In hadley/sinartra: A simple web app framework for R, based on sinatra.

Add possible route using the appropriate http verb (get, post, put, delete). Currently only get is implemented. These methods have two arguments: route, the description of the url to match, and the callback to run when the route is matched.

Route urls have a special syntax. They are basically paths but with two special keywords: :param which matches a single component and * which will match anything.

hello.html matches hello.html only
packages/:package.html will match packages/a.html, packages:/my-package.html and so on, and the callback will be called with an argument named package containing "a" and "my-package" respectively.
*.html will match anything ending in .html and callback will be called with a "splat" argument
