• Multiple representation example

  A representation is an output format for a resource. A single resource can have many output representations that can differ depending on the request data. Representations are built up as strings within the Response object and it is down to the programmer to implement the desired logic for choosing and building a required representation. This example produces three different representations of the resource data depending on the request accept header information.

• Smarty template example
