I am trying to do login/logout using Django Middleware. I have gone through few tutorials but all are posted with old versions. I am trying to hardcode the except function inside middleware instead of having in setting.py as follow:
middleware.py:
EXEMPT_FUNC = ['Accounts:login', 'Accounts:logout', 'Accounts:register']
class LoginRequiredMiddleware:
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response
def __call__(self, request):
response = self.get_response(request)
return response
def process_view(self, request, view_func, view_args, view_kwargs):
assert hasattr(request, 'user')
path = request.path_info.lstrip('/')
url_is_exempt = any(url.match(path) for url in EXEMPT_FUNC)
if path == reverse('Accounts:logout').lstrip('/'):
logout(request)
if request.user.is_authenticated() and url_is_exempt:
return redirect('User:home')
elif request.user.is_authenticated() or url_is_exempt:
return None
else:
return redirect('Accounts:login')
url.py:
app_name = 'Accounts'
urlpatterns = [
path('login', views.login_view, name='login'),
path('logout', views.logout_view, name='logout'),
path('register', views.register_view, name='register')
]
Above code is not working as intended, please help on what am I doing wrong.
Really appreciate your help.
Finally its working.
Here is what I changed.
middleware.py:
import re
from django.conf import settings
from django.urls import reverse
from django.shortcuts import redirect
from django.contrib.auth import logout
from Accounts import views
EXEMPT_PATH = ['login', 'logout', 'register']
class LoginRequiredMiddleware:
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response
def __call__(self, request):
response = self.get_response(request)
return response
def process_view(self, request, view_func, view_args, view_kwargs):
assert hasattr(request, 'user')
path = request.path_info.lstrip('/')
exempt = False
if path in EXEMPT_PATH:
exempt = True
if path == 'logout':
logout(request)
if request.user.is_authenticated and exempt:
return redirect('User:home')
elif request.user.is_authenticated or exempt:
return None
else:
return redirect('Accounts:login')
With this approach I don't need to modify settings.py.
I hope this helps.
I'd like to define a custom exception class and raise it.
Django rest framework has a hook where I can define custom exception handler,
(http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/exceptions/#custom-exception-handling)
Django also provides a way to do it via middleware.
Question: If I want to handle exceptions in drf views and regular django views, would it be sufficient to handle them in django middleware?
Or do I need separate handler for DRF views?
In other words, does DRF request/response goes through django middleware as well or not?
Create a script called exception_middleware.py anywhere in the project directory (preferably in the main app directory) and add the following:
import logging
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.conf import settings
logger = logging.getLogger("StackDriverHandler")
class ExceptionMiddleware(object):
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response
def __call__(self, request):
response = self.get_response(request)
if settings.DEBUG:
host = "http"
else:
# TODO: set for https
host = "http"
if response.status_code == 500:
return render(request, "error_templates/500.html")
if response.status_code == 404:
return render(request, "error_templates/404.html")
if response.status_code == 403:
return render(request, "error_templates/403.html")
return response
def process_exception(self, request, exception):
try:
logger.info(request, extra=exception)
except Exception as e:
logger.error(exception)
return None
def process_exception(self, request, exception):
try:
logger.info(request, extra=exception)
except Exception as e:
logger.error(exception)
return None
Add the path to this class in the MIDDLEWARE section in the settings.py file of your Django project (at the last).
That's it. This middleware will get executed during each of your requests and will check if you are in DEBUG and if there is an exception, this middleware will then create a message for you :) .
The example provides a snippet for an application level view, but what if I have lots of different (and some non-application) entries in my "urls.py" file, including templates? How can I apply this login_required decorator to each of them?
(r'^foo/(?P<slug>[-\w]+)/$', 'bugs.views.bug_detail'),
(r'^$', 'django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template', {'template':'homepage.html'}),
Dropped this into a middleware.py file in my project root (taken from http://onecreativeblog.com/post/59051248/django-login-required-middleware)
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.conf import settings
from re import compile
EXEMPT_URLS = [compile(settings.LOGIN_URL.lstrip('/'))]
if hasattr(settings, 'LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS'):
EXEMPT_URLS += [compile(expr) for expr in settings.LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS]
class LoginRequiredMiddleware:
"""
Middleware that requires a user to be authenticated to view any page other
than LOGIN_URL. Exemptions to this requirement can optionally be specified
in settings via a list of regular expressions in LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS (which
you can copy from your urls.py).
Requires authentication middleware and template context processors to be
loaded. You'll get an error if they aren't.
"""
def process_request(self, request):
assert hasattr(request, 'user'), "The Login Required middleware\
requires authentication middleware to be installed. Edit your\
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting to insert\
'django.contrib.auth.middlware.AuthenticationMiddleware'. If that doesn't\
work, ensure your TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS setting includes\
'django.core.context_processors.auth'."
if not request.user.is_authenticated():
path = request.path_info.lstrip('/')
if not any(m.match(path) for m in EXEMPT_URLS):
return HttpResponseRedirect(settings.LOGIN_URL)
Then appended projectname.middleware.LoginRequiredMiddleware to my MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES in settings.py.
