This is just a collection of utilities that I found myself putting into *every
single* pyramid project I made. So now they're all in one place.

Here's a quick taste.

Don't do this::

    def register_user(request):
        username = request.POST['username']
        password = request.POST['password']
        birthdate = request.POST['birthdate']

Do this::

    @argify(birthdate=date)
    def register_user(request, username, password, birthdate):
        ...

What urls does this match?

::

    @view_config(context=Root, name='package')
    def get_or_list_packages(request):
        ...

Well, it matches

* ``/package``
* ``/package/``
* ``/package/1234``
* ``/package/wait/hold/on``
* ``/package/this/seems/confusing``

Whaaaat? Let's fix that::

    @view_config(context=Root, name='package', subpath=())
    def list_packages(request):
        # return a list of packages

    @view_config(context=Root, name='package', subpath=('id/*')
    def get_package(request):
        package_id = request.named_subpaths['id']
        # fetch a single package

The first one matches

* ``/package``
* ``/package/``

The second matches

* ``/package/*``
* ``/package/*/``

But that still seems sloppy. You *demand* consistency!

::

    @view_config(context=Root, name='package', subpath=())
    @addslash
    def list_packages(request):
        # return a list of packages

    @view_config(context=Root, name='package', subpath=('id/*')
    @addslash
    def get_package(request):
        package_id = request.named_subpaths['id']
        # fetch a single package

Now it's just ``/package/`` and ``/package/*/``

That's the sales pitch. Read the docs for more details.
