Decorator to ease dynamic redirections in Django

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.http import HttpResponsePermanentRedirect

def redirect(url):
    def inner(request, **args):
        redirect_to = '%s?%s' % (url % args, request.GET.urlencode())
        return HttpResponsePermanentRedirect(redirect_to)
    return inner

I often use it so I hope it helps!

Usage:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
  url(r'^nav/$', redirect('/navigation/')),
  url(r'^search/(?P<category_name>\w+)/$',
    redirect('/documents/%(category_name)s/')),
  and so on...
)

It keeps GET arguments too.
