[web2py] Re: DRY conception
from a coding point of view tablename=request.controller rows = db(db[tablename]).select() return dict(rows=rows) but the problem is that you have two controllers. Perhaps you should have only one.

For example: default/persons/index persons = db(db.person).select() return dict(persons=persons) default/trips/index trips = db(db.trip).select() return dict(trips=trips) How implement DRY conception in this case? I think I need create an additional class and pass a table name to this class. All work must to be done in this class and a result should return to the corresponding method. But it only my opinion. How to do it right?

but the problem is that you have two controllers. Perhaps you should have only one. I have thought about it. Unfortunately, I need sometimes show all our customers but at the next time I need view all them trips. I would be glad to do merge two controllers into the one. But I cannot figure out how to determine which of the tables need use in that, or otherwise case?
Re: [web2py] Re: DRY conception
def sections(): allowedtables = ['table1','table2'] tablename = request.args(0) if tablename in allowedtables: rows = db(db[tablename]).select() else: rows = 'You can't access this table' return dict(rows=rows) http://myapp/default/sections/tablename Is that?

That is, make the function the action you're requesting, and the argument(s) the object you're going to do it to. Or go ahead and repeat yourself; it's only a venial sin.
Re: [web2py] Re: DRY conception
For starters, I wouldn't get so hung up on DRY. Are the pages you are creating very nearly identical but with different data sets? Jonathan's suggestion sounds good: http://app/default/show/t http://app/default/show/tablenamerips http://app/default/show/p http://app/default/show/tablenameersons
