Basic routing

Routing in blazingAPI allows you to define how HTTP requests are handled by your application. Routes are associated with specific URL patterns and HTTP methods, and they connect these patterns to handler functions that process the requests.

Defining Routes

To define routes in blazingAPI, use decorators like @app.get, @app.post, @app.put and @app.delete to associate a URL pattern with a handler function. Below are examples illustrating how to define routes.

1. Simple Route

A simple route handles requests to a specific URL. For example, the following route handles GET requests to /articles and returns a list of articles.

@app.get('/articles')
def list_articles(request):
    articles = Article.manager.all()
    return Response(body=articles)
