Allow mixed case project URLs #701

Closed LucaCinquini closed 10 years ago

LucaCinquini commented 10 years ago

Who: Ryan

Request: allow a user to request a URL such as /projects/ESMPy/, in addition to the already working /projects/esmpy/

LucaCinquini commented 10 years ago

Done and ready to test.

murphysj commented 10 years ago

I am not sure how this is supposed to work.

I was able to make a project with a shortname=esmf when the original is shortname=ESMF

I was not able to make a project with a shortname=CoG when the original was shortname=cog

Did this get bounced off of Cecelia? I wonder if this is a good idea?

LucaCinquini commented 10 years ago

Hi Sylvia, this is not a case of having two projects with names that differ only by case, like "CoG" and "COG". Rather, it's a question of having one project like "ESMPy", but enable both URLs: /projects/ESMPy/ /projects/esmpy/

murphysj commented 10 years ago

How do I test this then? Did you enable something on the update project page?

I think you can just go to some project home page, then request the same URL with the project in a different case. L

Hi Luca, FYI, I was able earlier to create a new project with a lower case ESMF when the original was upper case.

How was this allowed?

It created a problem with the project browser that is trying to return two projects.

This is really not enabling both URLs.. so that either /esmpy or /ESMPy show up, it is that if someone types both, they revert to the main URL.

So if I type /ESMPy it redirects correctly to /esmpy

You never see ESMPy.

Is that what you thought you did?

LucaCinquini commented 10 years ago

Yes, this is what it needs to do - a simple redirect. L

LucaCinquini commented 10 years ago

I think we should NOT allow two project that differ only in case. Can you file a ticket to have this fixed, maybe for 2.1 ? thanks, L
