How to get the url path of a view function in django

Question

As an example:

view.py

def view1( request ):
    return HttpResponse( \"just a test...\" )

urls.py

urlpatterns = patter         


        

Answer 1

As said by others, reverse function and url templatetags can (should) be used for this.

I would recommend to add a name to your url pattern

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url( r'^view1$', 'app1.view.view1', name='view1'),
)

and to reverse it thanks to this name

reverse('view1')

That would make your code easier to refactor
