Flask Custom Routing

Say that I'm defining a user profile page in Flask:

@app.route('/user/<name>')
def user(name):
    do stuff

I'd like to change the routing rules so that I can put more than just one designation in the <name>, e.g. <name, location> to translate to the user with that name and location, url given by /user/James-Oregon.

If I understand you correctly, you're looking for...

@app.route('/user/<name>-<location>')
def user(name, location):
    # do stuff...

When using URL /user/James-Oregon, you should get "James" for name and "Oregon" for location.

Note that flask is largely built off of Werkzeug, so be sure to check out the Werkzeug routing documentation as well.
