[Dancer-users] send_file Content-Disposition

[Matthew Vickers]

Hi All, 

I was having terrible trouble using send_file and the Content-Disposition header. I found that I needed to set the Content-Disposition header manually in the reponse object returned from send_file. 

get '/myfile' => sub { 
my $response = send_file('/some/file.jpg'); 
$response->header('Content-Disposition', "attachment; filename=some_other_file.jpg"); 
return $response; 
} 

Although this works and I have no problems doing it, it seems counter intuative. I would rather do: 

get '/myfile' => sub { 
header "Content-Disposition" => "attachment; filename=some_other_file.jpg" ; 
send_file('/some/file.jpg'); 
} 

In the highly likely event I am doing something wrong can someone let me know ? 

Cheers 

Matt.
