Interesting twist. Reminds me of the RHOX stuff..
users/id/<id>
users/name/<name>
etc. Damnit. Now you have me thinking again. That setup is a great
reason to keep REST and web controllers seperated. :/
The only problem with it is that I would love to be able to do this,
but so far I haven't come up with a reasonable way to say 'chain from
any of these controllers'. i.e. it would be really nice to be able
to do this:
sub base : Chained('/') PathPart('users') CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub id : Chained('base') PathPart('id') CaptureArgs(1) { }
sub name : Chained('base') PathPart('name') CaptureArgs(1) { }
sub email : Chained('base') PathPart('email') CaptureArgs(1) { }
And then be able to base later controllers on any of these, something
like:
sub edit : Chained('id','name','email') PathPart('edit') Args(0) { }
I would also be nice to be able to have chain elements that didn't
correspond to URLs, so you could do something like this:
sub has_user : Chained('id|name|email') NoPathPart CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub edit : Chained('has_user') PathPart('edit') Args(0) { }
I keep planning to dig into the dispatcher and figure out how to
implement this (and multiple PathParts), but never enough TUITs...
