in reply to Dancer2: respond to client while making its own async call

Hi Steve

It's as simple as:

post '/blorgle' => sub {
    debug('Entering delayed handler');

    delayed {
        my %params = params;

        flush;
        content '<html><body>ok</body></html>';
        done;

        debug('Sent response');

        # Do your async job here
    };
};

See Dancer2::Core::Response::Delayed, https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Dancer2/lib/Dancer2/Manual.pod#Delayed-responses-(Async/Streaming)

Hope this helps!

The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
