i've been scratching my head about how to do this with Routes but i'm beginning to think it's not possible
what i want to do is compute the controller value based on (dynamic parts) of the requested url - for example, if the requested url is / users/[user]/account/[account], i'd like to be able to provide Routes with a function to compute the controller value based on the values of 'user' and 'account' nothing i've seen in this group or in the Routes documentation says this isn't possible - on the other hand, i haven't been able to find any examples of how this might be accomplished either assuming that Routes doesn't support this, the only other approach i think might work is to use the paste.recursive module as described in this post: http://groups.google.com/group/pylons-discuss/browse_frm/thread/2dcc9af2e051330a/33a7e67ec195548a?lnk=gst&q=redirect&rnum=2#33a7e67ec195548a using this approach, the idea would be to have Routes direct the request to a default controller and then the default controller would self-redirect to the computed controller however the post specifies that to make this work the redirecting controller cannot inherit from pylons.Controller - what i don't understand is what the redirecting controller should look like if it can't inherit from pylons.Controller - can anybody provide a simple example? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
