Page with a Parameter

Sometimes, you need to make the page respond to url parameters. For example, you wish:

http://yourdomain.com/article/3

shows the third article in the database. In this case, you register the page as such:

@app.page('/article', 'Article')
def form_page(param):
    return [ ... the content of the page ... ]

Then, when users come with url like /article/<param>, the param part will be passed as the first parameter of the handling function.

If you the page has multiple parameters in the url like /page_name?param_a=value_a&param_b=value_b, you can get them with the second parameter in your page handler:

@app.page('/detail', 'Detail Page')
def detail_page(arg, all_args):
    ... # all_args will be a dictionary of all the params
