URL Routing and Generation

The diva.routing module provides dispatching of requests to request handlers based on the requested path, as well as the generation of concrete URLs based on the routing.

Routing Configuration File

While routes can of course be set up programatically, a simple configuration file format is also supported.

A simple example:

home:           /                       -> geddit.controllers:index
feed:           /feed                   -> geddit.controllers:feed
info:           /info/{id}              -> geddit.controllers:info
comment:        /info/{id}/comment      -> geddit.controllers:comment
submit:         /submit                 -> geddit.controllers:submit

media:          /media/{filename:.+}    -> diva.static:directory
    path = "%(here)s/static/"
