Description (last modified by )
The test client's json() method should permit the Content-Type of the response to contain structured suffixes, such as "application/activity+json".
This requires a regexp such as "^application\/(.+\+)?json"
.
See RFC 6838 for the specification: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6838#section-4.2.8
An example in the official registry: https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/application/activity+json
Issue #27622 provided a partial fix but allowed only vendor-specific prefixes.

Zach thanks for offer but it looks like there's already a PR that wasn't linked to this ticket

I'm sorry Simon, I didn't realize. I have put in a PR, we make the same changes except I added a note in the Docs too. What is the next step? Close/Merge?
If my understanding is correct it should just be the following changes:
Changing
JSON_CONTENT_TYPE_RE = re.compile(r'^application\/(vnd\..+\+)?json')
toJSON_CONTENT_TYPE_RE = re.compile(r'^application\/(.+\+)?json'
indjango.test.client
As well as adding some tests. I can take this as my first PR.
