Currently, Our current routes do not support wildcards, You can only do something like this:
use cot::request::extractors::Path;
async fn hello_name(Path(name): Path<String>) -> cot::Result<Html> {
Ok(Html::new(format!("Hello, {}!", name)))
}
// inside `impl App`:
fn router(&self) -> Router {
Router::with_urls([
Route::with_handler_and_name("/", index, "index"),
Route::with_handler_and_name("/hello", hello, "hello"),
Route::with_handler_and_name("/hello/{name}", hello_name, "hello_name"),
])or this for the case of multiple routes
async fn hello_name(Path((first_name, last_name)): Path<(String, String)>) -> cot::Result<Html> {
Ok(Html::new(format!("Hello, {first_name} {last_name}!")))
}
// inside `impl App`:
fn router(&self) -> Router {
Router::with_urls([
// ...
Route::with_handler_and_name("/hello/{first_name}/{last_name}/", hello_name, "hello_name"),
])
}We have a couple of syntaxes from other frameworks to take inspiration from:
The Axum approach
Router::new().route("/static/*path", get(serve_static_file));The Actix web approach:
web::resource("/docs/{tail:.*}").route(web::get().to(serve_doc));The Rocket framework approach
#[get("/browse/<path..>")]
fn browse(path: PathBuf) -> String { ... }The Django approach (using re_path)
re_path(r'^(?P<lang>[a-z]{2})/(?P<path>.+)$', localized_page),The FastAPI approach
@app.get("/objects/{bucket}/{path:path}")
async def get_object(bucket: str, path: str): ...The flask approach
@app.route("/app/<path:subpath>")
def serve_app(subpath):
return send_from_directory("dist", subpath)The laravel approach
(Technically, I dont think we can support this the way it is)
Route::get('/pages/{any}', [PageController::class, 'show'])
->where('any', '.*');The Ruby on Rails approach
(similar to the Axum approach)
get '/pages/*path', to: 'pages#show'
