Pyramid: Hosting an Application Under a URL Prefix

[Wouter Overmeire]

Trying to find out how to host pyramid app under a URL Prefix.

Project was created using: 'paster create -t pyramid_routesalchemy',
using wsgi and runs fine.
Now i would like to add a url prefix. So that '/' really becomes '/
prefix/'.

As suggested in the documentation
https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/1.1/narr/vhosting.html#hosting-an-application-under-a-url-prefixand
i added a [composite:main] section in my .ini file.
Unfortunately this is not possible when a [pipeline:main] section is
present. The [pipeline:main] section was generated by the paster. I
tried removing the [pipeline:main] section but that does not help.

How can this be done?

You can rename 'pipeline:main' to 'pipeline:mypipeline':

[pipeline:mypipeline]
... whatever is in your [pipeline:main] now ...

[composite:main]
/prefix = mypipeline

Please read the PasteDeploy documentation for more information.

Using your suggestion gives an error: LookupError: No loader given in section 'composite:main'

But if i add 'use = egg:Paste#urlmap' in [composite:main] on top of your suggestion, it works fine.

So the fix i did is:

You can rename 'pipeline:main' to 'pipeline:mypipeline':

[pipeline:mypipeline]
... whatever is in your [pipeline:main] now ...

[composite:main]

use = egg:Paste#urlmap

/prefix = mypipeline

Thanks.
