Redirect / return to same (previous) page in Django?

Question

What are the options when you want to return the user to the same page in Django and what are the pros/cons of each?

Methods I know:

• HTTP_REFERER

Answer 1

While the question and answer is old, I think it's lacking a few options. I have not find any cons with the methods, I would be happy to know if there are any?

• request.path_info
• request.get_full_path()

• request.build_absolute_uri()

  from django.shortcuts import redirect
  
  redirect(request.path_info) # No query parameters
  
  redirect(request.build_absolute_uri()) # Keeps query parameters
  
  redirect(request.get_full_path()) # Keeps query parameters