For those who have come by later to this, you might find that django-stronghold fits your usecase well. You whitelist any urls you want to be public, the rest are login required.
https://github.com/mgrouchy/django-stronghold
Here's a slightly shorter middleware.
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
class LoginRequiredMiddleware(object):
def process_view(self, request, view_func, view_args, view_kwargs):
if not getattr(view_func, 'login_required', True):
return None
return login_required(view_func)(request, *view_args, **view_kwargs)
You'll have to set "login_required" to False on each view you don't need to be logged in to see:
Function-views:
def someview(request, *args, **kwargs):
# body of view
someview.login_required = False
Class-based views:
class SomeView(View):
login_required = False
# body of view
#or
class SomeView(View):
# body of view
someview = SomeView.as_view()
someview.login_required = False
This means you'll have to do something about the login-views, but I always end up writing my own auth-backend anyway.
Some of the previous answers are either outdated (older version of Django), or introduce poor programming practices (hardcoding URLs, not using routes). Here's my take that is more DRY and sustainable/maintainable (adapted from Mehmet's answer above).
To highlight the improvements here, this relies on giving URLs route names (which are much more reliable than using hard-coded URLs/URIs that change and have trailing/leading slashes).
from django.utils.deprecation import MiddlewareMixin
from django.urls import resolve, reverse
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from my_project import settings
class LoginRequiredMiddleware(MiddlewareMixin):
"""
Middleware that requires a user to be authenticated to view any page other
than LOGIN_URL. Exemptions to this requirement can optionally be specified
in settings by setting a tuple of routes to ignore
"""
def process_request(self, request):
assert hasattr(request, 'user'), """
The Login Required middleware needs to be after AuthenticationMiddleware.
Also make sure to include the template context_processor:
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth'."""
if not request.user.is_authenticated:
current_route_name = resolve(request.path_info).url_name
if not current_route_name in settings.AUTH_EXEMPT_ROUTES:
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse(settings.AUTH_LOGIN_ROUTE))
And in the settings.py file, you can define the following:
AUTH_EXEMPT_ROUTES = ('register', 'login', 'forgot-password')
AUTH_LOGIN_ROUTE = 'register'
Here is the classical LoginRequiredMiddleware for Django 1.10+:
from django.utils.deprecation import MiddlewareMixin
class LoginRequiredMiddleware(MiddlewareMixin):
"""
Middleware that requires a user to be authenticated to view any page other
than LOGIN_URL. Exemptions to this requirement can optionally be specified
in settings via a list of regular expressions in LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS (which
you can copy from your urls.py).
"""
def process_request(self, request):
assert hasattr(request, 'user'), """
The Login Required middleware needs to be after AuthenticationMiddleware.
Also make sure to include the template context_processor:
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth'."""
if not request.user.is_authenticated:
path = request.path_info.lstrip('/')
if not any(m.match(path) for m in EXEMPT_URLS):
return HttpResponseRedirect(settings.LOGIN_URL)
Noteworthy differences:
path.to.LoginRequiredMiddleware should be included in MIDDLEWARE not MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES in settings.py.
is_authenticated is a bool not a method.
see the docs for more info (although some parts are not very clear).
Use middleware.
http://www.djangobook.com/en/2.0/chapter17/
and
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/topics/http/middleware/#topics-http-middleware
I'm assuming this didn't change a whole lot in 1.2
Middleware allows you to create a class with methods who will process every request at various times/conditions, as you define.
for example process_request(request) would fire before your view, and you can force authentication and authorization at this point.
In addition to meder omuraliev answer if you want exempt url like this (with regexp):
url(r'^my/url/(?P<pk>[0-9]+)/$', views.my_view, name='my_url')
add it to EXEMPT_URLS list like this:
LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS = [r'^my/url/([0-9]+)/$']
r'..' in the beginning of the string necessary.
Django Login Required Middleware
Put this code in middleware.py :
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.conf import settings
from django.utils.deprecation import MiddlewareMixin
from re import compile
EXEMPT_URLS = [compile(settings.LOGIN_URL.lstrip('/'))]
if hasattr(settings, 'LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS'):
EXEMPT_URLS += [compile(expr) for expr in settings.LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS]
class LoginRequiredMiddleware(MiddlewareMixin):
def process_request(self, request):
assert hasattr(request, 'user')
if not request.user.is_authenticated:
path = request.path_info.lstrip('/')
if not any(m.match(path) for m in EXEMPT_URLS):
return HttpResponseRedirect(settings.LOGIN_URL)
And, in settings.py :
LOGIN_URL = '/app_name/login'
LOGIN_EXEMPT_URLS=(
r'/app_name/login/',
)
