To use with an existing application:
import rest
# add a handler for "rest" calls
application = webapp.WSGIApplication([
<... existing webservice urls ...>
('/rest/.*', rest.Dispatcher)
], ...)
# configure the rest dispatcher to know what prefix to expect on request urls
rest.Dispatcher.base_url = "/rest"
# add all models from the current module, and/or...
rest.Dispatcher.add_models_from_module(__name__)
# add all models from some other module, and/or...
rest.Dispatcher.add_models_from_module(my_model_module)
# add specific models
rest.Dispatcher.add_models({
"foo": FooModel,
"bar": BarModel})
# add specific models (with given names) and restrict the supported methods
rest.Dispatcher.add_models({
"foo" : (FooModel, rest.READ_ONLY_MODEL_METHODS),
"bar" : (BarModel, ["GET_METADATA", "GET", "POST", "PUT"],
"cache" : (CacheModel, ["GET", "DELETE"] })
# use custom authentication/authorization
rest.Dispatcher.authenticator = MyAuthenticator()
rest.Dispatcher.authorizer = MyAuthorizer()
