-
-``RoutingWrapper`` allows you to route API requests to different nodes
-depending on the command name.
-
-For example, you could use this wrapper to direct all PoW requests to a
-local node, while sending the other requests to a light wallet node.
-
-.. note::
-
-    A common use case for ``RoutingWrapper`` is to perform proof-of-work on
-    a specific (local) node, but let all other requests go to another node.
-    Take care when you use ``RoutingWrapper`` adapter and ``local_pow``
-    parameter together in an API instance, because the behavior might not
-    be obvious.
-
-    ``local_pow`` tells the API to perform proof-of-work (``attach_to_tangle``)
-    without relying on an actual node. It does this by calling an extension
-    package `PyOTA-PoW <https://pypi.org/project/PyOTA-PoW/>`_ that does the
-    job. In PyOTA, this means the request doesn't reach the adapter, it
-    is redirected before.
-    As a consequence,  ``local_pow`` has precedence over the route that is
-    defined in ``RoutingWrapper``.
-
-``RoutingWrapper`` must be initialized with a default URI/adapter. This
-is the adapter that will be used for any command that doesn't have a
-route associated with it.
-
-Once you've initialized the ``RoutingWrapper``, invoke its ``add_route``
-method to specify a different adapter to use for a particular command.
-
-``add_route`` requires two arguments:
-
--  ``command: Text``: The name of the command. Note that this is the
-   camelCase version of the command name (e.g., ``getNodeInfo``, not
-   ``get_node_info``).
--  ``adapter: AdapterSpec``: The adapter or URI to send this request to.
