routing

[Roelof Wobben]

Hello,

In all tutorials there is mentioned this ;

Root page maps to index.erl

http://localhost:8000/ ->  index.erl

Where and how does this mapping take place.

Hi Roelof,

This is done in Nitrogen's dynamic_route_handler
(https://github.com/nitrogen/nitrogen_core/blob/master/src/handlers/route/dynamic_route_handler.erl#L58)

You're free to deploy your own route handler by calling:

nitrogen:handler(my_route_handler, []) inside nitrogen_main_handler.erl

And making your own route handler is described in the docs here:
https://github.com/nitrogen/nitrogen_core/blob/master/doc/org-mode/handlers/route.org

(I'm linking the docs from github rather than nitrogenproject.com as I
haven't yet had achance to deploy the new docs to
nitrogenproject.com).

Thanks, Im coming from ruby and they work with a routes file.

Is there somewhere a tutorial where I can see how to make a menu which is working with the routes.

Probably the closest thing to that would be using the
named_routes_handler, defined here:
https://github.com/nitrogen/nitrogen_core/blob/master/src/handlers/route/named_route_handler.erl

The comments at the top show how you invoke it, then you end up
loading your routes into the 2nd argument of the
nitrogen:handler(named_route_handler, MyRoutes).

Thanks,

Could I use the chat demo or another demo to make a shopping cart which is updated because a customer presses the buy me button.

And that without any javascript ?

Sure, no reason I can think of that you couldn't. You can do most things in Nitrogen without writing Javascript, but some of the erlang you write will generate Javascript.

So the client would still need to support Javascript.
