I am facing a problem, that might seem trivial in the eyes of a client, but I found that it's really not straight-forward to implement in CherryPy. What I am talking about are parameters that should be available in each URL and should be processed identically everytime.
I brought this up a few days ago in the IRC channel alongside another problem. A solution to the problem I described there was found. However, as I badly formulated my problem it still was not able to deal with the "global URL parameters" problem. What I am looking for is something like this: The user should be able to access the following addresses: http://domain/events/list?skin=default http://domain/events/show?id=432&skin=myskin http://domain/events/list http://domain/?skin=print So the "skin" parameter should be optional and accessible anywhere. I could go about and add add this parameter to each method, but that would be very tedious. And imaging you would want to add another global parameter after you wrote some code. You then would need to add this new parameter to each method. This is very error-prone. Is it not possible to write handler for these parameters in one central place? Or is it possible to write a handler for unknown parameters? I was thinking of adding a "**kwargs" to each method and then call a function with this dictionary as parameter. It would work, but it would still be a bit ugly.
