django-redirects-file 0.1.1
A simple redirects utility that uses a json file for redirects definitions

Usage
-----

Import this in urls.py and assign it to urlpatterns
BEFORE custom urls. (redirects should be hit first)
e.g:

.. code:: python

    from django_redirects_file import load_redirects
    
    urlpatterns = load_redirects()
    urlpatterns += patterns('',
        url(r'^(?P<template>.*)/?$', TemplateFinder.as_view()),
    )

Format of redirects.json
------------------------

The json format is simply key/value pairs, from source to destination:

.. code:: javascript

    {
        "getubuntu/download_static": "http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download",
        "testing/quantal/alpha1":    "https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/TechnicalOverview/Alpha1"
    }


To convert old "double spaced" redirects.txt:

.. code:: python

    json.dumps(dict([
        i.split('  ')[0:2] #ignore the 3rd item, in-line comments
        for i in open('/path/to/redirects.txt').readlines()
        if len(i.split('  ')) >= 2 #ignore whole comment lines
    ]))
