urlreverser

Url reversing module for Node.

Inspired by django.

First urls must be passed to url function, then it can be reversed back. Function url accept url and optional name. If name is not specified, full url will be used as name for reverser. The original string will be returned in url call.

Simple usage:

var reverser = require('urlreverser')
reverser.url('/foo/:bar?', 'bar_url')
// -> '/foo/:bar?'
reverser.reverse('bar_url', {bar: 'baz'})
// -> '/foo/baz'
reverser.reverse('bar_url')
// -> '/foo/'

Possibly ommited groups is also supported:

reverser.url('/foo(?:/bar/:baz)?', 'baz')
// -> '/foo/(?:/bar/:baz)'
reverser.reverse('baz', {baz: 'baz'})
// -> '/foo/bar/baz'
reverser.reverse('baz')
// -> '/foo'

Templates support

nunjucks:

var env = new nunjucks.Environment()
reverser.nunjucks(env)
reverser.url('/foo/:bar', 'bar')
env.renderString("{% url 'bar', bar='baz' %}")
// -> '/foo/baz'
