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 MiddlewareMixin

class getIPMiddleware(MiddlewareMixin):
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response

def 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
