It handles three types of routes: fully static paths (matched via key/value lookup), dynamic paths with typed parameters (like `<id:int>`), and regex-based paths including the special `<foo:path>` type that can span multiple path segments. The router groups similar routes together, arranges them into a hierarchical tree of nodes, and generates a single `find_route` function that efficiently dispatches requests without iterating through a list.\n\nThis is a low-level component designed to be subclassed for specific use cases\u2014Sanic itself uses it for both HTTP request routing and signal routing. Most Sanic users never interact with it directly; it is embedded in the framework. External projects that need custom routing logic or want to understand how Sanic's routing works internally may subclass `BaseRouter` and customize the resolution behavior.","worth_installing":"No, unless you are extending Sanic's routing internals or building a custom router from scratch. This package is a low-level component intended for framework developers, not application developers. Sanic users should install Sanic itself, which includes this package as a dependency. The dormant maintenance status (last update 2023-12-31) and lack of active development make it unsuitable for new external projects."},"id":"sanic-routing","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sanic-routing","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sanic-routing.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/sanic-routing/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-12-31","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"sanic-routing","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Core routing component for Sanic"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1525817,"position":3814,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"23.12.0"}
