If an ok.js response method does not exist in your app, Sails will use the default behavior.

Built with Love

The Sails framework is built by a web & mobile shop in Austin, TX, with the help of our contributors. We created Sails in 2012 to assist us on Node.js projects. Naturally we open-sourced it. We hope it makes your life a little bit easier!
