URL prefix

[tredoe]

Many times you are going to use an URL prefix, like:

urlPrefix = "/wiki/"
web.Get(urlPrefix+"view/(.+)", viewHandler)
web.Post(urlPrefix+"save/(.+)", saveHandler)

so it would be helpful a function that stores that prefix and then were inserted at the string, i.e.

web.Prefix("/wiki/")
web.Get("view/(.+)", viewHandler)  // => /wiki/view/
web.Post("save/(.+)", saveHandler)  // => /wiki/save/

web.Prefix("/blog/")
web.Get("view/(.+)", viewHandler)  // => /blog/view/

// Prefix Cleaning
web.Prefix("")
web.Get("view/(.+)", viewHandler)  // => view/

This is basically supporting RESTful services, which is something I'm interested in. It would be nice to have a web.Rest("/user", class), and that class could implement methods like create, save, update, delete, etc...

Quite often, that's implemented as something like web.Resource

I think a wrapper for doing prefixing could be useful though. Like:

web.Area("/wiki", func () {
  web.Get("/view", blah)
})
