I'm trying to do the simplest routes.py possible. I just want to get rid
of the application name -- EVERYWHERE. In addition, I'd like my main page
(index.html) to just appear without any "default" controller in the URL.
The problem is, the auth login dialog always includes my application name
in the "next=" field of the login form. Nothing I do seems to affect it.
My routes.py is pretty simple... It's the default example routes.py with
the following additions:
default_application = 'my_app_name' # ordinarily set in base routes.py
default_controller = 'default' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
default_function = 'index' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
BASE = '' # optonal prefix for incoming URLs
routes_in = (
# do not reroute admin unless you want to disable it
(BASE + '/admin', '/admin/default/index'),
(BASE + '/admin/$anything', '/admin/$anything'),
# do not reroute appadmin unless you want to disable it
(BASE + '/$app/appadmin', '/$app/appadmin/index'),
(BASE + '/$app/appadmin/$anything', '/$app/appadmin/$anything'),
#(BASE + '/appadmin', '/%s/appadmin'%default_application),
# do not reroute static files
(BASE + '/$app/static/$anything', '/$app/static/$anything'),
# reroute favicon and robots, use exable for lack of better choice
('/favicon.ico', '/examples/static/favicon.ico'),
('/robots.txt', '/examples/static/robots.txt'),
# route default app
(BASE + '/index.html',
'/%s/%s/index.html'%(default_application,default_controller)),
(BASE + '/about.html',
'/%s/%s/about.html'%(default_application,default_controller)),
(BASE + '/$anything', '/%s/$anything'%default_application),
# do other stuff
((r'.*http://otherdomain.com.* (?P<any>.*)', r'/app/ctr\g<any>')),
# remove the BASE prefix
(BASE + '/$anything', '/$anything'),
)
routes_out = (
# do not reroute admin unless you want to disable it
('/admin/$anything', BASE + '/admin/$anything'),
# do not reroute appadmin unless you want to disable it
('/$app/appadmin/$anything', BASE + '/$app/appadmin/$anything'),
# do not reroute static files
('/$app/static/$anything', BASE + '/$app/static/$anything'),
# do other stuff
(r'.*http://otherdomain.com.* /app/ctr(?P<any>.*)', r'\g<any>'),
(r'/app(?P<any>.*)', r'\g<any>'),
# map default application
('/%s/%s/index.html'%(default_application,default_controller),
'/index.html'),
('/%s/%s/about.html'%(default_application,default_controller),
'/about.html'),
('/%s/$anything'%default_application, '/$anything'),
# restore the BASE prefix
('/$anything', BASE + '/$anything'),
)
This seems like a pretty simple application of routes.py, and I would
expect it to be a popular use for it. I don't know anyone who wants their
root page to be festooned with the application name when it is constant
across every page in the site.
Warm regards,
Joe
