Hmm, it looks like it does it only for variables listed in the action's arguments. (In pylons.controllers.core.WSGIController._inspect_call()). I thought it did it for all routing args. So you could define your action as:

def.__before__(self, controller): # Sets c.controller c.controller = controller # Or do it again to be explicit.

Hi Mike,

c.controller auto-assignment doesn't seem to be implemented in Routes1.8 --

Hi, Antonia...

first of all: please don't hijack threads. Start a new thread if you want to post to this list. Don't just reply to a random posting.

How I can get the controller name in the actual template context. For example, a site.mako template used by several controllers, I want to show the controller name with something like this:

${c.name}

It's possible or I must define a property for every controller with it's name?

The routes dictionary contains the information you are after:

request.environ['pylons.routes_dict']

You cann add a "def __before__(self)" in the lib/base.py and fill a template variable with it to be used in the templates:

c.routes = request.environ['pylons.routes_dict']

That would allows you to access the current controller's name in the template as:

${c.routes['controller']}

Actually, it's easier than that: ${c.controller}

Routing variables are automatically added to 'c'.
