Dear all,
I was trying to mark a URL path for translation in the `urlpatterns` list
object and I found an unexpected behavior when I try to change the
language via set_language view (`django.view.i18n.views.set_language`).
A path must have a name attribute (for instance name="translate-url"), the
redirect works once after a language change (set_language view).
Otherwise, we get 404. This behavior may be a little bug in django
(django.urls.base.translate_url), since the framework does not force the
developer to use name in the url paths.
To put simple, I will explain it with code.
- This will work (by 'work' I mean that we will get a translated url in
the browser):
{{{
path(_('translate-this-url'), translate_this_url_view, name="translate-
url"),
}}}
- This will not work (we will get a 404 error)
{{{
path(_('translate-this-url'), translate_this_url_view,),
}}}
I dig a bit in the code and I found out that the function
`django.urls.base.translate_url` may be missing a check (verify if the
`url_name` attribute of the matched urlpath object is `None` or not).
Check the following snippet:
{{{
# django.urls.base.translate_url
def translate_url(url, lang_code):
parsed = urlsplit(url)
try:
# URL may be encoded.
match = resolve(unquote(parsed.path))
except Resolver404:
pass
else:
# TODO: here we should do something (if url_name is None: do
something else)
to_be_reversed = (
"%s:%s" % (match.namespace, match.url_name)
if match.namespace
else match.url_name
)
with override(lang_code):
try:
url = reverse(to_be_reversed, args=match.args,
kwargs=match.kwargs)
except NoReverseMatch:
pass
else:
url = urlunsplit(
(parsed.scheme, parsed.netloc, url, parsed.query,
parsed.fragment)
)
return url
}}}
Many thanks for having a look a the ticket!
