How to Custom Middleware in Django
To create a Django middleware for getting the user's IP address, you will need to do the following:
- Create a new Python file in your Django project's middleware directory.
- Define a new middleware class that inherits from MiddlewareMixin.
- Override the __init__ and process_request methods.
Here is an example of what the middleware class might look like:
from django.utils.deprecation import MiddlewareMixinclass getIPMiddleware(MiddlewareMixin):def __init__(self, get_response):self.get_response = get_responsedef process_request(self, request):x_forwarded_for = request.META.get('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR')if x_forwarded_for:user_ip = x_forwarded_for.split(',')[0]else:user_ip = request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR')request.user_ip = user_ip
To use this middleware, you will need to add it to the MIDDLEWARE list in your Django settings. For example:
MIDDLEWARE = [ ... 'djangoapp.middleware.getIPMiddleware',]
With this middleware in place, you can access the user's IP address by calling request.user_ip in your Django views.
