Hello, Currently implementing a method dispatcher (e.g. a single URL that goes to different views based on HTTP method) is not feasible because it will break decorators.
For example: https://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2041/ In theory you could use middleware to store the request object inside the view callback using process_view, or use frame/locals inspection on __getattr__ from your dispatcher, but these are all very nasty hacks. It would be nice if Django either had a built in way to do method based dispatching, or if base.py:get_response() was modified to pass over the request object somehow to the callback (although that doesn't feel particular clean either). The use case for this would be a REST API, in theory I could move the routing functionality into a view and decorate those methods, but then the decorators aren't really in the right place and routing logic is moved away from urls.py, which also feels unclean. I'm not sure what my proposal would be at this stage, if anyone else is interested lets get a dialog going, Cal -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
