data

This is a utility for use with Single Fetch to return raw data accompanied with a status code or custom response headers. This avoids the need to serialize your data into a Response instance to provide custom status/headers. This is generally a replacement for loader/action functions that used json or defer prior to Single Fetch.

import { data } from "@remix-run/node"; // or cloudflare/deno

export const loader = async () => {
  return data(
    { not: "coffee" },
    {
      status: 418,
      headers: {
        "Cache-Control": "no-store",
      },
    }
  );
};

You should not be using this function if you don't need to return custom status/headers - in that case, just return the data directly:

export const loader = async () => {
  // ❌ Bad
  return data({ not: "coffee" });

  // ✅ Good
  return { not: "coffee" };
};
