-This view will be called with its context as a model with attributes
-matching the Routes routing dictionary associated with the request.
+You might then configure the ``RoutesMapper`` like so::
+
+ def fallback_get_root(environ):
+ return {} # the graph traversal root is empty in this example
+
+ get_root = RoutesMapper(fallback_get_root)
+ get_root.connect('archives/:article', controller='articles')
+
+ import myapp
+ from repoze.bfg.router import make_app
+
+ app = make_app(get_root, myapp)
+
+At this point, if any URL matches the pattern ``archives/:article``,
+the ``.views.articles_view`` view will be called with its context as a
+only-the-fly-generated-model with attributes matching the Routes
+routing dictionary associated with the request. In particular, in
+this case the model will have an ``article`` attribute matching the
+article picked off the URL by Routes.
