Answer 1

This should work.

public class SendSMS : NancyModule
{
   public SendSMS()
   {
       Post["/SendSMS"] = parameters =>
       {
           return Negotiate.WithModel("Missing \"to\" param")
                           .WithStatusCode(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest)           
       };
   }
} 

For more information check the docs on controlling content negotiation.

Answer 2

You could always create an instance of the Response type and set the Body and StatusCode yourself. If you wanted to take a shortcut you could do something like

var r = (Response)"Some string that goes into the body";
r.StatusCode = 123;

return r;

Answer 3

This is the simplest way I've found:

Return from your Module:

return new Response {
                StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.NotFound, ReasonPhrase = "Resource not found"
            };

If you have problems with encoding it's better to use

return new TextResponse(HttpStatusCode.STATUS, "Text Responsé")
