Tornado how handler restful routes

Question

I'm try to do a RESTFul Api with tornado framework but i don't have idea how handler the url routes for the handlers, I try to do something like this Tornado Restful Handler Classes this cuestion is 3 years ago and i ask if now exists a better way for do that. Now exist a elegant way for handler the url routes of RESTFul API?

its already so elegant. Tornado already is doing a lot of work, what else do we need. — shadab.tughlaq, Dec 25 '14 at 07:06

import tornado.web

class MainHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self.write("Hello, world")

    def post(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self.write("Hello, world")

class IDHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def post(self, *args, **kwargs):
        _id = args[0]
        self.write(_id)

application = tornado.web.Application([
    (r"/", MainHandler),
    (r"/(\d+)$", IDHandler),
])

if __name__ == "__main__":
    application.listen(8888)
    tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()

if your request http://127.0.0.1:8888/ in get or post method your give 'Hello, world'

if you request http://127.0.0.1:8888/12 in post method your give '12'
