Conflicting URI templates #663

Open hooblei opened 8 years ago

hooblei commented 8 years ago

Hi,

I'm trying to implement the following two resources

/foo/{id}
/foo/{id}/bar

But when adding the second route, falcon complains with an error: "The URI template for this route conflicts with another route's template".

I had seen some progress on similar issues (#564, #647) but I'm not sure if these fixes work for the described pattern too or when this will be merged/released.

So, is there any kind of workaround for the described URI patterns?

Thanks

Found the answer in conflicts_with of CompiledRouterNode. This was just a naming issue. My example looked more like this:

/foo/{key}
/foo/{id}/bar

Using the same variable name works as expected ... maybe a good note for the docs?

Thanks for the report! I scheduled this as a documentation fix for 1.0.

We should document this as well as see if we can have the router print a more helpful error message. See also #794.
