Unfortunately, I don't fully understand how the current Loc stuff is
supposed to be used. I like many things in lift a lot, but I want
first-class friendly URL's support. So I wrote it. It is used like this:
val entries =
Menu(Loc("index", List("index"), "Main")) ::
...
Menu(ParamsLoc("user-profile", "user"/Param("user")) ::
Menu(ParamsLoc("user-actions", "user"/Param("user")/"actions")) ::
Menu(ParamsLoc("user-message", "user
"/Param("user")/"message"/Param("to").optional))) :: Nil
LiftRules.setSiteMap(SiteMap(entries:_*))
Of course, I still use LocStuff:
Menu(ParamsLoc("one", "two"/Param("three"), If(Everything.right _,
S.??("no-no")))))
Then in a snippet I can use params like this:
def showProfile = (for (
id <- S.param("user");
user <- User.findByKey(id.toLong)
) yield
<table>
...
</table>
) openOr Text("User not found")
Actual templates for above locations are user.html, user-actions.html and
user-message.html. Notice, I could use user/actions.html, but current menus
don't let you have a folder with the same name as a template. For example
Menu(Loc("a", List("a"), "a")) ::
Menu(Loc("b", List("a", "b"), "b")) ::
work separately. But if you put them in one menu together and try entering "
server.com/a" url, you'll get confusing
Message: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: line 1 does not exist
scala.io.Source.getLine(Source.scala:280)
...
Is it a bug?
My solution is not ideal, but works for me and took only about 50 LOCs to
write:) If you are interested, I'll attach the code.
