Just wasted better part of a day coming up with (and then blogging about) a more refined approach for automatically routing RESTful controllers and thought I'd share. Note that I'm no Python expert and I'm a total web.py n00b so can't vouch for whether this is well done nor if it's particularly original, but hopefully someone here can benefit from it. Comments/corrections/enhancements/prior art references welcome on the blog (not sure if I'll be able to actively participate in discussion here).
http://www.codesuck.com/2012/07/automatic-routing-for-restful-webpy.html The TL;DR is with the autoroute() function given in the post you can write a simple restful controller class FooBarController(): *__metaclass__ = autoroute()* def GET(self, foo_id, bar_name): # .... and it will automagically be assigned a URL like /foo/bar/([0-9]+)/([A-Z])+/? --Ken -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web.py" group.
