[Grok-dev] url() method on JSON component

[Jan-Wijbrand Kolman]

Hi,

Martijn recently issued:

   https://bugs.launchpad.net/grok/+bug/463469

Coincidentally, the issue came in at exactly the moment I was looking 
for the url() method on the JSON components I was writing myself...


Proposal:

Not only the url() method is useful for JSON (and maybe even the REST) 
components, but so are the application_url() method and the response 
property.

The url() method and the response property is defined in 
grokcore.view.View. We could split out these into a seperate baseclass. 
grokcore.view.View will then inherit from this baseclass.

In grok we will define a mixin class derived from this baseclass that 
adds the application_url() method. The JSON and REST components can then 
inherit from this mixin class.

What do you think?


I can work on this more or less soon.

regards,
jw
