If you want a list of all the urls in your project, first you need to install django-extensions

You can simply install using command.

pip install django-extensions

For more information related to package goto django-extensions

After that, add django_extensions in INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py file like this:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django_extensions',
...
)

urls.py example:

from django.urls import path, include
from . import views
from . import health_views

urlpatterns = [
    path('get_url_info', views.get_url_func),
    path('health', health_views.service_health_check),
    path('service-session/status', views.service_session_status)
]

And then, run any of the command in your terminal

python manage.py show_urls

or

./manage.py show_urls

Sample output example based on config urls.py:

/get_url_info             django_app.views.get_url_func
/health                   django_app.health_views.service_health_check
/service-session/status   django_app.views.service_session_status

For more information you can check the documentation.

Try this:

from django.urls import get_resolver
get_resolver().reverse_dict.keys()

Or if you’re still on Django 1.*:

from django.core.urlresolvers import get_resolver
get_resolver(None).reverse_dict.keys()

Django >= 2.0 solution

I tested the other answers in this post and they were either not working with Django 2.X, incomplete or too complex. Therefore, here is my take on this:

from django.conf import settings
from django.urls import URLPattern, URLResolver

urlconf = __import__(settings.ROOT_URLCONF, {}, {}, [''])

def list_urls(lis, acc=None):
    if acc is None:
        acc = []
    if not lis:
        return
    l = lis[0]
    if isinstance(l, URLPattern):
        yield acc + [str(l.pattern)]
    elif isinstance(l, URLResolver):
        yield from list_urls(l.url_patterns, acc + [str(l.pattern)])
    yield from list_urls(lis[1:], acc)

for p in list_urls(urlconf.urlpatterns):
    print(''.join(p))

This code prints all URLs, unlike some other solutions it will print the full path and not only the last node. e.g.:

admin/
admin/login/
admin/logout/
admin/password_change/
admin/password_change/done/
admin/jsi18n/
admin/r/<int:content_type_id>/<path:object_id>/
admin/auth/group/
admin/auth/group/add/
admin/auth/group/autocomplete/
admin/auth/group/<path:object_id>/history/
admin/auth/group/<path:object_id>/delete/
admin/auth/group/<path:object_id>/change/
admin/auth/group/<path:object_id>/
admin/auth/user/<id>/password/
admin/auth/user/
... etc, etc

Django 1.11, Python 2.7.6

cd to_your_django_project

python manage.py shell

Then paste following code.

from django.conf.urls import RegexURLPattern, RegexURLResolver
from django.core import urlresolvers
urls = urlresolvers.get_resolver()

def if_none(value):
    if value:
        return value
    return ''

def print_urls(urls, parent_pattern=None):
    for url in urls.url_patterns:
        if isinstance(url, RegexURLResolver):
            print_urls(url, if_none(parent_pattern) + url.regex.pattern)
        elif isinstance(url, RegexURLPattern):
            print(if_none(parent_pattern) + url.regex.pattern)

print_urls(urls)

Sample output:

^django-admin/^$
^django-admin/^login/$
^django-admin/^logout/$
^django-admin/^password_change/$
^django-admin/^password_change/done/$
^django-admin/^jsi18n/$
^django-admin/^r/(?P<content_type_id>\d+)/(?P<object_id>.+)/$
^django-admin/^wagtailimages/image/^$
^django-admin/^wagtailimages/image/^add/$
^django-admin/^wagtailimages/image/^(.+)/history/$
^django-admin/^wagtailimages/image/^(.+)/delete/$
^django-admin/^wagtailimages/image/^(.+)/change/$
^django-admin/^wagtailimages/image/^(.+)/$
...

In Django 3.0, it’s as easy as:

from django.urls import get_resolver
print(get_resolver().url_patterns)

Prints:
[<URLPattern '' [name='home']>, <URLPattern '/testing' [name='another_url']>]

Here is a quick and dirty hack to just get the information you need without needing to modify any of your settings.

pip install django-extensions
python manage.py shell -c 'from django.core.management import call_command; from django_extensions.management.commands.show_urls import Command; call_command(Command())'

This is piggy backing off @robert’s answer. While correct, I didn’t want to have django-extensions as a dependency even if it was for just a second.

