Very interesting... Made me jot down a non-mini, non-existent web framework I think I might like to use.... It's only just a tad bit more compact than Tir and will take a lot more effort to implement... but (I hope) it is much easier to tell at a glance what it is doing. Must find time for building my own web framework some day. Corresponding Arc Challenge: (cheated a bit, if you want to make this 'proper' you'd need to add a cookie, and maybe another function.) require "filter" require "form" require "response" require "route" said_form = form.default { saying = form.charfield() } function said_page(args) return response.http(said_form.render()) end function said_click(args) return response.http( ([[<a href="javascript:document.write(%s)">click here</a>]]) :format(args.post.saying)) end route.set(filter.get, "^/said/$", said_page) route.set(filter.post, "^/said/$", said_click) Login / Logout require "filter" require "template" require "form" require "widget" require "response" require "route" require "generic" require "css" login_form = form.default({ username = form.charfield(), password = form.charfield{widget = widget.password} }) function login_form:clean(args, data) if authenticate(data.username, data.password) then return true end args:set_error(self, {'username or password is incorrect'}) args:set_data(self, args.post) return false end function login_check(request) if request.session['user'] then return nil, response.redirect("/") end return filter.get(request) end function login_page(args) return response.http(template.default.render_with { head = css.link("my.css"), body = login_form.render() }) end function login_auth(args) if login_form:clean(args, args.post) then return response.redirect("/") end return login_page(args) end route.set(login_check, "^/login/$", login_page) route.set(filter.post, "^/login/$", login_auth) route.set(filter.any, "", generic.not_found)
