Managing bootstrap.php in Kohana 3

We are currently using Kohana 3 for a staging application which is getting ready for production. We have few requirements to set custom routing and custom error codes. Most of the solutions offered in Kohana 3 suggests modifying bootstrap.php directly. Is that a best practice to do? In Kohana 2.x, they had something like routes.php as part of configuration. I believe that is replaced by regular expression routing in Kohana 3 which is placed inside bootstrap.php along with other out-of-box settings.

Please suggest the best practice followed by Kohana 3 community. I don't mind 开发者_高级运维changing bootstrap.php but wondering if there is any configuration files specifically for routing.

There is no single best practice. But if you have many routes (and usually you have), I suggest you to create a new file routes.php in application folder and include it in bootstrap.php.

So instead of Route::set('default'... in your bootstrap.php you will have require_once APPPATH.'routes.php';
