How to serve yaml file with sinatra? (not download)-CodePudding

I have a basic Sinatra app, I'd like to serve a yaml file so that it can be read by a gem via http.

I'm just able to download it:

get '/download' do
  send_file './en.yml', :filename => 'en.yml', :type => 'text/yaml'
end

But how can I just serve it without downloading?

Goal is that a gem makes an http request to obtain the content of this endpoint.

CodePudding user response：

Any reason you can't convert the YAML to JSON and serve that?

require 'json'
require 'sinatra'
require 'sinatra/json' # from sinatra-contrib
require 'yaml'

get '/download' do
  json YAML.safe_load(File.read('en.yml'))
end
