Mixins

Added in version 1.0.4

LoginRequiredMixin

A login required mixin for use with class-based views.

This Class is a light wrapper around the Django login_required decorator, function parameters are instead attributes defined on the class.

Due to Python Method Resolution Order (MRO), this mixin must be added as the left most mixin of a view.

Attributes:

Name Type Description
redirect_field_name str

Default: 'next'

login_url str

Default: settings.LOGIN_URL

Example
from guardian.mixins import LoginRequiredMixin
from django.views.generic import View

class SecretView(LoginRequiredMixin, View):
    redirect_field_name = 'foobar'
    login_url = '/let-me-in/'

    def get(self, request):
        return HttpResponse('secret-view')
Note

The mixin has exactly the same flow as login_required decorator:

  • If the user isn't logged in, redirect to settings.LOGIN_URL, passing the current absolute path in the query string.

    • Example: /accounts/login/?next=/polls/3/.
  • If the user is logged in, execute the view normally. The view code is free to assume the user is logged in.

PermissionRequiredMixin

A view mixin that verifies if the current logged-in user has the specified permission.

This mixin works by wrapping the request.user.has_perm(...) method. If a get_object() method is defined either manually or by including another mixin (e.g., SingleObjectMixin) or self.object is defined, then the permission will be tested against that specific instance. Alternatively, you can specify get_permission_object() method if self.object or get_object() does not return the object against you want to test permission

The mixin does the following:

  • If the user isn't logged in, redirect to settings.LOGIN_URL, passing the current absolute path in the query string.

    • Example: /accounts/login/?next=/polls/3/.
  • If raise_exception is set to True a PermissionDenied (403) is raised instead of redirecting the user to settings.LOGIN_URL.

  • If the user is logged in, and passes the permission check, the view is executed normally.

Note

Testing of a permission against a specific object instance requires an authentication backend that supports. The guardian.backends.ObjectPermissionBackend or a custom implementation must be listed under the list of authentication backends in your project.

Attributes:

Name Type Description
permission_required str | list[str]

permissions to check in form "<app_label>.<permission codename>". Default is None.

login_url str

Default: settings.LOGIN_URL

redirect_field_name str

Default is 'next'

return_403 bool

Returns 403 error page instead of redirecting. Default is False.

return_404 bool

Returns 404 error page instead of redirecting. Default is False.

raise_exception bool

Default is False

permission_denied_message str

A string to pass to the PermissionDenied exception. It is available in the 403 template context object as exception. Default is ''.

accept_global_perms bool

Whether the mixin should first check for global perms. If none are found, proceed to check object level permissions. Default is False.

permission_object None | object

Object against which test the permission; if not set fallback to self.get_permission_object() which return self.get_object() or self.object by default. Default is None.

any_perm bool

Whether any of the permissions in sequence is accepted. Default is False.

Example
from guardian.mixins import PermissionRequiredMixin
from django.views.generic import View

class SecureView(PermissionRequiredMixin, View):
    ...
    permission_required = 'auth.change_user'
