1384842 - Support for application/hal+json

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: JSON Viewer, defect, P3)

Description

[Nicolas Chevobbe [:nchevobbe][PTO - back on October 21]]

_kud reported on Slack that the JSON Viewer does not render JSON served with this content type (http://stateless.co/hal_specification.html).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to https://nippy-share.glitch.me/
2. Click the "Show JSON HAL"

Expected results:
The JSON is shown in the tab

Actual results:
A download dialog appears.

Adding `application/hal+json` in http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/search?q=const+JSON_TYPES+%3D+%5B%22application%2Fjson%22%2C+%22application%2Fmanifest%2Bjson%22%5D%3B&case=true&regexp=false&path=devtools should add support for this type in the JSON Viewer.

Also see bug 1258906. Maybe all application/whatever+json should load the JSON Viewer?
