"you can easily do that, just by providing your own function to set up
the routes map. You can update the routes defaults by overriding the
setup_routes method of the base_config object in app_cfg.py."
Well, it's not that clear . setup routes() is a method of AppConfig.
If you just implement your own function in app_cfg.py it is never
called. You can subclass AppConfig and provide your own setup_routes()
method or you can create a custom setup_routes() function and assign
it to the original AppConfig before you instantiate base_config:
You will also need to import a bunch of stuff from tg.configuration
such as Mapper and config.
Once, I got that part right and my custom_setup_routes function was
actually called, it just did,'t work. I can't even get a simple hard-
coded path to work. Here is my custom_setup_routes() function:
def custom_setup_routes(self):
"""Setup the default TG2 routes
Override this and set up your own routes maps if you want to use
routes.
"""
#from dbgp.client import brk; brk(port=9011)
map = Mapper(directory=config['pylons.paths']['controllers'],
always_scan=config['debug'])
# Setup a default route for the root of object dispatch
map.connect('*url', controller='root',
action='routes_placeholder')
config['routes.map'] = map
I expect that the /prefix/foo URL will result in a call to the foo()
method on my RootController, but it doesn't. The standard object
dospatch works just fine, so /foo does get to my foo() method.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong and/or explain how to debug
routing and/or show a full-fledged example of custom routes in TG2?

Mark,
Thanks for the quick response. It didn't work though. My
RootController now subclasses tg.controllers.DecoratedController and I
get the following error even on http://localhost:8080/ (the root):
AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'decoration'
The code expects 'controller' to be an object with a 'decoration'
attribute, but in my case the controller is the __before__ method of
RootController:
>>> controller
<bound method RootController.__before__ of
<nine.controllers.root.RootController object at 0x99a3d0>>
Is it possible to post a fully working TG2 custom routes example? It
doesn't even have to be the entire project just the differences from a
standard quickstarted project.
Thanks, Carl

I think there was a bug with __before__ and the decoration object
that has been fixed in the last beta, what version of tg2 are you
using (you can check with paster tginfo).
I have not tried making the RootController into a decorated
controller, I'd try making a new controller and routing to that. I
won't have time to make a doc this afternoon, but I can try to look at
it tomorrow if you don't get it working before then.

Ok. I followed the code through the internals. I created a separate
controller derived from DecoratedController and updates the
setup_routes() function. The routing works just fine and returns
eventually my new controller. Then we get into the actuall object
dispatch and it looks like the TG piece and the Pylons piece don't
agree exactly on what's going on.
- In pylons/controllers/core.py the __call__() method of the
WSGIController is called
- The __call__() method calls _inspect_call() with the __before__
attribute, which is a function
- The _inspect_call() method after a lot of arg checks and other stuff
calls the _perform_call with the __before__ attribute
- The _inspect_call() method is implemented by TG proper in
tg.controllers.DecoratedController. This expects the passed in func
object to have a 'decoration' attribute, but the __before__ function
passed by Pylons have no such attribute, so we get AttributeError and
everything blows up.
Does it ring a bell? I can't figure out all the implicit assumptions
and expectations in the code. I can't even tell if there is a bug or
if I'm doing something wrong/missing some configuration step.
Thanks, Carl

I've had no problem while using custom routes; attached is the app_cfg.py file of a project which uses them. I didn't have to deal with DecoratedControllers or something else, just what you see in the attached file.

Hello Gustavo,
I tried it but it didn't work for me. Maybe I got the URL syntax
wrong. What URLs map to your custom routes? Also, from reading the
Routes manual I got the impression that variables are words with a
colon in the end (e.g 'prefix:'), but your routes look like regular
expressions.
Thanks, Carl

I have made a few more almost successful experiments. My
RootController now sub-classes DecoratedController as Mark suggested.
Before I do the subclassing I remove the __before__ and __after__
attributes from DecoratedController:
That almost works. The routing works and if my custom route is:
m.connect('prefix/{action}', controller='root')
Then it gets to the proper method on the RootController. The problem
is that now the pylons.request object has no response_type attribute.
It's not surprizing because the __before__ and __after__ methods are
probably there for a reason.
So, I renew my plea for a working example of custom routes in TG2.

