Ajax controller responding slow - geirarnesen - 07-08-2024
I am experiencing that controller endpoint handling Ajax requests are responding very slow...
I've though mittigated this exit() just after handling the response to the client requesting the endpoint.
Code:
$this->output
->set_content_type('application/json')
->set_status_header(201);
echo json_encode(array(
'status' => 1,
'message' => 'ok',
'image' => $post['id'],
'jury_id' => $this->jury_id,
),JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);
exit();If I don't do the exit() in the controller function, it seems that too much is taking place in the post processing functions.
Any better way to approach this?
I am still on CI3!!

Hi Geir,
using exit() isn't always the best practice, as it can sometimes lead to issues with things like session handling or hooks.
A cleaner approach in CI3 is to make sure that any post-processing tasks are either optimized or moved to background jobs if possible. However, if you still need to stop the script execution, consider using return instead of exit().
Here's a quick example of how you can adapt your code:
Code:
$this->output
->set_content_type('application/json')
->set_status_header(201);
echo json_encode(array(
'status' => 1,
'message' => 'ok',
'image' => $post['id'],
'jury_id' => $this->jury_id,
), JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);
// Return from the function to prevent further processing
return;