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
# ...
'python.path.to.LoginRequiredMiddleware',
)
Like this :
'app_name.middleware.LoginRequiredMiddleware'
If you have lots of views and you do not want to touch any one you can just use Middleware for this issue. Try code below:
import traceback
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
class RejectAnonymousUsersMiddleware(object):
def process_view(self, request, view_func, view_args, view_kwargs):
current_route_name = resolve(request.path_info).url_name
if current_route_name in settings.AUTH_EXEMPT_ROUTES:
return
if request.user.is_authenticated:
return
return login_required(view_func)(request, *view_args, **view_kwargs)
Cautions:
You must add this middleware to the bottommost of middleware section
of settings.py
You should put this variable in settings.py
AUTH_EXEMPT_ROUTES = ('register', 'login', 'forgot-password')
Thanks from #Ehsan Ahmadi
In the newer version of Django, the middleware should be written like this( my Djang version = 4.1.1) :
middleware.py
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.urls import resolve
from django.utils.deprecation import MiddlewareMixin
AUTH_EXEMPT_ROUTES = ('captcha-image', 'login', 'captcha')
class RejectAnonymousUsersMiddleware(MiddlewareMixin):
def process_view(self, request, view_func, view_args, view_kwargs):
current_route_name = resolve(request.path_info).url_name
if request.user.is_authenticated:
return
if current_route_name in AUTH_EXEMPT_ROUTES:
return
return login_required(view_func)(request, *view_args, **view_kwargs)
settings.py
MIDDLEWARE = [
'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
'myproject.middleware.RejectAnonymousUsersMiddleware',
]
Here's an example for new-style middleware in Django 1.10+:
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.urls import reverse
def login_required_middleware(get_response):
"""
Require user to be logged in for all views.
"""
exceptions = {'/admin/login/'}
def middleware(request):
if request.path in exceptions:
return get_response(request)
return login_required(get_response, login_url=reverse('admin:login'))(request)
return middleware
This example exempts the admin login form to avoid redirect loop, and uses that form as the login url.
I am using Django for a project and is already in production.
In the production environment 500.html is rendered whenever a server error occurs.
How do I test the rendering of 500.html in dev environment? Or how do I render 500.html in dev, if I turn-off debug I still get the errors and not 500.html
background: I include some page elements based on a page and some are missing when 500.html is called and want to debug it in dev environment.
I prefer not to turn DEBUG off. Instead I put the following snippet in the urls.py:
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^500/$', 'your_custom_view_if_you_wrote_one'),
(r'^404/$', 'django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template', {'template': '404.html'}),
)
In the snippet above, the error page uses a custom view, you can easily replace it with Django's direct_to_template view though.
Now you can test 500 and 404 pages by calling their urls: http://example.com/500 and http://example.com/404
In Django 1.6 django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template does not exists anymore, these are my settings for special views:
# urls.py
from django.views.generic import TemplateView
from django.views.defaults import page_not_found, server_error
urlpatterns += [
url(r'^400/$', TemplateView.as_view(template_name='400.html')),
url(r'^403/$', TemplateView.as_view(template_name='403.html')),
url(r'^404/$', page_not_found),
url(r'^500/$', server_error),
]
And if you want to use the default Django 500 view instead of your custom view:
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^500/$', 'django.views.defaults.server_error'),
(r'^404/$', 'django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template', {'template': '404.html'}),
)
Continuing shanyu's answer, in Django 1.3+ use:
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^500/$', 'django.views.defaults.server_error'),
(r'^404/$', 'django.views.defaults.page_not_found'),
)
For Django > 3.0, just set the raise_request_exception value to False.
from django.test import TestCase
class ViewTestClass(TestCase):
def test_error_page(self):
self.client.raise_request_exception = False
response = self.client.get(reverse('error-page'))
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 500)
self.assertTrue(
'some text from the custom 500 page'
in response.content.decode('utf8'))
Documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/topics/testing/tools/
NOTE: if the error page raises an exception, that will show up as an ERROR in the test log. You can turn the test logging up to CRITICAL by default to suppress that error.
Are both debug settings false?
settings.DEBUG = False
settings.TEMPLATE_DEBUG = False
How i do and test custom error handlers
Define custom View based on TemplateView
# views.py

context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs)
context['error_code'] = self.error_code
return context

Update for Django > 1.6 and without getting
page_not_found() missing 1 required positional argument: 'exception'
Inspired by this answer:
# urls.py
from django.views.defaults import page_not_found, server_error, permission_denied, bad_request
[...]
if settings.DEBUG:
# This allows the error pages to be debugged during development, just visit
# these url in browser to see how these error pages look like.
urlpatterns += [
path('400/', bad_request, kwargs={'exception': Exception('Bad Request!')}),
path('403/', permission_denied, kwargs={'exception': Exception('Permission Denied')}),
path('404/', page_not_found, kwargs={'exception': Exception('Page not Found')}),
path('500/', server_error),
You can simply define the handler404 and handler500 for errors in your main views.py file as detailed in this answer:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/18009660/1913888
This will return the error that you desire when Django routes to that handler. No custom URL configuration is needed to route to a different URL name.
