pater

The goal of pater is to decompose a given pathname into meaningful tokens that will be later used to construct a regular expression useful when matching an HTTP request to a route handler.

Core to this are path parameters which are pieces of text you define in your route definitions and that will be filled when a new request comes in, they are useful because they act as identifiers for a given concept you care about.

Path parameters can appear anywhere you want inside a given path, they may share the same path segment or be next to plain text, given this the following are valid positions for path parameters:

pater borrows its syntax from the original path-to-regexp implementation that you can read, understand and experiment with pater in R as the R implementation tries to be as close as possible to the original.

Installation

You can install the development version of pater like so:

# install.packages("pak")
# pak::pak("JulioCollazos64/pater")

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
