Re: Write urls without regex in DRF

[nm]

Yes, it's possible to write this code without using regexp, and it should 
work the same.

If you have a look at the source code of the routers, there's a method 
`get_urls` in SimpleRouter (you can find it here 
https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/blob/master/rest_framework/routers.py),
 
which, among others, does:

regex = route.url.format(
prefix=prefix,
lookup=lookup,
trailing_slash=self.trailing_slash
)


where `route.url` is something like 

url=r'^{prefix}/{lookup}{trailing_slash}$',


and `prefix` is the first argument you pass to `router.register` - in your 
case, an empty string:

def register(self, prefix, viewset, basename=None, base_name=None)


It does not seem to matter whether you put `prefix=r''` or `prefix=''`, the 
ultimate url regex looks the same.
Disclaimer: I assume you're using the latest version of DRF (3.9.x); I 
haven checked how the code looks in older versions.

Re: Write urls without regex in DRF

[Rounak Jain]

Thanks for the reply. I understand how to use them in urls.py when creating
normal routes but here in case of drf, it would help if you could show me
how to do it

Write urls without regex in DRF

[Rounak Jain]

I am using DRF Viewsets to auto-generate URLs for different views. Is it
possible to write the code below without using regex?
Thanks

from .views import TaskViewSet
from rest_framework.routers import DefaultRouter

router = DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'', TaskViewSet, basename='task')
urlpatterns = router.urls
