Handling many routes in Sinatra

[Akmuhammet J.]

Hi folks,

We are wriring API server using Sinatra.

Obviously we need to define a lot of routes. We have a lot of models

where each of them needs RESTful operations. 

Basically what is the best practices to manage huge amount of routes. 

I believe keeping all route definitions in one file is not a good approach.

Any well-written open similar source projects I can have a look at?

You could try Grape, a gem for specifically putting REST APIs on models.

Different approaches:

• Just split up the files (can get messy soon, too) and load those files.

• Use sinatra-namespace (though this is more for organizing larger files).

• Use modular apps with a router:
• General idea: https://gist.github.com/ae3b731e4374c86a18bf
• Making it part of the classes: https://gist.github.com/970108
• Real world examples:
• https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-admin
• https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-api

• Using modular apps with middleware: https://gist.github.com/643c42c1280005abb1a3

• Using modular apps with a cascade: https://gist.github.com/b2b49b3cd527487d36c9

You might want to have a look at Padrinorb.  Padrino lets you have routes defined in multiple controllers.
