[TYPO3-mvc] Skip rendering of the view

[Henjo Hoeksma]

Hi list,

I am wondering if it is possible to skip the rendering of the view for some
actions.

Context:
I did an implementation of the vcard class from troywolf.com.
Since it is static stuff, I used the controller to fill the data.
Downloading the vcf works fine, and it seems to work fine at first sight.
Opening the vcf in a texteditor I see not only the rendered vcf text, but
the whole html of the page underneath it, with the note that no template
could be found. (Which I don't need in this case).

I am aware putting this in my controller might not have been the best
solution, but writing the syntax of a vcf card wasn't that either ;-)

I tried using the format="vcf" option and create an empty Vcard.vcf
template. To no avail.

Any suggestions on how to approach this nicely? Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Henjo
