does django-ninja intentionally not allow api routes like `/users/me` but require `/users/{user_id}`

Trying to do something like:

@router.get("/users/test", response=str)
def user_test(request):
    return "hello" 

Throws error:

{
  "detail": [
    {
      "loc": [
        "path",
        "user_id"
      ],
      "msg": "value is not a valid uuid",
      "type": "type_error.uuid"
    }
  ]
}

how to get around this?

@RiccardoCherchi it is the way django urls work if you know for sure that your user_id is uuid - you can help django url resolver to pin to correct path - just add uuid:user_id - it will passed to urlresolver:

@router.get("/users/{uuid:user_id}", response=str) # <------------
def user_test(request, user_id):
    return "hello" 

@router.get("/users/me", response=str)
def user_test(request):
    return "hello" 

but in case your user ids are strings - the only thing that will help is placing /user/me BEFORE /user/user_id in codebase

Actually didn’t know this, Django surprise me every time, thanks for the clarification!!
