Hi all

When I try to compile phoenix apps I’ve got following error:

1) test GET /odata/InsCharInfoSet (WebServer.OdataControllerTest)
     test/controllers/odata_controller_test.exs:4
     ** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching in Plug.Conn.resp/3

the action is:

  use WebServer.Web, :controller
  alias SapOdataService.Protocols.Odata
  alias SapOdataService.Odata.Query

  plug WebServer.JsonPlug, %{"content-type": "application/json"}

  def get(conn, %{"uri" => uri}) do

    conn
    |> send_resp(200, {"id: 1"})

  end

end

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

If you want to respond with JSON you could use json conn, %{status: true}

Yes. If you want to use send_resp for some reason, you need to send :iodata.

@kostonstyle always look at the documentation, it gives some good hints what you are doing wrong. In your case if you really want to use send_resp/3 instead of json, you need to have third parameter type as iodata, and you have a Map.

https://hexdocs.pm/plug/Plug.Conn.html#send_resp/3 and click on the “body” that’d get you to annotation that this should be :iodata
https://hexdocs.pm/plug/Plug.Conn.html#t:body/0

But stick with json function unless you have a reason.

Because I did not know json function :slight_smile:
