How to update content-length header after modifying response body via setBuffer(WasmBufferType::HttpResponseBody) ?

[orangetangerine]

Hi, I have a json response like {"foo": "bar"}. It's content-length is 14 I added a wasm to wrap the json response to sth like {"code": 0, "err": "", data: {"foo": "bar"}}. It's content-length is 44. I tried calling addResponseHeader("content-length", "44") and replaceResponseHeader("content-length", "44") in onResponseBody. Neither worked. And curl complains:curl: (18) transfer closed with 30 bytes remaining to read`.

How can I update content-length after response body is modified? Thanks.

No, you cannot update headers after modifying resposne body, since headers are already sent to the client.

However, you don't really need the Content-Length header, and you can safely remove it before modifying the body.
