[web2py] Re: Subdomain based on blog users in routes.py

[GoldenTiger]

I love playing with subdomains and multiple domains,
The * as dns entry is ok (be carefull with dns entries order),
you can do it in routes.py, but I see more apropiate on models or
controllers
If you don't success, contact me and sure I'll solve it

  Well it worked!! but with many problems in Ajax loading! Thank you, but any
  improvements??

  You might want to look at request.controller (and .function and .extension)
  to detect Ajax requests and do something else with them (depending on what
  the Ajax problems are). Otherwise all your Ajax requests coming from the
  subdomain will be sent to pages/blog, which is probably wrong.

[Farsheed Ashouri]

ya, It works, but it's not was i expected. for example my own blog *
rodmena.ourway.ir* http://rodmena.ourway.ir now redirects to it's correct 
path, but i wanted to stay at sub domain level while surfing.
my code is simple:

# Blogs subdomain redirection ===
host_parts = request.env.http_host.split('.')
if len(host_parts) == 3:
subdomain   = host_parts[0]
main_domain = '%s.%s' % (host_parts[1], host_parts[2])
red_link= '%s://%s/pages/blog?u=%s' % (request.env.wsgi_url_scheme, 
main_domain, subdomain)
redirect(red_link)
#

Btw, thx all for their answer, but i still need to solve it in routes.

Yes Anthony, I've read it 50 times! but i cant figure out this one. your 
code doesn't work. I test it few times on my local and main server. :(
 I am giving up!

Does doing a simple redirect not work for you?

if request.vars.u:
redirect('%s.mysite.com' % request.vars.u)

[web2py] Re: Subdomain based on blog users in routes.py

[Farsheed Ashouri]

So, Any reliable setting? Any alternative ways? probably 
with Apache settings?

Have you read 
through http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#Pattern-Based-System? Not 
sure if this will work, but maybe something like:

routes_in = (('http://$sub\.mysite\.com',  '/myapp/pages/blog?user=$sub'))

Have you looked in apache2/nginx redirect engine?

  So you say there is no way to solve this in routes.py?

  With the regex mode, perhaps.

 On second thought, I *think* that the regex router doesn't give you access to 
 the query string. So you might have to make the user part of the arg string 
 (part of the URL path) in order for the router to work for you.
