This looks good, if you want to take it a step further and have something
like sub-controller-functions in your apps that will have their own views
folder inside the app views folder you can use this decorator I made:
def parent_controller(views_folder=None, pop_args_zero=True):
"""
Decorator to turn a controller function into a parent of other
controller
functions.
This allows you to have many controller functions in a single controller
function each having their own view inside a folder.
:views_folder: Folder where it gets the views for the children
controllers
by default uses the parent controller name.
:pop_args_zero: whether to remove or not the name of the children
controller
from request.args. By default True.
"""
if views_folder is None:
views_folder = os.path.join(request.controller, request.function)
def wrapper(action):
def f(_action=action, *a, **b):
command = None
try:
if pop_args_zero:
parseme = request.args.pop(0)
else:
parseme = request.args(0)
if '.' in parseme:
try:
command, extension = parseme.split('.')
except ValueError:
raise HTTP(400, "invalid arguments")
else:
command, extension = parseme, 'html'
except (IndexError, TypeError): # pop from empty list
command, extension = 'index', 'html'
response.view = os.path.join(views_folder, command + '.' +
extension)
requested_controller = _action().get(command, None)
if requested_controller:
return requested_controller()
else:
raise HTTP(404)
f.__doc__ = action.__doc__
f.__name__ = action.__name__
return f
return wrapper
Then in the app1.py controller you could do something like:
@auth.requires_login()
@parent_controller()
def pages():
def index():
...
return {}
def insert():
...
return something
def delete():
...
return something
return locals()
And in the views you would have
app1/
pages/
index.html
insert.html
delete.html
@villas note that in your case it's probably better to have a single
application do the log in and then use CAS.
