Hi all, Just trying to give back (or a shameless plug - you decide) Months ago (last year really) I implemented a regular expression action mapper similar to Django's URL dispatcher.
Given this regex.mapping file listProduct::^/products$ showProduct:entityId:^/product/([0-9]+)$ showProduct:productName:^/product/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)$ deleteAttributeProductAdmin:entityId,entityType,attributeId:^/admin/product/([0-9]+)/delete/(type|colour|size)/([0-9]+)$ Given a URL the regex action mapper will search through its list (in order) for a match (the patterns are compiled so it's fast). Therefore /pepperviolet/products will invoke the listProduct action /pepperviolet/product/89 will assign 89 to the variable entityId and call showProduct /pepperviolet/product/Sony_Bravia will assign "Sony_Bravia" to productName and call showProduct /pepperviolet/admin/product/999/delete/type/77 will do entityId = 999, entityType = "type" and attributeId = 77 and call deleteAttributeProductAdmin It is hosted at http://code.google.com/p/pepperviolet/ I'm not sure what's the state of RESTful style mapping in Struts2 now, but if just 1 person finds this useful I'm happy already. Feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
