Check out [sinatra-contrib](https://github.com/sinatra/sinatra-contrib) you are looking for other fancy Sinatra extensions.

## Installation

```ruby
# Gemfile
gem 'sinatra-advanced-routes', :require => 'sinatra/advanced_routes'
```

If you are serving a [modular application](https://github.com/sinatra/sinatra#modular-vs-classic-style),
register the extension manually :

```ruby
require 'sinatra/base'
require 'sinatra/advanced_routes'

class Foo < Sinatra::Base
register Sinatra::AdvancedRoutes
end
```

## Examples

### Route manipulation

```ruby
require 'sinatra'
require 'sinatra/advanced_routes'

admin_route = get '/admin' do
administrate_stuff
end

before do
# Let's deactivate the route if we have no password file.
if File.exists? 'admin_password' then admin_route.activate
else admin_route.deactivate
end
end

first_route = get '/:name' do
# stuff
end

other_route = get '/foo_:name' do
# other stuff
end

# Unfortunatly first_route will catch all the requests other_route would
# have gotten, since it has been defined first. But wait, we can fix this!
other_route.promote
```

### Route inspection

```ruby
require 'some_sinatra_app'

SomeSinatraApp.each_route do |route|
puts '-' * 20
puts route.app.name # "SomeSinatraApp"
puts route.path # that's the path given as argument to get and akin
puts route.verb # get / head / post / put / delete
puts route.file # "some_sinatra_app.rb" or something
puts route.line # the line number of the get/post/... statement
puts route.pattern # that's the pattern internally used by sinatra
puts route.keys # keys given when route was defined
puts route.conditions # conditions given when route was defined
puts route.block # the route's closure
end
```

Some of that fields (like conditions or pattern) can be changed, which will take immediate effect on the routing.
