RESTful routes?

[Lena Herrmann]

Hi!

I'm working on an app with Sammy / Couchapp / CouchDB. At the moment
you can create and view notes - delete and update are next (how
fancy).

I want to do the routes RESTful, so my ideal routes look like this:

index: get('#/notes')
show: get('#/notes/:id')
new: get('#/notes/new')
create: post('#/notes')
edit: get('#/notes/:id/edit')
update: put('#/notes/:id')
delete: delete('#/notes/:id')

(Yes, I've been working with Rails so far).

Are these names possible with Sammy routing? Because I can't seem to
have both the routes get('#/notes/:id') and get('#/notes'). It works
fine with get('#/note/:id') and get('#/notes'). But that's not really
nice.

Any ideas?

Hey Lena

That should all work in Sammy.js with one exception: delete().
Unfortunately delete is a keyword in Javascript so you cant have
delete() methods. The easy workaround for this is:

route('delete', '#/notes/:id', function() {});

Thats strange about the plural/singular routes. What version of Sammy
are you using? If you could share some code, I could probably help
debug better. As of 0.3 routes are added and looked up in the order
you add them, where before they were sorted by length.

Hrrgh,

upgrade to Sammy 0.3.0 helped, I was using an older version. It's
working now. Thank you anyway!!