Placeholders can be defined with {brackets} and :colons:, but the later is deprecated.
In my case I just wanted to force an integer in one of the variables, hence I used a regular expression. It's optional.
Cheers!
PS: What didn't exactly work? -- Gustavo Narea <xri://=Gustavo>. | Tech blog: =Gustavo/(+blog)/tech ~ About me: =Gustavo/about |
Hello Gustavo,
What didn't work for me is that if my controller I just subclasses
the BaseController, then it looks like the routing in app_cfg.py is
ignored. TGController calls a _get_routing_info() function defined in
ObjectDispatchController that does just object dispatch.

Ok. This is on a new quickstarted project with my changes for custom
routes. Here is the traceback and the changes to app_cfg.py and
root.py are bellow. If it's helpful I can upload the entire project.

I found a workaround, but it's not pretty. The solution is to override
the _perform_call() method of DecoratedController in your controller:
def _perform_call(self, controller, params, remainder=None):
# If not a decorated method just call it (needed for
__before__ and __after__)
if not hasattr(controller, 'decoration'):
if remainder is None:
remainder = []

Correction :-(. It doesn't really work. The Pylons request object
doesn't have a response_type attribute. This line in the controller
method raises AttributeError for 'response_type'
if pylons.request.response_type == 'application/json':
...
I'll leave it to the experts to figure it out. Please do.

Oops, I thought this was fixed because of Gustavo's message, but it
seems that it wasn't -- so I'm committing a fix to the 2.0 branch
tonight.
Basically the fix is to do this:
#Special case __before__ and __after__ so don't need to be
@exposed
if controller.__name__ in ['__before__', '__after__']:
return controller(*remainder, **dict(params))
inside of _perform_call so that __before__ and __after__ don't need
decoration attributes since they really are special methods that you
want called on every request.
I'd very much apriciate it if someone could verify that routes work
from the hg.turbogears.org repo. The whole routing sytem is different
here, but I think we'll need to apply the same fix there. I think
this is a missing test that we ought to add, since using routes is
something we want to encourage.

I haven't had a chance to check out the latest patch, but since the
thread of conversation has picked up again, I figured I'd share
something I wrote a couple days ago: http://simplestation.com/locomotion/routes-in-tg2/
I'm going to guess my solution is very similar to the solution in the
patch, but doesn't require updating TG itself.

The "'function' object has no attribute 'decoration'" error is not
fixed in the latest 2.0 from SVN.
It is avoided entirely in 2.1, because you can't directly subclass
DecoratedController, since it's not a WSGIController anymore.
What isn't addressed, however, is that the _perform_call(self, func,
args) method in TGController (inherited from ObjectDispatchController
in 2.0 and from Dispatcher in 2.1) still ignores the 'action'
parameter of routing paths. It still dispatches the request according
to object dispatch, even if a route has specified the action to
render. (This happens in 2.0 and 2.1). This is the behaviour that the
parents in this thread were trying to avoid by subclassing
DecoratedController.
I continue to work around this problem by using my RoutingController
(subclassing DecoratedController in 2.0 and TGController in 2.1)
[code: http://simplestation.com/locomotion/routes-in-tg2]. Which,
essentially, implements TGController's _perform_call() method, but
removes all Object Dispatch logic.
I think a superior solution would be to have TGController's
_perform_call() method detect if a route was active, and if that
route specified an action side-step object dispatch routing. Perhaps
by checking the values in args['environ']['pylons.routes_dict'].
Perhaps this change could go into 2.1, and something like the
RoutingController could go into 2.0, to prevent breaking anybody's
apps that already rely on the current functionality.
Thoughts? Is anybody else out there using Routes in tg2?

Turbogears 2.0.3 doesn't support Routes yet. Turbogears 2.0.4 will (a release looks promising soon).
For now, we've got support for Routes in the mercurial repository and you can install from there if you want support built in: http://bitbucket.org/turbogears/tg-2_0/
Controllers you want to use Routes with should then extend RoutingController.
But beware that if you stick with 2.0.3 there are some additional bugs with pagination and positional url arguments that you might encounter (these are fixed in the mercurial repository, and will be fixed in 2.0.4).

PS: I hope you don't mind that I've forwarded this message to the turbogears mailing list--but I bet you're not the only person with that question, and maybe we can help somebody else too.
