Running multi route anvil apps from the Ide

[duncan_richards12]

What I’m trying to do:
Understand how the IDE functions when running an app with the new routes functionality:

Serve anything, anywhere on your domain, with @anvil.server.route()

Yep, it’s here. Respond to any path within your app’s domain with @anvil.server.route: @anvil.server.route("/hello") def hello(**p): return {"hello":"world"} $ curl https://my-interesting-app.anvil.app/hello {"hello":"world"} But wait - there’s more! What if you don’t just want to serve a machine-readable response? What if you want to serve a human-accessible UI on a particular URL instead? Just return a FormResponse object: @anvil.server.route("/my-page") def my_page(**p): re…

So I think I can safely assume that clicking run with go to the basic URL without any extra path, but if we want to test going directly to a specific route while still having the benefits debugging in the IDE, how does that work?

I’m really excited to start playing with the new functionality!

Create a Debug Environment link! It’s a private link that points to whatever version of your app you’re currently editing in Anvil – sort of like the “Run” button, only you can hit it with curl or with another browser tab.

Great I’ll give those a work out!
