Writing a custom tag which needs access to the request object

I'm writing my own custom template tag for Django for a purpose I keep coming across. I need to conditionally insert a form input if the URL is right. Essentially, I need to encapsulate the following template markup into a custom tag definition:

{% if request.path != "/login/" and request.path != "/logout/" %}
<div style="display:none;"><input type="hidden" name="redirect_url" value="{{request.path}}" /></div>
{% endif %}

I've tried doing this by making a custom template tag like so:

from django import template
import re

register = template.Library()

class RedirectUrlNode(template.Node):
    def render(self, context):
        current_path = context.request.path
        if re.match("^log(?:in|out)/?", current_path):
            return ""
        else:
            return "..." # insert div and input elements here

def do_redirect_url(parser, token):
    return RedirectUrlNode()

register.tag("redirect_url", do_redirect_url)

I'm getting the following error:

The context is a mapping, and you should index it.

current_path = context['request'].path
