Webob "request" objects are semi-ephemeral in the context of WSGI. Pyramid creates one while processing, and if you're using pyramid_retry then it'll make a new one for each attempt. The "environ", however, is one-per WSGI request and state you put in there will survive for the entire WSGI lifecycle and can be shared with middleware etc that is not Pyramid.
The recommendation is to almost always store data on the request unless you have a really good reason not to. - Michael > On Nov 12, 2020, at 14:10, 'Jonathan Vanasco' via pylons-discuss > <[email protected]> wrote: > > I don't know about "correct", but I use `add_request_method` to attach a > custom object(s) with `reify=True,` and then store all the information in > those objects.
