same url pattern with differnet views and names - django

Question

My code is below
template looks like this
<td><button> Test</button></td>
<td><button> Delete</button></td>
url patterns
urlpatterns = [
path('<int:id>/', views.confighome, name='config'),
path('<str:schmid>/', views.deleteschema, name='deleteschema'),
path('te<str:schmid>/', views.testschema, name='testschema')
]
views.py
def deleteschema(request,schmid):
some code
return redirect('/configuration/'+str(request.session["project_id"]))
def testschema(request,schmid):
some code
return redirect('/configuration/'+str(request.session["project_id"]))
Whenever I click on the Testbutton its actually calling the delete function
Any idea why this happening Since I used named url parameters
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

The url will always match the second path(..), since each string that starts with te is a string. You therefore better make the URLs non-overlapping, as in that no URL that matches the second path(..) can match the third path(..). Regardless what URL the {% url 'testschema' allschema.schema_name %} thus generates, if the browser sends a request with that URL, it will be matched by the second path(..).
For example:
urlpatterns = [
path('<int:id>/', views.confighome, name='config'),
path('de<str:schmid>/', views.deleteschema, name='deleteschema'),
path('te<str:schmid>/', views.testschema, name='testschema')
]
or perhaps more convenient:
urlpatterns = [
path('<int:id>/', views.confighome, name='config'),
path('<str:schmid>/delete/', views.deleteschema, name='deleteschema'),
path('<str:schmid>/test/', views.testschema, name='testschema')
]
