Use LoginRequiredMixin and UserPassesTestMixin at the same time

Question

I want to have a TemplateView Class that uses LoginRequiredMixin and UserPassesTestMixin at the same time. Something like this:

from django.views.generic imp         


        

Answer 1

I think you're better off subclassing AccessMixin and then performing these checks yourself. Something like this:

from django.contrib.auth.mixins import AccessMixin
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect 

class FinanceOverview(AccessMixin, TemplateMixin):

    def dispatch(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        if not request.user.is_authenticated:
            # This will redirect to the login view
            return self.handle_no_permission()
        if not self.request.user.groups.filter(name="FinanceGrp").exists():
            # Redirect the user to somewhere else - add your URL here
            return HttpResponseRedirect(...)

        # Checks pass, let http method handlers process the request
        return super().dispatch(request, *args, **kwargs)

Answer 2

You should override get_login_url:

class FinanceOverview(LoginRequiredMixin, UserPassesTestMixin, TemplateMixin):
    login_url = '/login'
    redirect_field_name = 'next'

    def test_func(self):
        return self.request.user.groups.filter(name="FinanceGrp").exists()

    def get_login_url(self):
        if self.request.user.is_authenticated:
            return URL_FOR_AUTHENTICATED_USERS
        return super().get_login_url()

    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        DO SOMETHING IF USER IS AUTHENTICATED AND ALSO MEMBER OF GROUP FinanceGrp
