urls: /myview -> /myview/
Benoit Chesneau
How can I have url ending with or without '/' going to the same
Class ? Is there a "simple" way ?
Btw why if Import myapp and put myapp.views.MyClass in the urls it
doesn't work ? I have to do "from myapp.views import MyClass" and then
put MyClass in urls to have it working. Any idee ?
Maybe because I use globals() but how to replace it ?
many questions for know, juste started to play with webpy ;)

I'm only going to answer this one because it's easy: regular
expressions. Before I elaborate, though, a word of advice: this is /not/
a good idea. Not as you formulate it, at least. Do not make them point
to the same class; make them /redirect/ to the right class. This way
there will be no two pages with exactly the same content on your website
(this confuses bots and many other tools; for example, a browser will
not remember going to the page without a / so will not colour it
purple-or-whatever, which might confuse the visitor; "huh, didn't I
already go there?" etcetera etcetera). No, I am not making this up:
google will kill you if you do so (it is not considered a good thing if
you have bogus content, and duplicate content is bogus in their eyes).
If not google then other search engines.
Anyway.
Make a regexp that grabs any page without trailing slash, optionally
checks if there is an entry with slash defined in the urls list and
redirects the user (301).

add the following to the beginning of urls.
"/(.*)/", "redirect",
and have the following class to handle those urls.
class redirect:
def GET(self, path):
web.seeother('/' + path)

It's interresting.
