I like the idea of these filters, and I can definitely see how they could be useful. Having only looked at your examples and the doc you provided, though, I do have a couple of questions/suggestions.
One, according to the documentation, you set up filters in Application.config. Would it be possible to use them in a per-servlet way? In other words, instead of setting the filters per instance in the config file, could I define a filter chain in the __init__ or awake() of an application's base class (some SitePage)? Two, although I'm sure I could figure it out by actually using the filters, you documentation does not quite tie all of the pieces together for me. For example, the first thing I though of when reading "The Code" section is "Where does the import go?" Where do I import the AuthorizerFilter that you set up in the config? I'd like to see a complete (but simple) example. I know that the docs are only preliminary, but that's my $.02USD. All-in-all, though, good job. It looks like a really handy tool to have. --John > > > 2) Attached is the start of a tutorial/how-to style doc on using filters > > I'm attaching it in rough form to a) give a teaser for folks on this > list who want to try filters out, and b) get feedback on whether or > not this is a useful kind of doc.