I am using the next command:

(Python3 + Django 1.10)

from django.core.management import BaseCommand
from django.conf.urls import RegexURLPattern, RegexURLResolver
from django.core import urlresolvers


class Command(BaseCommand):

    def add_arguments(self, parser):

        pass

    def handle(self, *args, **kwargs):

        urls = urlresolvers.get_resolver()
        all_urls = list()

        def func_for_sorting(i):
            if i.name is None:
                i.name = ''
            return i.name

        def show_urls(urls):
            for url in urls.url_patterns:
                if isinstance(url, RegexURLResolver):
                    show_urls(url)
                elif isinstance(url, RegexURLPattern):
                    all_urls.append(url)
        show_urls(urls)

        all_urls.sort(key=func_for_sorting, reverse=False)

        print('-' * 100)
        for url in all_urls:
            print('| {0.regex.pattern:20} | {0.name:20} | {0.lookup_str:20} | {0.default_args} |'.format(url))
        print('-' * 100)

Usage:

./manage.py showurls

Sample output:

There is a recipe on activestate

import urls

def show_urls(urllist, depth=0):
    for entry in urllist:
        print("  " * depth, entry.regex.pattern)
        if hasattr(entry, 'url_patterns'):
            show_urls(entry.url_patterns, depth + 1)

show_urls(urls.url_patterns)

There’s a plugin I use: https://github.com/django-extensions/django-extensions, it has a show_urls command that could help.

Simply type in a url you know does not exist and the server will return an error message with a list of url patterns.

For example, if you’re running a site at http://localhost:8000/something

Type in

http://localhost:8000/something/blahNonsense, and your server will return the url search list and display it in the browser

def get_resolved_urls(url_patterns):
    url_patterns_resolved = []
    for entry in url_patterns:
        if hasattr(entry, 'url_patterns'):
            url_patterns_resolved += get_resolved_urls(
                entry.url_patterns)
        else:
            url_patterns_resolved.append(entry)
    return url_patterns_resolved

In python manage.py shell

import urls
get_resolved_urls(urls.urlpatterns)

Minimalist solution for django 2.0

For instance, if you’re looking for an url that’s on the first app of installed_apps, you can access it like that:

from django.urls import get_resolver
from pprint import pprint

pprint(
    get_resolver().url_patterns[0].url_patterns
)

I have extended Seti’s command to show namespace, all url parts, auto-adjust column widths, sorted by (namespace,name):
https://gist.github.com/andreif/263a3fa6e7c425297ffee09c25f66b20

import sys
from django.core.management import BaseCommand
from django.conf.urls import RegexURLPattern, RegexURLResolver
from django.core import urlresolvers


def collect_urls(urls=None, namespace=None, prefix=None):
    if urls is None:
        urls = urlresolvers.get_resolver()
    _collected = []
    prefix = prefix or []
    for x in urls.url_patterns:
        if isinstance(x, RegexURLResolver):
            _collected += collect_urls(x, namespace=x.namespace or namespace,
                                       prefix=prefix + [x.regex.pattern])
        elif isinstance(x, RegexURLPattern):
            _collected.append({'namespace': namespace or '',
                               'name': x.name or '',

    return _collected


def show_urls():
    all_urls = collect_urls()
    all_urls.sort(key=lambda x: (x['namespace'], x['name']))

    max_lengths = {}
    for u in all_urls:
        for k in ['pattern', 'default_args']:
            u[k] = str(u[k])
        for k, v in list(u.items())[:-1]:
            # Skip app_list due to length (contains all app names)
            if (u['namespace'], u['name'], k) == \
                    ('admin', 'app_list', 'pattern'):
                continue
            max_lengths[k] = max(len(v), max_lengths.get(k, 0))

    for u in all_urls:
        sys.stdout.write(' | '.join(
            ('{:%d}' % max_lengths.get(k, len(v))).format(v)
            for k, v in u.items()) + '\n')


class Command(BaseCommand):
    def handle(self, *args, **kwargs):
        show_urls()

Note: column order is kept in Python 3.6 and one would need to use OrderedDict in older versions.

Update: A new version with OrderedDict now lives in django-🍌s package: https://github.com/5monkeys/django-bananas/blob/master/bananas/management/commands/show_urls.py

Django 1.8, Python 2.7+
Just run these commands in your Shell. Python manage.py shell and execute the following code.

from django.conf.urls import RegexURLPattern, RegexURLResolver
from django.core import urlresolvers
urls = urlresolvers.get_resolver(None)

def if_none(value):
    if value:
        return value
    return ''

def print_urls(urls, parent_pattern=None):
    for url in urls.url_patterns:
        if isinstance(url, RegexURLResolver):
            print_urls(url, if_none(parent_pattern) + url.regex.pattern)
        elif isinstance(url, RegexURLPattern):
            print(if_none(parent_pattern) + url.regex.pattern)

print_urls(urls)

