Answer 1

Yes, of course you can get the url path of view named 'view1' without hard-coding the url.

All you need to do is - just import the 'reverse' function from Django urlresolvers.

Just look at the below example code:

from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse

from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect

def some_redirect_fun(request):

    return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('view-name'))
