Overview
--------

Django JS Reverse is a small django app that makes url handling of
`named urls `__ in javascript easy and non-annoying..

For example you can retrieve a named url:

urls.py:

::

url(r'^/betterliving/(?P[-\w]+)/(?P\d+)/$', 'get_house', name='betterliving_get_house'),

in javascript like:

::

Urls.betterlivingGetHouse('house', 12)

Result:

::

/betterliving/house/12/

Requirements

Installation
------------

Install using ``pip`` …

::

pip install django-js-reverse

… or clone the project from github.

::

git clone https://github.com/ierror/django-js-reverse.git

Add ``'django_js_reverse'`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS`` setting.

::

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django_js_reverse',
)

Usage with webpack
------------------

Install using ``npm``

::

npm install --save django-js-reverse

Include none-cached view …

::

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^jsreverse.json$', 'django_js_reverse.views.urls_json', name='js_reverse'),
)

… or a cached one that delivers the urls JSON

::

from django_js_reverse import views
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^jsreverse.json$', cache_page(3600)(views.urls_json), name='js_reverse'),
)

Include JavaScript in your bundle:

::

// utils/djangoReverse.mjs
import _ from 'lodash/fp';
import djangoJsReverse from 'django-js-reverse';

export default _.once(
async () => {
const res = await fetch('/jsreverse.json');
const data = await res.json();
return djangoJsReverse(data);
}
)

::

// somePlace.mjs
import djangoReverse from './utils/djangoReverse';

(async () => {
const urls = await djangoReverse();
const url = urls.someViewName('some-arg');
...
})();

Usage as static file
--------------------

First generate static file by

::

./manage.py collectstatic_js_reverse

If you change some urls or add an app and want to update the reverse.js file,
run the command again.

After this add the file to your template

::

Usage with views
----------------

Include none-cached view …

::

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^jsreverse/$', 'django_js_reverse.views.urls_js', name='js_reverse'),
)

… or a cached one that delivers the urls javascript

::

from django_js_reverse.views import urls_js
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^jsreverse/$', cache_page(3600)(urls_js), name='js_reverse'),
)

Include javascript in your template

::

or, if you are using Django > 1.5

::

Usage as template tag
_____________________

You can place the js_reverse JavaScript inline into your templates,
however use of inline JavaScript is not recommended, because it
will make it impossible to deploy a secure Content Security Policy.
See `django-csp `__

::

{% load js_reverse %}


{% js_reverse_inline %}

Use the urls in javascript
--------------------------

If your url names are valid javascript identifiers ([$A-Z\_][-Z\_$]\*)i
you can access them by the Dot notation:

::

Urls.betterlivingGetHouse('house', 12)

If the named url contains invalid identifiers use the Square bracket
notation instead:

::

Urls['betterliving-get-house']('house', 12)
Urls['namespace:betterliving-get-house']('house', 12)

You can also pass javascript objects to match keyword aguments like the
examples bellow:

::

Urls['betterliving-get-house']({ category_slug: 'house', entry_pk: 12 })
Urls['namespace:betterliving-get-house']({ category_slug: 'house', entry_pk: 12 })

Options
-------

Optionally, you can overwrite the default javascript variable ‘Urls’ used
to access the named urls by django setting

::

JS_REVERSE_JS_VAR_NAME = 'Urls'

Optionally, you can change the name of the global object the javascript variable
used to access the named urls is attached to. Default is :code:`this`

::

JS_REVERSE_JS_GLOBAL_OBJECT_NAME = 'window'

Optionally, you can disable the minfication of the generated javascript file
by django setting

::

JS_REVERSE_JS_MINIFY = False

By default all namespaces are included

::

JS_REVERSE_EXCLUDE_NAMESPACES = []

To exclude any namespaces from the generated javascript file, add them to the `JS_REVERSE_EXCLUDE_NAMESPACES` setting

::

JS_REVERSE_EXCLUDE_NAMESPACES = ['admin', 'djdt', ...]

If you want to include only specific namespaces add them to the `JS_REVERSE_INCLUDE_ONLY_NAMESPACES` setting
tips:
* Use "" (empty string) for urls without namespace
* Use "foo\0" to include urls just from "foo" namaspace and not from any subnamespaces (e.g. "foo:bar")

::

JS_REVERSE_INCLUDE_ONLY_NAMESPACES = ['poll', 'calendar', ...]

If you run your application under a subpath, the collectstatic_js_reverse needs to take care of this.
Define the prefix in your django settings:

::

JS_REVERSE_SCRIPT_PREFIX = '/myprefix/'

By default collectstatic_js_reverse writes its output (reverse.js) to your project's STATIC_ROOT.
You can change the output path:

::

JS_REVERSE_OUTPUT_PATH = 'some_path'
