<dd><p>The URL Generator generates URL’s</p>
<p>It is automatically instantiated by the RoutesMiddleware and put
into the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">wsgiorg.routing_args</span></tt> tuple accessible as:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">url</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">environ</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'wsgiorg.routing_args'</span><span class="p">][</span><span class="mi">0</span><span class="p">][</span><span class="mi">0</span><span class="p">]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Or via the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">routes.url</span></tt> key:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">url</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">environ</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'routes.url'</span><span class="p">]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The url object may be instantiated outside of a web context for use
in testing, however sub_domain support and fully qualified URL’s
cannot be generated without supplying a dict that must contain the
key <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">HTTP_HOST</span></tt>.</p>

<dd><p>Generate a route that includes params used on the current
request</p>
<p>The arguments for this method are identical to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">__call__</span></tt>
except that arguments set to None will remove existing route
matches of the same name from the set of arguments used to
construct a URL.</p>

<tt class="descclassname">routes.util.</tt><tt class="descname">url_for</tt><big>(</big><em>*args</em>, <em>**kargs</em><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#routes.util.url_for" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>
<dd><p>Generates a URL</p>
<p>All keys given to url_for are sent to the Routes Mapper instance for
generation except for:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>anchor specified the anchor name to be appened to the path
host overrides the default (current) host if provided
protocol overrides the default (current) protocol if provided
qualified creates the URL with the host/port information as
needed</pre>
</div>
<p>The URL is generated based on the rest of the keys. When generating a new
URL, values will be used from the current request’s parameters (if
present). The following rules are used to determine when and how to keep
the current requests parameters:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>If the controller is present and begins with ‘/’, no defaults are used</li>
<li>If the controller is changed, action is set to ‘index’ unless otherwise
specified</li>
</ul>
<p>For example, if the current request yielded a dict of
{‘controller’: ‘blog’, ‘action’: ‘view’, ‘id’: 2}, with the standard
‘:controller/:action/:id’ route, you’d get the following results:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>url_for(id=4) => '/blog/view/4',
url_for(controller='/admin') => '/admin',
url_for(controller='admin') => '/admin/view/2'
url_for(action='edit') => '/blog/edit/2',
url_for(action='list', id=None) => '/blog/list'</pre>
</div>
<p><strong>Static and Named Routes</strong></p>
<p>If there is a string present as the first argument, a lookup is done
against the named routes table to see if there’s any matching routes. The
keyword defaults used with static routes will be sent in as GET query
arg’s if a route matches.</p>
<p>If no route by that name is found, the string is assumed to be a raw URL.
Should the raw URL begin with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/</span></tt> then appropriate SCRIPT_NAME data will
be added if present, otherwise the string will be used as the url with
keyword args becoming GET query args.</p>
