Pros? Cons? Nice. Some comments though: 1) /app/default/data defaults to /app/default/data/tables with select type links for each table. It is easy to do the same for create for example, where each link would be a create type link for the respective table, but is it a good idea?. 2) /app/default/select creates a ticket while /app/default/data/select returns "404 not found" more consistent results would be better. One fix would be to move the 'tables' default response into Crud.select (), but is it a good idea?. 3) /app/default/data.xml (or json or...) is ignored while /app/default/data.xml/select/dog gives "invalid view" (no generic?) 4) Should Crud offer default serializers for xml, json, ... ? That's all for now. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
