Impressive! Using it in a project right now, so much nicer for a non-beginner like me too. No more regexs!

Looking forward to a Django patched that allows casting of the variables too.

    Hi :).

    Yes, I also added the other syntax yesterday evening, so the
    <int:year> syntax is now fully supported. (But it does not yield an
    int!!).

    Currently only `'int'` is registered as a valid type, with the regex
    r'[0-9]+'. More can be registered using
    `django_simple_url.register('hex', '[0-9a-fA-F]+')`.

    One downside (still) is that it does not get cast to an int.
    Although I'm not really sure if I find it logical that it gets cast.

    I don't really have that much time to work on it, but I'm hoping to
    add the `setup.py` either later today or shortly after the weekend.

    Kind regards,

        Great initiative!

        I really think you should use the flask syntax instead of the
        rails one that I first suggested. Seems this is the consensus
        from this thread, and that makes it more likely to get it to
        core one day.

            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
            <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

                I would like to see if this could be done as a
                third-party project (allow "pluggable URLs" which could
                use any syntax). If not, then let's accept a patch to
                Django to support it. Over time, if there's some strong
                consensus about a particular third-party package, then
                we could bring it in to core. I think this approach is
                less controversial then Django adopting some new,
                untested syntax right now.

                    So it looks to me that the consensus is that this IS
                    in fact a good idea, to supply a simpler, regex-free
                    method to define URL:s.

                    It also seems that the best liked version is
                    something that's similar to what flask uses:
                    /articles/<int:year>/<int:month>/.

                    I've never written a DEP before, but it sounds like
                    a fun challenge. I'll try to look at existing DEPs
                    for a pattern and then apply that.

                    Does anyone have something in particular that they
                    would like to add to the DEP? I figure I'll try to
                    keep this first version as simple as possible, while
                    maintaining extension points for features that can
                    be added later on.
