#24430 closed New feature

wildcard matching and reversing of URLs — at Initial Version

Description

Example:
urlpatterns += patterns(,

(r'\w+/', include(admin.site.urls),),

)

All links generated by the admin site with this url show a 'x'
for example
/x/<app_name>/<model_name>/

instead of the result of the matching wild card 'ABC' from ABC/<app_name>/<model_name>

the problem is that reverse can not know what to put in the wild card without having the path or the request as context.

Solution: add an optional parameter to reverse which is the request and the reverse can happen with the context of the request which is found acceptable in case the request parameter is not none.
