RoutablePage

[kiyoshi-satoo]

Hi everyone.
I want to make a routablepage but to take file name or title as argument.Since the file name uses spaces(%20) and various other characters I get 404 error.I tried using Regex but to no avail.Maybe I am doing something wrong,so I will be glad if someone can suggest some solution.

Routable page url

# @re_path(r'^(?P<title>[-\w\s]+)/$') 
@path('<str:title>/')
def screen_by_title(self, request,title):
    print(title)
    return HttpResponse(status=200)

Template

<a href="{% routablepageurl page 'screen_by_title' title=image.alt %}"></a>

After render

<a href="projects/some-project/Screen%201/"></a>

Unfortunately this is a known issue with RoutablePageMixin (see #3653) - URLs still have to follow the same restrictions as page slugs.

Maybe you could use the quote / unquote functions in django.contrib.admin.utils (and the admin_urlquote template filter from the admin_urls tag library within templates - title=image.alt|admin_urlquote) to convert these strings to slug-safe versions within the URL?

Hey @gasman.Thank you for your reply. I will try to test this option.

For a better understanding - I am trying to do something like this
I can create a separate django view for all this, but I would like to keep the page hierarchy using RoutablePageMixin.

If you have any other suggestions that would be cool, thanks.
