Hi all,
Since it seemed like an interesting idea to me, I started development of a
third-party plugin.
It's currently at:
https://github.com/sjoerdjob/django-simple-url
Since I only started today, I have no readme/setup.py yet. Will come later
this week I hope.
Current usage is
from django_simple_url import simple_url
urlpatterns = [
simple_url('hello/world/', hello_world_view),
simple_url(':year/:month/', posts_for_month_view),
]
It works proper with includes (not adding a $ to the URL), and leaf views
(adding a $ to the URL).
Maybe this week, or early next week I will also add support for the
'<int:year>' syntax.
Kind regards,
Sjoerd Job
