You could probably figure out how to do this eventually using the pattern-matching router (the parametric router won't do it for you), but it's going to be a lot easier if you start out without the need to rename/split controller items. It's hard to say what would work best without knowing more about the patterns you'd see and the controllers and functions you have. > > but I can't get it to work with the various routes.py files.
