Since Edit added the ultra-flexible macro define-easy-handler, I have replaced all my custom dispatch functions with it.

There's a small issue with this macro, since it modifies the global *easy-handler-alist*.

In production I have two server instances, one http and one https.

I cannot easily say, for example, I want the following apply only to the https server instance.

(define-easy-handler (home-page :uri "/login") () (with-html ...))

(define-easy-handler (home-page :uri "/my-account") () (with-html ...))

The problem is that start-server happens at run-time but define-easy-handler happens at load-time, so you cannot associate any server specific binding in define-easy-handler.

Attached is a patch that introduce a slot :name to the server class and a global variable *servers* which is an a-list mapping names to server instances.

With this you can do something like

(define-easy-handler (home-page :uri "/hunchentoot/test/easy-home.html" :server-names '(:http)) () (with-html (:html (:body "Home page"))))

(define-easy-handler (login-page :uri "/hunchentoot/test/easy-login.html" :server-names '(:https)) () (with-html (:html (:body "Secure login"))))

(define-easy-handler (common-page :uri "/hunchentoot/test/easy-common.html" :server-names '(:https :http)) () (with-html (:html (:body "Common page"))))

(start-server :name :http :port 8000) (stop-server :http)

(start-server :name :https :port 4443) (stop-server :https)

If you are not using multiple servers, this change will be transparent.

I'd appreciate any suggestions.
