class Athena::Routing::StreamedResponse
- Athena::Routing::StreamedResponse
 - Athena::Routing::Response
 - Reference
 - Object
 
Overview
Represents an ART::Response whose content should be streamed to the client as opposed to being written all at once.
This can be useful in cases where the response content is too large to fit into memory.
The content is stored in a proc that gets called when self is being written to the response IO.
How the output gets written can be customized via an ART::Response::Writer.

Constructor Detail
Creates a new response with optional status, and headers arguments.
The block is captured and called when self is being written to the response's IO.
This can be useful to reduce memory overhead when needing to return large responses.
