Comment (by gitaarik):
For what it's worth (this is a old ticket), I ran into the same problem as
@geoffhing, where I had a API which on 404 would redirect to a language-
prefixed URL because I was using a catch-all url pattern:
{{{
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^api/', include(api.urls)),
]
urlpatterns += i18n_patterns(
url(r'^something/', include('something.urls')),
url(r'^', include(wagtail_urls)),
)
}}}
I fixed it by extending the default Django LocaleMiddleware:
{{{
from django.middleware.locale import LocaleMiddleware as
DjangoLocaleMiddleware
class LocaleMiddleware(DjangoLocaleMiddleware):
def process_response(self, request, response):
if request.path.startswith('/api/'):
# Prevent `/api/` URLs from redirecting to language-prefixed
URLs,
# because the API client will get a 302 redirect response
instead
# of 404, which is not what we want.
return response
return super().process_response(request, response)
}}}
This was the best solution I could come up with. I preferrably don't
override default django classes but in this case I couldn't think of any
other solution. It works quite fine though.
