Regex pattern for matching url

Question

i have the following pattern : /^\/(?P<slug>.+)$/ that match : /url.

My problem is that it also match /url/page, how to ignore /in this regex ?

The pattern should:

Pattern match : /url
Pattern don't match : /url/page

This should do it:

/^\/(?P<slug>[^\/]+)$/

[^\/] matches every character that is not a slash (^ at the beginning of a character class negates the class). I recommend to have a look at http://www.regular-expressions.info/ to learn more about regular expressions.
