how to get request.user in a TemplateTag
How does one get in the value of request.user into a TemplateTag?
In the file myproject/news/templatetags/news_tags.py I have:
from django import template
from myproject.news.buildnews import BuildNewsList
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django import http
from django.contrib import admin
from django.template import RequestContext
register = template.Library()
def news_now (context):
#who = request.user ## this doesn't work
news = BuildNewsList()
entries = news.buildnewslist()
return {'entries': entries, 'who': who, }
register.inclusion_tag('news_list.html', takes_context=True)(news_now)
Separately I have a file ne开发者_如何学Cws_list.html and overall the templatetag works. I just haven't been able to pull in the value of request.user in this templatetag.
Would appreciate any pointers. Thanks. Kevin
... it could look like this:
u = context['request'].user
Do you have django.core.context_processors.request
in your settings.CONTEXT_PROCESSORS
? If so, make the first argument to the tag the request object and then you should be fine.
If that tag takes_context
, then after adding django.core.context_processors.request to settings.CONTEXT_PROCESSORS there will be context['request'].user available.
Moreover, after adding django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth to settings.CONTEXT_PROCESSORS, there will be context['user'].
Just to be a little clearer on the description of the solution.
In your settings module, set (or create) the CONTEXT_PROCESSORS variable like so:
CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth'
)
Then in your view templates you can simply use {{ user.username }} to refer to your currently logged in user object.
This works because the django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth module adds the 'user' variable to the context dictionary. This is nearly equivalent to:
ReqCon = RequestContext(Request, {'user' : Request.user})
html = t.render(ReqCon)
return HttpResponse(html)
