Multiple paths to a single route in sinatra

Question

I want to have multiple urls be handled by the same route handler in sinatra:

At the moment I have:

get 'autocomplete' do

But ideally I would like:

get 'autocomplete_contacts', 'autocomplete_users', 'autocomplete_companies' do

I also need a way of getting the contacts/users/companies part out of the path if that is possible?

Can this be done in sinatra?

Answer 1

You can simply do:

['autocomplete_contacts', 'autocomplete_users', 'autocomplete_companies'].each do |path|
    get path do
        # ...
    end
end

and then retrieve the name of the route by doing:

request.path_info.gsub(/^\/autocomplete_/, '')

inside the handler, which will yields either contacts , users or companies .

If you expect to route all the routes that starts with autocomplete_ you can simply use a regex:

get /^autocomplete_([a-zA-Z])/ do
    # ...
end

and retrieve the name of the route by inspecting params[:captures] .

Answer 2

你可以使用正则表达式：

get %r{(autocomplete_contacts|autocomplete_users|autocomplete_companies)$} do
