I use this to dynamically generate a menu from my controllers and
functions during development. Just replace the existing response.menu
assignment in menu.py in your app's 'models' folder:
import os
from gluon.myregex import regex_expose
ctldir = os.path.join(request.folder,"controllers")
ctls=os.listdir(ctldir)
if 'appadmin.py' in ctls: ctls.remove('appadmin.py')
response.menu = []
for ctl in ctls:
if ctl.endswith(".bak") == False:
filename = os.path.join(ctldir,ctl)
data = open(filename, 'r').read()
functions = regex_expose.findall(data)
ctl = ctl[:-3]
response.menu.append([ctl.capitalize(), False, '#',
[[f.capitalize(), False,URL(request.application,ctl,f)]
for f in
functions]])
