[hunchentoot-devel] Questions about using the same uri, but a different function for post and get methods.

[Jim Barrows]

I have a uri "/my-uri", when a get request is made I want to return whatever
information I have, and when a post request made, I want to update that
information.
I had thought that doing this:

(define-easy-handler(get-business :uri "/business" :default-request-type
:get)()
(with-html-output-to-string (*standard-output* nil :prologue nil :indent t)
(format t "{\"success\":true, \"data\": ~a}"
(encode-json-plist-to-string (business::find-business)))))

(define-easy-handler(post-business :uri "/business" :default-request-type
:post) (business-name)
(with-html-output-to-string( *standard-output* nil :prologue nil :indent t)
(format t "post-business - ~a" business-name)))

would accomplish that.  However, the second handler is always called, for
the get and the post.
I'm new to Lisp, and was wondering what I'm missing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