In Django versions < 3.0, you should do as follows:
client.py
from django.core.signals import got_request_exception

if response.cookies:
self.cookies.update(response.cookies)
return response
finally:

Starting from Django 3.0 you could skip the custom Client definition and just use the code from tests.py.
Is there a way I can apply the login_required decorator to an entire app? When I say "app" I mean it in the django sense, which is to say a set of urls and views, not an entire project.
Yes, you should use middleware.
Try to look through solutions which have some differences:
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1179/ - with list of exceptions.
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1158/ - with list of exceptions.
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/966/ - conversely with list of login required urls.
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/136/ - simplest.
As of Django 3+, you can set login_require() to an entire app by applying a middleware. Do like followings:
Step 1: Create a new file anything.py in your yourapp directory and write the following:
import re
from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
//for registering a class as middleware you at least __init__() and __call__()
//for this case we additionally need process_view() which will be automatically called by Django before rendering a view/template
class ClassName(object):
//need for one time initialization, here response is a function which will be called to get response from view/template
def __init__(self, response):
self.get_response = response
self.required = tuple(re.compile(url) for url in settings.AUTH_URLS)
self.exceptions = tuple(re.compile(url)for url in settings.NO_AUTH_URLS)
def __call__(self, request):
//any code written here will be called before requesting response
response = self.get_response(request)
//any code written here will be called after response
return response
//this is called before requesting response
def process_view(self, request, view_func, view_args, view_kwargs):
//if authenticated return no exception
if request.user.is_authenticated:
return None
//return login_required()
for url in self.required:
if url.match(request.path):
return login_required(view_func)(request, *view_args, **view_kwargs)
//default case, no exception
return None
Step 2: Add this anything.py to Middleware[] in project/settings.py like followings
MIDDLEWARE = [
// your previous middleware
'yourapp.anything.ClassName',
]
Step 3: Also add the following snippet into project/settings.py
AUTH_URLS = (
//disallowing app url, use the url/path that you added on mysite/urls.py (not myapp/urls.py) to include as your app urls
r'/your_app_url(.*)$',
)
I think you are looking for this snippet, containing login-required middleware.
This is an old question. But here goes:
Django Decorator Include
This is a substitute of include in URLConf. Pefect for applying login_required to an entire app.
I clicked all the links in the anwsers, but they were all based on some kind of regular expressions. On Django 3+ you can do the following to restrict for a specific app:
Declare app_name="myapp" in your app's urls.py (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/intro/tutorial03/#namespacing-url-names)
(now all these urls should be called with there namespace "myapp:urlname")
Create a middleware.py file in your app with this:
from django.contrib.auth.views import redirect_to_login
from django.core.exceptions import ImproperlyConfigured
from django.urls import resolve
class LoginRequiredAccess:
"""All urls starting with the given prefix require the user to be logged in"""
APP_NAME = 'myapp'
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response
def __call__(self, request):
if not hasattr(request, 'user'):
raise ImproperlyConfigured(
"Requires the django's authentication middleware"
" to be installed.")
user = request.user
if resolve(request.path).app_name == self.APP_NAME: # match app_name defined in myapp.urls.py
if not user.is_authenticated:
path = request.get_full_path()
return redirect_to_login(path)
return self.get_response(request)
Put "myapp.middleware.LoginRequiredAccess" in your MIDDLEWARE constant from settings.py
Then in your main project urls.py
urlpatterns = [
path('foobar', include('otherapp.urls')), # this will not be redirected
path('whatever', include('myapp.urls')), # all these urls will be redirected to login
]
On of the avantage of this method is it can still works with a root url path, e.g path('', include('myapp.urls')), while the others will do an infinite redirect loop.
I'm wondering if there is any solution to make it works like this:
/app/app.py
class AppConfig(AppConfig):
login_required = True
/project/urls.py
urlpatterns = [
url(r'app/', include('app.urls', namespace='app'))
]
/common/middleare.py
def LogMiddleware(get_response):
def middleware(request):
# solution 1
app = get_app(request)
if app.login_required is True and request.is_authenticated is Fasle:
return HttpResponseRedirect(redirect_url)
# solution 2
url_space = get_url_space(request.get_raw_uri())
if url_space.namespace in ['app', 'admin', 'staff', 'manage'] and \
request.is_authenticated is False:
return HttpResponseRedirect(redirect_url)
I will check if there is any methoded to get the app or url name of a request. I think it looks prettier.
