Django 2.0: combine path and re_path got NoReverseMatch error

Question

Using path in project's urls.py, and using re_path in app's urls.py, I got the NoReverseMatch error, my project's urls.py:

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include, re_path

urlpatterns = [
    path('user/', include('user.urls', namespace='user'))
]

My app's urls.py:

urlpatterns = [
    re_path('activate/(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\-]+)/(?P<token>[0-9A-Za-z]{1,13}-[0-9A-Za-z]{1,20})/',
            views.activate_account, name='activate'),
]

I can't get the correct url, the error message:

django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'activate' with keyword arguments '{'uidb64': b'Mjc', 'token': '4tv-d4250012f57297ad82a6'}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['user\\/activate/(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\\-]+)/(?P<token>[0-9A-Za-z]{1,13}-[0-9A-Za-z]{1,20})/']

well you need to decode the uuid before sending it to the url

like uuid.decode()

It works, but how can I get the `uid` from `uidb64`? – zeleven Feb 20 '18 at 10:22
the place when you are using it, before putting it, just use that – Exprator Feb 20 '18 at 10:24
