custom_templates:custom-pages-parameters	custom_templates	custom-pages-parameters	Path parameters for pages	You can define custom pages that match multiple paths by creating files with {variable} definitions in their filenames. For example, to capture any request to a URL matching /about/* , you would create a template in the following location: templates/pages/about/{slug}.html A hit to /about/news would render that template and pass in a variable called slug with a value of "news" . If you use this mechanism don't forget to return a 404 if the referenced content could not be found. You can do this using {{ raise_404() }} described below. Templates defined using custom page routes work particularly well with the sql() template function from datasette-template-sql or the graphql() template function from datasette-graphql .
