#15552 closed New feature (fixed)

LOGIN_URL should allow named urls

Description

To adhere to the ​DRY principle it seems quite silly that one has to hardcode the LOGIN_URL, LOGOUT_URL and LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL.

It would be logical to simply use a named url so it always redirects to the login view you specified, regardless of the SCRIPT_NAME and your url configs.

I think this is a valid point, and the proposed solution is the right one. See also discussion at ​http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_frm/thread/fa3661888716f940/8b4d0cf8f34e5493

I've added a patch that implements Alex Gaynor's suggestion from the thread mentioned above and basically applies the logic from redirect() to LOGIN_URL and LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL

Patch needs improvement: set

The resolve_url function fits better in the django.shortcuts module instead of a new django.utils.urls module.

I placed it in utils because I wasn't sure you'd want resolve_url as part of the "public" shortcuts module.
But if that is ok I'll update the patch.

Yeah, that's fine.

In [a78dd109e6c81c49e90e36e9b793bad67c46c23c]:

Fixed #15552 -- LOGIN_URL and LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL can take URLpattern names.

Thanks UloPe and Eric Florenzano for the patch, and Malcolm Tredinnick for
review.

The current implementation does not allow named url arguments, right?

I'm using django-social-auth and would like to point LOGIN_URL to resolve('socialauth_begin', args=('google-oauth2',)).
