使用include参数反向url查找

Question

Does anyone know how to make a reverse url lookup on a url with an include parameter? For example I have the following url:

 url(r'^photos/', include('photos.urls'), name="photos"),

And in my view i want to access it as follows

def photos_redirect(request, path):
    return HttpResponsePermanentRedirect(reverse('photos') + path)

But it get the following error:

Reverse for 'photos' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.

You have to reverse to a single urlpattern. The photos URL pattern is including all the urlpatterns in photos.urls , so you have to choose which single URL you are wanting to direct to.
