Django Firebase check if user is logged in - django

Question

I'm trying to check if the user is logged into firebase in Django by requesting the session_uid in the home.html file. Which seems not to be working. How can I check if the firebase user is logged in?
def login(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = UserLoginForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
# form.save()
email = form.cleaned_data.get('email')
password = form.cleaned_data.get('password')
user = auth.sign_in_with_email_and_password(email, password)
session_id = user['idToken']
request.session['uid'] = str(session_id)
messages.success(request, f'Account created for {email}!')
return redirect(request, 'blog-home')
else:
form = UserLoginForm()
return render(request, 'users/login.html', {'form': form, 'title': 'Login'})
home.html
{% extends "home/base.html" %} -->
{% block content %}
{% if request.session.session_id %}
{% for post in posts %}
<article class="media content-section">
<div class="media-body">
<div class="article-metadata">
<a class="mr-2" href="#">{{ post.author }}</a>
<small class="text-muted">{{ post.date_posted }}</small>
</div>
<h2><a class="article-title" href="#">{{ post.title }}</a></h2>
<p class="article-content">{{ post.content }}</p>
</div>
</article>
{% endfor %}
{% else %}
<h2>You need to login</h2>
{% endif %}
{% endblock content %}

Answer 1

You do the following in the view
session_id = user['idToken']
request.session['uid'] = str(session_id)
yet access like request.session.session_id in the template. You should be doing request.session.uid.
