Router

Routing handler for the Iron web framework.

Router is a fast, convenient, and flexible routing middleware for Iron. It allows complex glob patterns and named url parameters and also allows handlers to be any Handler, including all Chains.

Example

```rust fn main() { let mut router = Router::new(); // Alternative syntax: router.get("/", handler); // let router = router!(get "/" => handler, router.get("/:query", handler); // get "/:query" => handler);

Iron::new(router).http("localhost:3000").unwrap();

fn handler(req: &mut Request) -> IronResult<Response> {
    let ref query = req.extensions.get::<Router>().unwrap().find("query").unwrap_or("/");
    Ok(Response::with(status::Ok, *query))
}

} ```

Overview

Router is a part of Iron's core bundle.

• Route client requests based on their paths
• Parse parameters and provide them to other middleware/handlers

Installation

If you're using cargo, just add router to your Cargo.toml.

```toml [dependencies]

router = "*" ```

Otherwise, cargo build, and the rlib will be in your target directory.

Documentation

Along with the online documentation, you can build a local copy with make doc.
