Tired of hard-coding endpoints in your client-side JS? Exhausted from rewriting all of your redirects whenever you change your express routes? Reverse match your routes with reverse.js:

    var reverse = reverser([
        ['^path/to/([\\w\\d]+)/$', 'resource']
    ])

    var path = reverse('resource', ['garybusey'])
    // === 'path/to/garybusey/'

Works in browser and in Node (and with Django!)

var express = require('express')
  , reverser = require('reverse')

app.get('/some/:path', function myController(req, resp, next) { })

app.reverse = reverser.express(app)

app.reverse('myController', ['thing']) // === '/some/thing'

Pending a setup.py.

Add reversejs to your INSTALLED_APPS. In your template:

{% load reversejs %}

{# expose all patterns available under 'testapp.urls' through the function `myreverse` #}
{% export_urls 'testapp.urls' as myreverse %}

Your client-side javascript now has the ability to reverse any endpoints exposed by 'testapp.urls'. If you're using named regexen in your routes, you may use the optional kwargs argument to reverse those.

var endpoint = myreverse('blog_detail', [], {'slug':'myslug'})
