For example, 'module.method' resolves to: {{{ def method(request): ... }}} In the web app framework I wrote, it resolves to: {{{ class method: def GET(self, request): ... def POST(self, request): ... ... }}} This ensures that POST functions don't accidentally leak into GETs. If both POST and GET want to reuse code, then they can add a new method to the class. This also allows this style: {{{ ... (r'^/method/(.*)', 'module.method') ... class method: GET = web.autodelegate(""GET_"") POST = web.autodelegate(""POST_"") def GET_(self, request): ... # index def GET_pagename(self, request): ... def POST_pagename(self, request): ... }}} which makes adding new URLs easy. The code for autodelegate is simply: {{{ def autodelegate(prefix=''): def internal(self, request, arg): func = prefix+arg if hasattr(self, func): return getattr(self, func)(request) else: raise NotFound return internal }}}" defect closed Database layer (models, ORM) normal worksforme Unreviewed 0 0 0 0 0 0
