You can add them in a 'for' loop. (I assume you want the
'panel/guestbook' controller when the section is guestbook.)
for section in ['gallery', 'guestbook']:
map.connect('/panel/%s/{action}/{id}' % section,
controller = 'panel/%s' % section,
id=None, _minimize=True)
PS. Minimize is evil! It's too easy for a minimizing route to match
an unintended URL, which can lead to hard-to-diagnose bugs. It's
better to add extra routes for the minimized URLs.
You could pack it all into one route this way:
def panel_function(environ, match_dict):
section = match_dict["section"]
if section not in ["gallery", "guestbook"]:
return False # The route refuses this URL.
match_dict["controller"] = "panel/%s" % section
return True
conditions = {"function": panel_function}
map.connect("/panel/{section}/{action}/{id}", conditions=conditions)
I have no idea what effect _minimize=True might have on that.
