attached to each request object on ingress. The HTTP-verb-related
interfaces are defined in ``repoze.bfg.interfaces`` and are
``IGETRequest``, ``IPOSTRequest``, ``IPUTRequest``,
``IDELETERequest`` and ``IHEADRequest``. These interfaces can be
specified as the ``request_type`` attribute of a bfg view
declaration. A view naming a specific HTTP-verb-matching interface
will be found only if the view is defined with a request_type that
matches the HTTP verb in the incoming request. The more general
``IRequest`` interface can be used as the request_type to catch all
requests (and this is indeed the default). All requests implement
``IRequest``. The HTTP-verb-matching idea was pioneered by
`repoze.bfg.restrequest
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/repoze.bfg.restrequest/1.0.1>`_ . That
package is no longer required, but still functions fine.
