Allow course name to be used in url instead of course id #254

Open jamo opened 9 years ago

We should support both but default to the one with course name. E.g. instead of https://tmc.mooc.fi/mooc/courses/27 we want to have: https://tmc.mooc.fi/mooc/courses/k2015-ohjelmointi

318 has implemented this functionality. We are waiting for client side changes to allow seamless transition of the url scheme

Or let's allow both to reduce roadblocks.

How about https://tmc.mooc.fi/mooc/courses/27/k2015-ohjelmointi? You could ignore (or validate) the course name, the numeric ID would always be unique and avoid collisions. The existing URLs would stay valid and this would still make the URLs more recognisable and have the same visual advantages. :)

This is actually preparations for the id to uuid migration so we eventually want to completely hide the urls. Otherwise that would have been awesome solution
