Non-eloquent resource creation results in a 200 HTTP code

[robinstraub]

I am using some non-eloquent resources in my project.
When I POST new resouirces I get 200 codes instead of 201.
I did register a repository, implemented the CreatesResource contract and write a create() method implementation in my CrudResource.

Did I miss something ? Do you need a reproduction example ?

Hi! No you haven't missed anything. At the moment the response classes detect whether the underlying model/non-Eloquent object was created during the current HTTP request. For non-Eloquent objects this means you need to implement this interface on the class: https://github.com/laravel-json-api/core/blob/develop/src/Contracts/Resources/Creatable.php

If you don't want to implement the interface, you'd need to use the created hook on the controller to return a DataResponse that calls the didCreate() helper method as per these docs: https://laraveljsonapi.io/docs/1.0/responses/#create-resource-response

That'll work for the current release. I think though I should update the create controller action so that it always calls didCreate as that would make sense for that controller action. I'll leave this issue open to remind me to make that change.

Ok perfect, thanks for the wuick reply. I'll implement the interface in the meantime.
