txroutes
========

txroutes provides routes-like dispatching for twisted.web.server (it actually
depends upon the Python routes codebase).

Frequently, it's much easier to describe your website layout using routes
instead of Resource from twisted.web.resource. This small library lets you
dispatch with routes in your twisted.web application.

Usage
-----

Here is an example of how to use txroutes::

from twisted.internet import reactor, task
from twisted.web.server import Site, NOT_DONE_YET

from txroutes import Dispatcher

# Create a Controller
class Controller(object):

def index(self, request):
return 'Hello World!'

def docs(self, request, item):
return 'Docs for %s' % item.encode('utf8')

def post_data(self, request):
return 'OK'

def deferred_example(self, request):
request.write('Wait a tic...')
task.deferLater(reactor, 5, lambda: request.finish())

return NOT_DONE_YET

c = Controller()

dispatcher = Dispatcher()

dispatcher.connect(name='index', route='/', controller=c, action='index')

dispatcher.connect(name='docs', route='/docs/{item}', controller=c,
action='docs')

dispatcher.connect(name='data', route='/data', controller=c,
action='post_data', conditions=dict(method=['POST']))

dispatcher.connect(name='deferred_example', route='/wait', controller=c,
action='deferred_example')

factory = Site(dispatcher)
reactor.listenTCP(8000, factory)
reactor.run()
