How to specify route for URL ending with "/ip=1.2.3.4"?

[crusty-dave]

I need to support some legacy code that incorrectly specified the URI.

Note that I am still using actix-web 0.7 in this project.

In looking at the following:
https://actix.rs/docs/url-dispatch/

I thought I might be able to use a "tail" style regex, but I still get a 404:

r"/query/user/{tail:.*}"

I can see the path via logging in middleware, I just need to figure out a way to specify a route to use a handler instead of triggering the default handler that returns 404.

I know that in actix-web 2.0 and later, I could probably override the default handler, but is there a way to handle this in 0.7?

Note that the full path is also including a query string at the end. (i.e. xxx/ip=1.2.3.4?q1=foo&q2=bar

Thanks in advance,
-Dave

I figured out that I can at least use a scope and set a default_resource() handler, that will allow me to manually parse the URI.

At this point, I would still like to know if there is a way to have actix-web 0.7 parse the address portion (/ip=address)?

I'm sorry. I don't know if any of the current team can help with 0.7 issues :/