Django >= 2.0 List Solution

adopted from @CesarCanassa

from django.conf import settings
from django.urls import URLPattern, URLResolver

URLCONF = __import__(settings.ROOT_URLCONF, {}, {}, [''])

def list_urls(patterns, path=None):
    """ recursive """
    if not path:
        path = []
    result = []
    for pattern in patterns:
        if isinstance(pattern, URLPattern):
            result.append(''.join(path) + str(pattern.pattern))
        elif isinstance(pattern, URLResolver):
            result += list_urls(pattern.url_patterns, path + [str(pattern.pattern)])
    return result

import subprocces

res = subprocess.run(
    'python manage.py show_urls',
    capture_output=True,
    shell=True,
)
url_list = [
    line.split('\t')[0]
    for line in res.stdout.decode().split('\n')
]

You can create a dynamic import to gather all URL Patterns from each application in your project with a simple method like so:

def get_url_patterns():
    import importlib
    from django.apps import apps

    list_of_all_url_patterns = list()
    for name, app in apps.app_configs.items():
        # you have a directory structure where you should be able to build the correct path
        # my example shows that apps.[app_name].urls is where to look
        mod_to_import = f'apps.{name}.urls'
        try:
            urls = getattr(importlib.import_module(mod_to_import), "urlpatterns")
            list_of_all_url_patterns.extend(urls)
        except ImportError as ex:
            # is an app without urls
            pass

    return list_of_all_url_patterns

list_of_all_url_patterns = get_url_patterns()

I recently used something like this to create a template tag to show active navigation links.

from django.urls.resolvers import RegexPattern,RoutePattern
from your_main_app import urls

def get_urls():
    url_list = []
    for url in urls.urlpatterns:
        url_list.append(url.pattern._regex) if isinstance(url.pattern, RegexPattern) else url_list.append(url.pattern._route)

    return url_list

Here your_main_app is the app name where your settings.py file is placed

Yet another adaption of @Cesar Canassa ‘s generator magic. This can be added to the yourapp/management/commands/dumpurls.py director of your app so that it’ll be accessible as a subcommand in management.py.

note: I added a line to make sure it filters for only yourapp. Update or remove it accordingly if additional URLs are desired.

In case you are using DRF, you can print all the URL patterns for a particular router by printing the urlpatterns from router.get_urls() (within your Django app’s urls.py file).

Open your apps urls.py and add the print statement to the bottom of the file, so the whole file might look like this:

import pprint

from django.urls import include, path
from rest_framework import routers

from . import views

router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register(r"users", views.UserViewSet, basename="User")
router.register(r"auth", views.AuthenticationView, basename="Auth")
router.register(r"dummy", views.DummyViewSet, basename="Dummy")
router.register("surveys", views.SurveyViewSet, basename="survey")

urlpatterns = [
    path("", include(router.urls)),
]

pprint.pprint(router.get_urls())

The patterns are then printed like this:

[<URLPattern '^users/$' [name='User-list']>,
 <URLPattern '^users\.(?P<format>[a-z0-9]+)/?$' [name='User-list']>,
 <URLPattern '^users/admins/$' [name='User-admins']>,
 <URLPattern '^users/admins\.(?P<format>[a-z0-9]+)/?$' [name='User-admins']>,
 <URLPattern '^users/current/$' [name='User-current']>,
 <URLPattern '^users/current\.(?P<format>[a-z0-9]+)/?$' [name='User-current']>,
 <URLPattern '^users/(?P<pk>[^/.]+)/$' [name='User-detail']>,
 <URLPattern '^users/(?P<pk>[^/.]+)\.(?P<format>[a-z0-9]+)/?$' [name='User-detail']>,
 <URLPattern '^auth/login/$' [name='Auth-login']>,
...
]

In my case I want to list api endpoints without having to basically rewrite my urlpatterns. You can’t import urlpatterns into the view since it causes a circular import. So here is a pretty good solution using the include function from django.urls. This allows you to list any set of urlpatterns in the project.

from django.views.generic import TemplateView
from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework.routers import APIRootView
from rest_framework.schemas import get_schema_view
from django.urls import include
import re

# Create your views here.
class ApiRoot(APIRootView):

    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        urls = include('api.urls')[0].urlpatterns
        response = {}
        for url in urls:
            match = re.search(r'[\w\/\-]+', str(url.pattern))
            if not match:
                continue
            name = match.group()
            response[name] = request.build_absolute_uri(name)
        return Response(response)

Copy and paste this and fix up some stuff. Hacky solution that works great for me.
