Non-collection resource

[Michael Ottoson]

Hi All,

As you know, when creating a resource in the domain named, say "people" you get the following behaviour:

• GET /people returns a collection
• POST /people adds to the collection
• GET /people/{id} returns a single resource.

What I want to do is create a resource named, say "foobar" that is not a collection, such that:

• GET /foobar will return a single resource (e.g. {"foo":true, "bar": false} )
• PUT /foobar will upsert the one and only foobar resource.

Something like this:

DOMAIN = {

  'people': {

    'schema': {'firstName': {'type': 'string'}, 'lastName': {'type': 'string'}}

  },

  'foobar': {

    'schema': {'foo': {'type': 'boolean'}, 'bar': {'type': 'boolean'}},

    'singleton': True

  }

}

What I've done for now is create flask routes for GET and PUT, but I have to hand-code all of the automatic goodness Eve provides.

Is there a way to create a non-collection resource in the domain?
