URL Builder for CherryPy

After using werkzeug as a web framework (which is great and simple, but doesnt support some features), i'm now trying cherrypy.

Now what I miss in cherrypy is werkzeug's elegant way of building urls (e.g. for links in templates) using开发者_JAVA百科 the name of a decorated function like this:

@expose('/archive/<int:year>/<int:month>')
def archive(request, year, month):
    pass

>>> url_for('archive',2010,04)
'/archive/2010/04'

I didn't find a similar way in cherrypy, did I miss it?

You didn't miss it. CherryPy doesn't have that sort of approach built into the 'expose' decorator. You can, however, use the builtin Routes dispatcher with your application, which has a similar URL template syntax. If you'd like to try to wrap that up into a decorator like werkzeug's, we'd love to see the code pasted on the http://tools.cherrypy.org wiki. Bonus points for sticking that logic onto the RoutesDispatcher class itself.
