django url resolver problem

[Ali Osman Yüce]

Hi all,

I have encountered a problem when trying to create views that have to include the same string in name. I created two views below.

The problem is here, when I tried to make a post request to revoke_token endpoint, this request always is handled by  'token/' endpoint(TokenView). I debugged url Django resolver, as far as I understood, Django always check include a string in the path, not an exact match. When it sees "token/" words in "token/" URL, it says I found the URL path and return TokenView as a handler. When I swap these two URL paths, it works well.

Is there anyone faced with this problem? Thanks in advance.

url("token/", TokenView.as_view(), name="token"),
url("revoke_token/", RevokeTokenView.as_view(), name="revoke-token"),

Dear Ali

I am just new to this myself, but I think it comes to down to the question what is the first pattern that matches for django. As far as I know we can use the ^ in order to tell django/python that a pattern should be at the start of a string that is searched. So I am not mistaken, you could add that at the start and then it could work.

But here are other people with much more experience and I could be mistaken.

So, I would perhaps try something like

url("^token/", TokenView.as_view(), name="token"),
url("^revoke_token/", RevokeTokenView.as_view(), name="revoke-token"),

Can we please have a look at the project and app urls.py and also the view.py module.

Thanks, it works well. We have to add start(^) and finish($) regex symbols to url names. Otherwise django resolver checks whether any url has contain request path.
