your app real address:
localhost/init/default/user/rhys
where in request is
/<app>/<controller>/<function>/args[0]
And you want to pass:
<appname>/args[0]
So you can try it in your models/0.py
my_controllers = ['default', 'other']
my_functions = ['index', 'user', 'contact', 'show']
if not request.controller in my_controllers:
request.args[0] = str(request.controller) # you can also use deep_copy
here
request.controller = 'default'
if not request.function in my_functions:
request.functions = 'user'
