This has been requested by several members of the community who would like a way to access the URI template in middleware, etc. (e.g., for logging). Fixes #619

Routing
The falcon.routing module contains utilities used internally
by :pyfalcon.API to
route requests. They are exposed here for use by custom routing
engines.
A custom router is any class that implements the following interface:
class FancyRouter(object):
def add_route(self, uri_template, method_map, resource):
"""Adds a route between URI path template and resource.
Args:
uri_template (str): The URI template to add.
method_map (dict): A method map obtained by calling
falcon.routing.create_http_method_map.
resource (object): Instance of the resource class that
will handle requests for the given URI.
"""
def find(self, uri):
"""Search for a route that matches the given partial URI.
Args:
uri(str): The requested path to route
Returns:
tuple: A 4-member tuple composed of (resource, method_map,
params, uri_template), or ``None`` if no route matches
the requested path
"""A custom routing engine may be specified when instantiating :pyfalcon.API. For example:
fancy = FancyRouter()
api = API(router=fancy)falcon.routing
