[Dancer-users] request for feature

[Flavio Poletti]

I think that Puneet is suggesting to have a syntax for non-mandatory parts
in the route specifier, i.e. the foo_id might be there, as in:

/foo/1/bar/30

or not, as in

/foo/bar/30

in which case a default value for foo_id can be set inside the route
handler. Trying to guess a possible regex for it (don't know if "\w" is
correct here):

   /foo(?:/(?<foo_id>:\w+))?/bar(?:/(?<bar_id>:\w+))

i.e. each named capture "name" for a parameter is expanded to
"(?:/(?<name>:\w+))?" (or whatever is used instead of "\w" today).

Cheers,

   Flavio.
